PoE League Starter, Melee, Physical builds

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,

&x200B; Very straightforward and tanky enough build, all the items are easily gotten in the first days. With a better weapon, stack more damage in the items and you can squeeze much more dps out of this. Frenzy charge generation will be huge. A lot of potential here? Glad is one of my favourite ascendancies so I'm happy to start with this.

Pobbin link here. Idea is that I can scale fire res to high heavens for All res, Armour, and life regen. Then convert that armour to Damage with replica dreamfeather. replica dreamfeather isn't too bad to solo farm. Formless flame as well. Getting red nightmare will probably be a nightmare. Red nightmare is edited to represent the tattoos for that area. Just... the damage seems extremely bad, the movespeed seems extremely bad. Just feels like I'm hinging on trauma support being good way too much. I thought about Kaom's spirit, but with trauma I think it wou

Hope everyone had a good leaguestart. I made a theory craft on bloodseekers before launch and everyone was worried about the availability. However on day 1 I had bought 10 claws on average of 10c each. However after I posted about it in a thread, the price skyrocketed. But a 400pdps claw and instant leach for 1-2 div is still really good. Now I have cleared all the pinnacle bosses except the uber versions. I crafted every piece of my gear and almost min maxed everything. Currently with all my clones up it's around 30 mil dps. Normal is 5 mil. I can facetank not 1 shaper beam, but 2 at a ti

Hey folks! Would appreciate some of you looking over the PoB I made for what I want to league start - Double Strik Berserker! I tried keeping it as budget as possible and as realistic as possible (5Link, not enabling Totems for clearing DPS, no level 100 Tree shenanigans). Most of the DPS is carried by an Abyssus (no Aspect of Carnage tho) so I'm not 100% on how weak I'll be to physical damage. I'm at 20k Armour without Flasks and next three points would go into either Adamant or Inexorable Wheel. I also invested heavily

I don't think lacerate overall is optimal but I think I have pretty decent results with what I have. 1.2m dps against sirus with poop gear for league start, 4.9k hp and 60% block. 2.5m dps against sirus with a bit of investment in uniques. (although I lose around 400 life) I would love if anybody would tell me how to reach an even higher ceiling (+3m dps) or just any sort of improvement for the build, Im not the best at pathing and I am learning to craft items.

-------------------------------------------------------- FOREWORD AND NOTES: This build has been adjusted for the great nerfening of builds from the 3.15 patch notes. The bad news is that this build lost a lot of damage, but the good news is that we get multistrike with Shield Charge and it should make this skill good enough. I am currently assuming that Shield Crush will have the same bonus damages apply as Shield Charge, in which it got changed to 4 to 6 from 3 to 4. It is also possible that Shield Crush will have the same bonus damages as Spectral Shield Throw, in which that got changed

Heyo, So i've been working on a shield charge/shield crush Glad making use of bleed and challenger charge nodes for league start. I got to work on this after reading a few other posts regarding this skill and thought I would throw my pob in to the mix for some optimization from the community! &x200B; After seeing " While reviewing this skill, we've made changes to all skills that deal damage based on Shield Defences, greatly boosting their damage. " I am hopeful these buffs were enough to offset the nerfs to melee phys and brutality(both of which this build uses) The build is pretty

Okay, I know there's been quite a few shield crush build theories and discussions recently on this sub. But I've put together a decently geared character on PoB using Shield Charge as an analog and it's actually looking really strong despite lacking the ability to use a strong MH weapon with the good bleed mods you'd find on "normal" bleed builds. &x200B; I made the shield 2500 armour, which I think is perfectly achievable via Deafening Dread essence crafting. And the tree is level 98, which to me is fine because its someth

-------------------------------------------------------- FOREWORD AND NOTES: This is a tweaked build from u/Spandauer2129 because I got bored and wanted to see if it was league start viable. Barring Patch Notes nerfing everything to the ground, I think this is a decent starter. This build was made on 7/17 BEFORE Patch notes. If this is popular enough, I will make better versions and see how far I can push it. I plan on making adjustments to the build once patch notes hit and we get the 3.15 passive tree. This build is intended for easy to get gear that doesn't require a lot of resources or
