So I've made builds for myself in the past, but for the most part, they've been fairly simple. Forbidden Rite has had my eye for a while now, and with the Trickster rework, decided to try to make my FR build also be my first new Trickster. Without further ado, https://pastebin.com/HhkdYu4J
Notable things about it: EB + MoM with a bunch of ES leech. These allow for an easy Divine Blessing Aura, solving any real mana issues. Vitality + a bit of recoup (more can be put on rare jewels if it still feels bad) to help with the life cost. Arctic Armor because I need pdr and it got buffed (also freeze immunity). Tempest Shield for some spell block and shock immunity.
Items used are mostly basic endgame options, with 1 unique. No awakened gems, elevated influence mods, etc.
In terms of Ascendancy choice, I decided to go for a more defensive set up. Getting both Soul Drinker and Spellbreaker, while taking Polymath for damage. ~~Forcing the ES recharge with Spellbreaker, combined with Wicked Ward, helps mitigate the downside of Ghost Reaver~~ (this is not how this interaction works. Probably going to remove Spellbreaker and Wicked Ward for other options). One Step Ahead seems like more of a QoL choice, with a bit of damage, than anything else. Getting Chill/Freeze avoidance elsewhere lowers the value in my eye enough to prefer other options.
Things I would like to eventually upgrade into: getting a Forbidden Flesh/Flame combo in, and finding a way to sustain RF for bossing. I have no idea how to add Eater and Exarch implicits into PoB, but looking to add things like Brittle Ground and Unnerve on Hit.
I'm not a master at making builds, so copy at your own risk. Any additional eyes to help improve my starter for Kalandra would be appreciated as well!
