The Easiest of the Easy Beginner Build Guides [1.1 SotV UPDATED]

Perhaps something like this could work. I haven't tested any of this mind you. Last time i played this build was in beta and it was a bit different then.

Forsaken masters skill tree for endgame not for leveling:

This build precedes most builds. I remember playing this back in beta. It has been nerfed many times. Every time we have to find a way to get it going again.

Back in the days we could run anger + wrath + grace all on life with blood magic keystone. That was very popular and beginner friendly.

Back to the build at hand: I am not sure it's worth getting those shock passives in witch area. Before patch it used to be 20+10% shock chance. Now it's 10+5%
Again a nerf for this build.

Is it worth it? I am not sure. If conductivity curse is not also nerfed maybe we can use that too?

Passive tree 1-20 points



Passive tree 21-40 points



Passive tree 41-60 points



Passive tree 61-80 points



Passive tree 81-100 points (About lvl 80)



Hope this was of help for some people.

Hey Ziggy,


I'm currently following this build, well and interpreted version of it since the update. But I have a few question if you have the time. You can find me online most nights or just message me on here, thanks.
