PoE Champion, League Starter builds without Lightning Strike, Splitting Steel

hi everyone, recently the youtube algorithm decided to start showing me videos from the harvest/heist era and among them were zizaran's ground slam and alkaizer's earthshatter build, both champions using impale, and I know what you're thinking "slams are dead, seismic cry was pretty much removed from the game, impaler keystone was also nuked" but after some time on pob and comparing it with those builds, that doesnt seem to be the case especially because of the recently added echoes of creation helmet, which pretty much brings back pre nerf seismic cry effect more or less. would love to h

Honestly i give up on this one, i really wanna Leaguestart Vaal Smite, but i feel like i cant really scale the Damage properly. The PoB already has a bit of padding (Panopticon Annoint, active Flasks and a bit better than leaguestart gear) For anyone interessted or willing to fix the PoB: I'll test another PoB with Crown of Eyes Inquisitor, to see if that works, but Smite doesnt feel leaguestart viable :/ Edit: I tried making a Version with cheaper/more accessible gear, sadly i still have to fix tankiness PoB: [

So, I was looking at the new vaal cleave, and thinking to myself. "Hmmm, it looks like it would be REALLY good with the replica wings of entropy now. In theory it works wonderfully, considering you get to dip into the 2h passives, axe passives, and dual wielding passives. But I suck at PoB and usually its hard to meet the build that I made, so please guys/gals, I need some help lmao, Tell me what I can do to make this better. \Edit: I have taken some feedback and boosted my defenses a little bit, gave myself more life, took

Focus - (potentially Phase Run if the trigger immediately removes it) - Vaal Flicker Strike Make sure you're low enough on chaos res that forbidden rite deals 51% of life damage.

reduced damage taken 10% - taunt 10% - maddening presence less dmg taken 20% - fortify = 36% less dmg taken with enfeeble: 20-50% less dmg taken - enfeeble at ~150% curse effect = ~50-70% less dmg taken

Hi Everyone, I decided to give LS a try for the first time this league. I wanted to league start a build that I could clear all the game's content with without re-rolling another character since I hate leveling through the campaign so much. First off, I played Helix until about level 92, and that was terrible, and frankly I don't think I really want to repeat that process ever again. It was tolerable in the campaign, but not having the gear needed in a league start scenario to make switching to LS feel good until level 92 was less than ideal. However, around level 92 I was very fortunate and

I do this because, depending on your gear, different suffixes will be necessary at different stages. As a result, there are plenty of suffix positions open to get all the resistances or attributes that you need. See the conf
