PrimSchooler's Notes

One last minute guide that I made after seeing Ziggy's video on Exile Levelling and the AHK script, updated my Hierophant POB with levelling trees and thought I'd share:

I plan to level with Rolling Magma into Wintertide Brand till level 38, where I swap to Ball Lightning and continue using it from there. Muling Arcane Surge from Witch is probably worth it if the servers are stable tonight. brainfart, you get it from vendor after Mercy Mission.

It's not a record breaker but it should be pretty decent, if Wintertide Brand starts feeling bad in Act 3 you can switch to Ball lightning earlier, I want to wait for Unleash but in Sanctum I swapped at 28 and it was OK.

EDIT: I also ended up using Creeping Frost to some extra single target during the Wintertide Brand section.
