Rampage/Beyond: What's your "main" character?

Assuming here that most people focus on one character in the challenge leagues at first, what class/build is your main character? Happy with your choice?

I wanted to try something fresh and went with an evasion-based Puncture/SA/Chain ranger (phys crit). New playstyle for me, since previous bow-users had never really worked well for me past mid-merciless. This one plays very well so far (77 in Rampge), though desync is a bit of an issue that I have to get used to (normally playing totem/summoner builds). But really happy with the build.

What about you?
I'm very fucking happy lol though obviously it's not as powerful as my standard char but never less I mf flawlessly with do flawless damage which is good enough for me.

My goal is to get a god tier bow upon rampage hopefully



RNG's a painful obstacle... but hey I'm fucking Apathy I get what I want.

Flame blast templar in Beyond, currently 81. Wanted a burn build to deal with the spawning beyond mobs. Works very well playing solo and non crit. First one died at 50 something to a box. Still need quality gems, a 5L, and a few pieces of gear to add speed and survivability. Probably not an Atziri char but will be able to solo high maps.
Phys. "crit bow" Shadow, started with Split arrow, but now I'm loving Tornado shot & Puncture single target. Running blood rage, hatred, both heralds & using assasin mark for power charges.

It's supposed to be a crit build, but havent found any good crit bows yet, so I still make do with Chin sol (loving the shotgunin' at close range), while LG is in linking phase (let me re-iterate how f***ing I hate socketing & linking! ><)

gear at lvl 88


I like this build and Ill be playing it for some time. All the gear was found, socketed & linked by me with orbs I found myself. Gems self-leveled too.

I especially like that I had some nice drops that directly benefited this build as I planned it from the start: Chin Sol, LG, Ming's

I generally love the xpansion & playing in Rampage.

Sword-based melee ranger. Level 82 and smashing content. Actually planning to do a writeup, when I get back from vacation.

Playing rampage as I get far too attatched to my Chars to play Beyond. My char is a Shadow, specifically a low life reaver. I have 9 (will be 10 after a while) Auras and herald of ice. I am currently at lvl 68 and having a blast.

CI crit dagger reave shadow in rampage using incandescent heart and hybrid evasion/armor. Working really well now but getting started as a CI build was predictably miserable.

Crit Ice Shot pierce Shadow, it's a pretty fun build as everything just explodes into bits and pieces.

Current gear


It's not the best gear there is but it's mostly crafted from random lucky alchs and I haven't had much trouble clearing maps with it (yet).

The only real problem I've had so far is with random "allies reflect physical damage" rares getting me killed pretty much instantly.

I generally commit myself to one character per league, unless the build falls apart by mid-Merciless.

I've leveled a Duelist Split Arrow/Frenzy build to 71 so far - and I think I'll keep going with him. I've not had a problem with crit, but rather with life.

My gear is not great all, making do with this bow at the moment.
