I wanted to pick a league starter that is a really smooth mapper and can at least do the (non-uber) pinnacle bosses + the feared. Arc doesn't have nearly the damage of other ignite skills like WoC or Vaal FB but to me, it has the smoothest playstyle. With the new reworked Singularity and Thunderfist you can get some very decent Vaal Arc dps for bosses. In fact, socketing arc in thunderfist is better than 6 linking it. If they're cheap you could even attempt to corrupt for +2 duration gems to scale vaal arc further. This of course is assuming that Thunderfist is cheap on league start, which

Hello! I've been playing every weekend since league start and I just picked up my 5th Exalt from the ground, so during my work hours I've been brewing this Poison Spark build: <-- Original 4k Life + 96% Stun avoid version <-- Newer 100% Spell Suppress but 3k Life + 40% Stun avoid version Concept - Ashes of the Stars can give up to 30% quality to all gems, and +1 level to all skill gems. - 20% Quality Phantasmal Spark now converts 100% Lightning Damage to C

Pob fork: Disclaimer: I only play solo/with IRL friends, so this is technically SSF. I don't give a fuck about meta, I play to have fun. I league started with this build in mind and created it as I went. So, this is honestly my very first self-made build. So far so good, both the clear and single target feel good. I stumbled upon the combination of Sniper's Mark (spellslinger) + Pierce. You never have to think about what target is marked due to the fact that Marks are no longer a namelock skill. It also works beautifully because of how Subprojectiles work now:
