Overview
This is a boss-showcase video for an Infernalist minion Witch, demonstrating a single build taking down three different Citadel bosses back-to-back. Rather than a step-by-step written guide, the footage is built to prove the build’s pinnacle-boss capability, with the creator pointing viewers to a full endgame build guide in the video description for the detailed setup.
The army leans on durable summons — including Powered Zealots that ramp up as a fight goes on — that hold up even in hostile arenas like a lightning-resistant boss or a burning-ground phase. Survivability is handled through energy shield recharge, letting the minions stay on the target while the player kites the dangerous mechanics.
Because this is a showcase rather than a teardown, treat the specifics below as a high-level summary; the linked endgame guide is the authoritative source for gear and gems.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Proven against three distinct Citadel bosses on a single setup
- Minion army stays alive through hazard-heavy boss phases (lightning resistance, burning ground)
- Powered Zealots scale up over the course of a fight for strong sustained pressure
- Hands-off damage — minions tank and deal while you handle mechanics
Cons
- Video is a boss showcase, not a full written guide — details live in the linked endgame guide
- Citadel/pinnacle-focused; leveling and budget pathing are not covered here
- Minion builds can struggle with visibility in cluttered, dark boss arenas
Key Skills
- Powered Zealots — the standout minions, ramping damage as the fight progresses
- Infernalist minion package — the summoned army that carries both clear and single-target
- Energy shield recharge — the defensive loop that keeps you alive through boss phases
Gear & Anointments
The video does not break down gear piece-by-piece; the creator directs viewers to a dedicated endgame build guide in the description for the full item, gem, and passive setup. Specific uniques and rolls to be confirmed against that source guide.
Endgame Notes
The entire video is an endgame demonstration — three Citadel bosses cleared on one build — making it a useful capability check for anyone considering an Infernalist minion Witch for pinnacle content.
