Hey all - first time creating my own build, wondering if anyone has any helpful suggestions to make it better!

Original idea for the build comes from Zlayge's HCSSF build, which dips down to the bottom-left of the passive tree to get more armor and health and stuff, as well as balance out the stats for Leadership's Price. Apparently guys have done HC Ubers with that set-up, but since I'm playing soft-core trade, I wanted to see what I could come up with sticking to the right side of the tree with the goal of using the character as a league-starter, with potential to scale up to whatever.

So far it seems to be doing quite well! My current build is lvl92, and has been comfortably running all sorts of corrupted T16 maps without bothering to even look at the map mods. I've been running Essences and generally am able to take down pretty scary ones without too much difficulty, and this is with only about 3.2k life and pretty crappy gear! It has farmed a few faceted fossils at about 200 depth in delve, done well on a variety of T16 league mechanics, and I've downed several of the end-game pinnacle bosses with this set-up (haven't had time to try them all), so I'm feeling pretty good it will work well at league-start.

Overall thought process for the build was to get spell suppression and ailment immunity from the tree, and then remove those points as suppression and immunity are achieved through gear upgrades. Haven't gotten to that point yet, but have lots of ideas of next steps that could be taken. Maybe even add some cluster jewels at some point!

Below is a scaled down version of the build with a lvl82 tree and 0% lvl18 skill gems, and PoB is showing up to 15 million theoretical DPS on pinnacle bosses. I say theoretical because I really don't think you're getting anywhere near full projectile hits with Blazing Salvo. But it sure is fun in maps!

The second set-up is my current state of the character that has a few lvl21 gems, Devouring Diadem (self-farmed - first try!), Leadership's Price, and a bunch of self-crafted but generally lackluster gear. At this level of investment the theoretical dps is more like 40+ million DPS on pinnacle bosses. Although PoB doesn't seem to add the ailment effects from Leadership's Price, so I manually set them to what it says is the max you can get on pinnacle bosses. Not sure if I'm doing that part right.

Anyways, I'm really interested in hearing constructive feedback on the build. Are there other cheap unique items that can be used in early mapping that would help out? Any ideas on how to get more bang out of the passive tree, or other make the build even better? And is there anything I totally screwed up in PoB? I'm definitely still learning!

And thanks!
