3.21 | EK STILL DESTROYES ENDGAME - PoE Igntie EK Leaguestart Guide

Guide by Allie https://www.twitch.tv/Allliee_ https://www.youtube.com/c/Alliee Even though this guide was released mid 3.20 this is meant to be leaguestart friendly for both mid 3.20 and for 3.21 baring any changes. Leveling IF YOU FIND A CHAOS ORB Priority of things to buy from trade: Martyr of Innocence - This staff basically gives you 3x dmg at lvl 52 and can hard carry you. Berek's Respite - Gives you 1 additional link and can drop Ignite Prolif If you are leveling this as not your first character, feel free to use whatever leveling technique you'd like. Either Hollow Palm or just Spark->Wave of Conviction with leveling gear. 3.21 Changes Overall GGG made leveling more annoying for basically every build in 3.21. It will take us a little bit more effort to get to Act 4 for WoC but it should still be ez with Spark. Snipers Mark mule instead of onslaught in act 1. Better Reservation through the mana mastery. Loss on Onslaught, Non Crit Lightning Mastery More annoying to get good wands when you need specific bases now Arcane Surge Nerfed - No global spell dmg only cast speed, still ok for Spark All 3.20 -> 3.21 changes in pink Act 1 >>DO THIS FIRST<< - >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Mule Pierce from a Ranger <<<<<<<<<<<<<< Witch DOES NOT get Pierce in Act 1 and you will not replace it until Wave of Conviction. Pierce CARRIES Spark. Just make a Ranger, kill Hillok, and go to the tidal island and kill Hillrake in your stash then make your Witch. >>DO THIS FIRST<< - >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Mule Snipers Mark from a Ranger <<<<<<<<<<<<<< Witch DOES NOT get Sniper's Mark in Act 1 and you will not replace it until Wave of Conviction. Just make a Ranger, FINISH Mudflats, and put the Sniper's Mark in your stash then make your Witch. ^^^^^^^^ DO THAT FIRST PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^ DO THAT FIRST PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^ DO THAT FIRST PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ^^^^^^^^ (Dont ask me why Spark sucks if you didnt mule at the start) (GGG Nerfed it in 3.21 too thanks ggg :3 ) Look for MS boots in town & use 2 wands (Look for Spiraled Wand eventually for added light dmg) Look for BBG anything in town before going to Coast. If no BBG then BG 2 link minimum. Wand Vendor rec killed by ggg in 3.21 Look for Spiraled Wand now or you will level slower without it Try to get 2 Alts by level 8. Pick up and vendor rares or ID'd blues for alt shards. Buy Spark from vendor, link it to Pierce and go to Mud Flats first. Level 4 After Mud Flats is over and you are in the cave, tp back to coast waypoint and go get medicine chest. Take Orb of Storm from Egg quest and buy Frost Bomb from Nessa. Take Frostblink and buy Arcane Surge. Keep Arcane Surge at a low level and link it to Spark. (change from 3.21 on Arcane Surge) Use Orb of Storm then stand there and cast Spark. Use Frost Bomb on any clumped packs and keep running, it will 1 shot mobs in Act 1. Level ~8-9 Once you kill Brutus take Flame Dash. Wand Vendor rec killed by ggg in 3.21 Look for Spiraled Wand now or you will level slower without it Go pew pew rest of Act 1. Act 2 BANDITS: Kill all Level 12 When you get new wands, if they have an open prefix craft Added Lighting to Spells on them for 1 Transmute. Do this every time you get new wands Level 16 Take Herald of Thunder as a quest reward and use it. Take Controlled Destruction and link it to Spark. Put Arcane Surge on Flame Dash. Killed by ggg in 3.21 Look for Spiraled Wand now or you will level slower without it Do another vendor recipe for wands but with Blue quality rings or skip this one and do it at level 20. Level 20 Wand Vendor rec killed by ggg in 3.21 Look for Spiraled Wand now or you will level slower without it Go pew pew Act 2. Act 3 Start looking for: BBBG for Spark - Added Lightning Damage - Pierce - Controlled Destruction Level 24 Buy Purity of Elements from the vendor. Go to the Library and do the quest for Siosa From Siosa buy: Buy Grace & Vitality. Use Vitality but don't level it toooooo much. Act 4 Stay Spark until you can afford to buy Ignite Prolif for 1 Alch Do lab now if you haven't, it should be ez mode. DONT SWAP BEFORE YOU HAVE SHAPER OF FLAMES Look for BBBR Once you kill Malachai buy Ignite Proliferation. Drop Spark and run Wave of Conviction - Added Lightning Damage - Ignite Prolif - Cruelty Go back and buy Anger & Discipline. Rush Eldrich Battery to fix all mana problems, dont use Discipline until then. Buy Arcanist Brand, Combustion, Flame Surge, Flamability and link all 4 together, use Arcanist Brand when you need a massive single target dmg boost. Replace Orb of Storms and link Arcane Surge to Flame Dash. Swap your added light wands for added fire now, look for any sort of dot multi, fire dot multi, added fire, spell dmg, ect on jewels and weps. Act 5-10 Keep following the skill trees for each act. Rush Eldrich Battery first then pick up all of the fire nodes as needed.
