PoE Hardcore, Chaos builds

So, I basically exclusively play self-made builds that are usually at least somewhat off-meta. Those builds vary widely in their success and often end up failing. However, every once in a while an idea works out. This is looking to be one of those ideas. Non-Reaper bleed minions have been a bit of a "white whale" of mine. I've probably crammed out dozens of PoBs with good enough damage numbers, but they mostly just ended up feeling pretty bad in real gameplay. This one felt pretty nice however.

Now I'm brainstorming more Jugg builds with these items that may be able to take on some Ubers. I have two builds in mind, a higher end HoAg and Summon Reaper. Here are some scuffed PoBs fo

Storm Brand HoA Jugg is my favourite build in PoE. I have seen some players in both SC and HC trade make this build work every league but they are not SSF friendly at all. I have been trying to make it work in SSF for a couple of leagues and I think I have found a version that I am happy to share in this subreddit. This build does not have a ton of dmg but the uptime is fantastic and the tankiness is through the roof. A downside to some people is that this build requires you to do heist to get some important items and uniques that help the build a ton but they are not mandatory for early progr

Tick focused, despair, and Malevolence for boss fights, unticked to not inflate pob dps. Obviously you wont have everything up and running and ramped up 24/7. No awk gems. 10k phys hit from boss to simulate survivability with one shot attack Wasp Nest is a great 1c unique for early game and new players.
