Hey everyone! I’m back for 3.24 with a completely overhauled Spark Leaguestarter! This time around we are playing as Hierophant and making use of the Widowhail bow to get 400%+ projectile speed with an attainable leaguestart budget. The ascendancy and passive tree provide enough damage for us to get through the campaign making use of Faster Projectile support and defensive auras, for a leveling experience that is smoother than ever.

The defenses start off as left side tree mitigation layers, such as determination, arctic armor, endurance charges and a ton of block and spell block from Rearguard. We will quickly graduate to a rare quiver, and in turn transition into avoidance based right side defenses of Spell Suppression, Evasion, Ghost Shrouds, and Freeze. The build makes use of EB+MoM to escape the mana cost nerfs.

I am really excited to be back on the SPARK train this upcoming league launch! If you want to see a full leveling run there is an uncut SSF run with heavy commentary on my channel as well. It shows how I would approach a leaguestart, including the task of chaos recipe farming via heist pre-kitava, in order to afford the suggested uniques and possibly an early 6Link. If Widowhail ends up being in too high demand early, there are alternative early game options in the ‘Uniques’ section of the video, and its totally fine to delay the transition in this worst case scenario.

Let me know what ya’ll think! Can’t wait for 3.29 :D
