I’ll be the first to admit that I am not perfect at the game so I happily accept respectful corrections and constructive criticism. There’s always more to learn right?

But I saw a lot of demand for melee league starters, and since this was a build I knew a bit about and I hadn’t yet seen anyone covering a modernized version of it I decided to throw my hat in the ring.

In short we level with Woolie’s sunder juggernaut (great guide, I link it in my video description) then make the swap to bleed nodes once we hit maps. Can easily thrive on rare gear for a long while though obviously ryalathas is going to be an important upgrade eventually. The biggest expense is likely to be your bonkin’ stick, a rare axe.

I included several loadouts using POBs new system (big kudos to them as well, I am in awe of their hard work, the loadouts are such a big QOL change) just showing some fairly generic items we’ll want to aim for. This POB doesn’t show an ultra endgame expensive option, just the first major plateau once you’ve gotten an ideal weapon and a few expensive uniques.

Let me know if you have questions, and please forgive any errors, I would love to correct them if you see any.
