PoE Torment Scarab of Release

The Torment Scarab of Release in Path of Exile offers a strategic way to potentially increase the number of Tormented Spirits you encounter during a map run. Here’s a breakdown:

Boosting Tormented Spirits:

  • Conditional Release: When you slay a possessed monster (a monster with a Tormented Spirit attached to it), there’s a 25% chance that the Tormented Spirit will be set free. This can significantly increase the number of these special enemies in the area.

More Spirits, More Options:

  • Increased Threat and Reward: More Tormented Spirits translate to a potentially more challenging encounter, but also a higher chance of acquiring their valuable drops, including Torment blessings and currency.
  • Strategic Targeting: By focusing on eliminating possessed monsters, you can actively trigger the release effect and potentially manipulate the number of Tormented Spirits you face.

Things to Consider:

  • Balance is Key: While more Spirits can be beneficial, a large swarm might become overwhelming. Consider your build’s strengths and weaknesses before using this scarab.
  • Focus on Possessed: Remember, only possessed monsters trigger the release effect. Prioritize eliminating them to maximize the chance of freeing Tormented Spirits.

Alternatives:

  • Torment Scarab: This scarab simply increases the base number of Tormented Spirits that spawn in the map, offering a more straightforward approach.
  • Other Scarabs: Consider using scarabs focused on different mechanics depending on your needs. For example, Breach or Legion scarabs offer encounters with alternative content and loot pools.

Who should use it?

The Torment Scarab of Release is ideal for players who:

  • Want to strategically manipulate the number of Tormented Spirits encountered.
  • Enjoy the challenge of facing a potentially larger horde of these enemies.
  • Are confident in their build’s ability to handle a more intense encounter.

Remember:

The Scarab of Release adds an element of strategic control to your Torment experience. However, be prepared to adapt your tactics if you unleash a larger-than-expected swarm of Tormented Spirits.
