Hi all, I league started with Champion Elemental Hit and took it as far as I could go with the limited knowledge I have with crafting and mechanics. I went with lightning conversion and Doryani's prototype as well as Quill Rain which has been great but the damage has now fallen off quite a bit and I was wondering if there something I can do to make this build go any farther so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much! POB:

I wanted to league start CF Champion this league, but after the suggested changes from KB wander to Spectral throw, I though I'd try to find another option. Thus the Blade Flurry channeling Reap/Exsanguinate, Corrupting Fever / Corrupting Cry Champion was born. From act 6 to 2 watchstones this has been super comfortable, 8/10 clear, 8/10 bossing, basically a one button build, for less than 150C invested. Run up to a pack, short channel, pack explodes, hit CF to keep Adrenaline up every 20 seconds, hit boss with Vaal Reap and

Hey guys, I finalised my build, this is what I'm going to league start with in a couple of hours. Basically DoubleStrike Frostbreath Champion. The issue with boneshatter has always been singletarget, we fix this by snapshotting: Build stack of trauma via Frenzy + Rage + Trauma support. Then dropping a bunch of totems. Pop Vaal DoubleStrike, get 4x clones to slap bosses with. The gear is extremely budget, like extremely. Every buff is maintainable: Frenzy charges via frenzy on bosses Rage via Rage support Adrenaline via petrified blood + lifeflas

Hey, I've decided on Double Strike Trauma after some thinking. I'm just using plain gear to then go into tainted pact, if everything works like usual Vaal Double Strike snapshots your current stats and the singletarget will be high with very little investment. Build has 1mil+ dps with budget gear, should be able to sustain trauma if I calculated it correctly. It has enlighten 3 and 1k accuracy rings because I was too lazy to fix the issues however you can just drop grace or determ for herald of purity or another aura before getting enlighten. The POB has both tainted pact tree and without,

Played lightning strike for a while this league as raider and figured i might league start it again as it felt very solid. Champion is the strongest choice in my opinion for a tri ele lightning striker right now though slayer is also a option for sure. Not much new can be said about champion at this point, permanent fortify synergy with perseverance is just too good, stacking armour and evasion and turning it into damage with a free onslaught on top. League startish pob, only 2 key uniques devouring diadem and perseverance. Both can be pricy at the start but are

I've been trying to work on a Cleave melee build to use for my league start on ps4 in a couple days but I'm pretty much a complete noob and I'm not sure how bad my build is right now, I don't really like crafting in games so I was trying to do a build with some cheap uniques instead of rares as much as possible. I played a Cleave build from the forum called Hank the Tank a few years ago, hence why I'm using Cleave, however it has since been deleted and so I pulled some inspiration from it as best as I could remember. The skill doesn't have to be Cleave, I also liked cyclone for example wh

Hey, this is my second build of the league, after the first ones failed as starters.I only play about 6 hours/week, so I have to optimize with very low currency.This one I can feel that really has the potential to be a very good league starter and cheap, and has lots of room to optimize. POB: &x200B; Concept is using Atziri Disfavor with Wilmas Requital to scale Ancestral Protector, with some aura scalling and a high level precision so I can use Precise Technique.

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: [

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

Guide written and maintained by Donkster5. You can find the forum post with links to other material here: I DO NOT ADD SUFFIXES, except very important ones, onto most of the gear. 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
