This is still one of the best league starter out there. Maybe the best now after all the other nerfs to raider, etc. I will try this build with cold conversion to maximize damage. It will be fun. I am going to update by Friday and almost done with full miner leveling guide.


This build is amazing so im super excited your going to update. Build seems to have come through the nerfs fairly well all things considered.

Only recommendation to you is if you go full cold conversion for damage that you also keep the budget (lower budget at least) version as with the nerfs and "slowing" of the league it might take longer for people to get currency etc so lower entry costs might be more of a consideration this league then any other league.

Thanks for the great guide again
Guide is updated with 3.15 PoB Passive Tree updates. I've also added a very detailed leveling guide. All feedback welcome on the structure.

Here is the new leveling guide: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wwSyztb8TrWczQgZgxOU2zj0lmJi-DHLJ14ObH7jxdg/edit?usp=sharing

Very nice guide! You specify that we should start converting to LL by level 80. But when exactly should we go low life. For example, i got a 6link currently with the life version at lvl84. But ive also obatined my shavs 5L and prism guardian. Would i be able to switch, or do i wait for chayula amulet since i dont have that yet. Also would i be doing a lot less damage on my 5L shavs?
I got baited in to playing fireball miner (it was really bad could not even do t1 maps comfortably)
then i switched with the fireball miner tree to ball lightning because i do not have 120 regret orbs yet.

Now I'm pretty comfy playing ball miner even with wrong tree.
I'm really looking forward to some currency so i can try LL version but i have about 1% of currency needed at the moment.


but it gives me something to aim for heh.


btw explosives expert is nerfed, do we still take it over demolition specialist?
I feel pretty, Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty, and witty and gay,
And I pity Any girl who isn’t me today!

i would suggest to get the chayula also. a little bit more farm and convert when you have the 3 uniques. Converting Level 80 recommendation is minimum recommended level. I wouldnt focus too much on Level 80, but have the require must have items. Level 80 is about right to have enough currency in general for me. It can be Level 82 or so, it doesnt matter.

sell all basic currency (Chromatic orbs, fusings, etc), convert everything to exalted orbs early. Sell all items in stash tabs priced 2c, 5c, 10c etc. Also definetely do the chaos orb recipe (do not ID rares between Level 63 to 74). Sell a set, convert everything to exalted orbs.

About Explosive Expert, still the best option for damage. Summon Skitterbots provides auto chill and shock for us.

Thanks, i was wondering about that for long time, because some people give demolition specialist "must have" status in guides. But i never liked it because i rarely stack mines, i just throw and explode in instant.

Now i got

but will save some more before switching

i also have 50 to 70 cold and fire damage on my ball because of my rings, so i believe even without skitterbots i got like 80%chill and burn chance with 100% shock
so i'm likely to get full benefit on all attacks

3fuses to 6l and 45 chaos for base


Before someone claims that i'm lucky, i spend 12k fuses in previous 3 leagues with no 6 link.

Now i need chayula, shield and 150 regret orbs to switch
it is first time in over 10 years that i'm going to be ES based(i always just went full life+armor)

but i see that this time around we truly need to low life more multiplier, because ggg decided to shrekt all support gems.
