Hey guys, here with a day 4 build update, just wanted to say if you're still leveling with helix: STOP AND USE LS AND JUST SCALE PHYSICAL/CHAOS. We've tested this, and had multiple other people play it and it's so much better than painchamping through maps with helix. Make sure you have pierce from helmet enchant, anomalous lightning strike, or piercing shots on the tree. Make sure you have adder's touch on the tree. You're going to want to use phys daggers to level, such as temple daggers with the increased physical damage and physical damage as extra chaos, or a taproot is great. I cleared a t16 map with a taproot on a 5 link (I was still in elemental damage setup). Your links would be Vaal Lightning Strike -> Nightblade -> Multistrike -> Ancestral call -> unbound ailments and either added chaos or melee physical damage. That way it's LS through and through. Obviously if you have +1 strike gloves, you'd replace ancestral call.

​

Having said that, the daggers are down to like 40-50c, so maybe just better to grab one, but if you're just starting the league, mighty flay, a temple dagger, or taproot is amazing to carry you. Build is going incredibly smooth, we're almost 96 and soon going to start getting influence bases for big boi damage. Let me know if you guys have any questions or feedback!
