PoE Gladiator, League Starter, Melee builds

------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------CHEAT SHEET--------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SHIELDS: Shields are shown with specific values to show damage at those armor levels. Uniques are shown with mid-roll modifiers unless the uniques are very cheap (max attributes Carnage Heart). LEVELLING: Levelling trees are general recommendations. If you feel squishy or feel like your damage sucks, pick up damage/life nodes as needed. Make sure to keep upgrading your weapon with t

-------------------------------------------------------- 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

Build: Main question I was hoping to get answered is the question of DPS. Because my god everyone says something different when it comes to acceptable DPS. 1 person says min 250K is the goal while another says 2M is the goal on league start.

Pastebin: Write up: This is my last build of the league and a continuation of my endless delve character and ideas I wanted to work on after the event. I was really keen on running crit for bleeds and using staffs instead of the usual axes or bow builds that are quite popular on the ladder. The damage on this character is surprisingly huge considering that if it is scaled down with a budget version it'll do equally well with a budget of 20ex. A big reason for this is that there's absolutely no one doing crit staffs for a

I wanted to play around with Warcries and Ice Crash was just pretty, so I've been working on this build since league start. Nothing fancy yet as far as equipment goes, Ideally a + crit chest and a ring with frostbite on hit would be a better choice, but I've only put maybe 2-3 Ex worth of currency into this build. Handles T16 just fine, and while single target isn't great, with a little work this could get up to 1m Shaper DPS pretty easy, at least according to PoB. Let me know what you think, and any suggestions.

Hey guys, It's the first build idea that I'm uploading so far and I do it because I think it's practically broken. I think that the endgame version of this will be basically immortal (In most cases). First, here is my POB for endgame (min-max except for the weapon): And this is for league start (the jewels might cost a little bit but not more than 1-2ex for all gear together): Some of the things might look strange but I'll try to explain them briefly. So the idea

Posting my league starter, should be a viable build for doing all content in the game, i myself plan on starting this in SSF. don't mind the weapon it's just a place holder to simulating something i can get a day or 2 in. rest of gear is up to you playing.
