![[0.5] PoE 2 OMEGA MINION LEAGUE STARTER – DJINN BUILD - RETURN OF THE ANCIENTS - PoE 2 Builds](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/f21zpjOJWFg/maxresdefault.jpg)
Overview
This is the creator’s 0.5 “Djinn Master” minion build, pitched as an omega-strength league starter for the Return of the Ancients patch. The plan is to let a wall of minions do the work while you stay back and direct them, giving a low-stress, gear-forgiving entry into the league that can keep scaling as you gather currency. It is built around the Disciple of Varashta ascendancy and a minion-centric skill setup.
As a league starter, the appeal is accessibility: minion builds in Path of Exile 2 tend to play well on a fresh economy because the bulk of your damage and survivability comes from the minions rather than from expensive top-end gear. The creator maintains a full written guide and leveling guide alongside the video for the detailed step-by-step.
