What are most Meta cookie-cutter and Most powerful builds right now?
Howa is like a huge middle finger to Hyaon's Fury, one that invalidates and violates it so badly a fury should be deleted from someones stash everytime a Howa is upgraded ^^.

" I wouldn't be so sure about that. Sure, with enough int HoWA shits all over hyaon's, but that's an entirely different niche it inhabits. I tried hyaon blade flurry raider at the very end of last league and works INCREDIBLY well. Thing is, hyaon's fury uses a different approach: you try to get lots of flat lightning damage and frenzy charges while the weapon provides the increases, whereas with HoWA you collect int and increases while the weapon provides the flat damage. It's very similar, yet completely different :D I make dumb builds, therefore I am.

The issue is you can't run Hyaon's with high frenzy charges because you take a lovely 21-30% more damage as an evade char (lol)
HoWa encourages the same behaviour but does vastly more damage, much more safely then just to insure it had no downsides they put some weapon ele on it, made it fast and didn't even make the lightning damage local ^^ It truly is a work of art, they even made it drop from every breach so we can all run around with the monument to hyaon's fury |

" BACK TO TOPIC! poebuilds.io says something like this: sorted by numbers top 100 players 1. blade flurry assasin and inquisitor. more assasin. both sc and hc 2. flameblast elemantalist spell totem -- mostly on hardcore 3. vaal spark most on sc 4. Summong raging spirit necro! one of the most played builds in top 100 in both leagues. 5. Blade vortex even after all the nerfs most of them are pathfinder. some of them are berserker?! 6 coc most on sc some on hc 7. Essence drain occultist. (many occultist, less trickster) most on hardcore nearly zero an softcore 8. Earthquake/zyclone slayer -- most on HARDCORE! (so melee and lifebuilds are not viable?!?!?!) MApping I think flameblast totem and blade vortex are the slowest builds but can kill bosses more easy for bosses I think essence drain and vaal spark sucks. Can not rate them. I Think most of the builds are a 1 or a 0 and some builds are 0,5 in terms of gamecontent. 0 = can not do them or is super bad 0,5 = can do the content but its realy hard/slow/not efficient 1 = can do the content and is ok speed vaal spark, mapping/exp grinding = 1 boss endgame =0 blade vortex, mapping/exp grind= 0,5 boss farmer= 1 Would love to know the tier 1 builds. Who can do efficient farming/grinding maps even with hard mods and go to level 100 AND go for endbosses. tier 1 I think is BF, Slayer builds with poison/bleed shit what else? I think most of the builds are in one part of the game realy clunky. Some Flameblast totem guide writer show some videos how "Fast" they can clear gorge... 3minutes they need! xD other people need 1minute. some other people show "boss killer" builds and died 4times some other facetanks the boss.. --- TEMPUS FUGIT ---

If you take a look at the forums and reddit these days you would notice that the most OP build these days is easily: Dual Wielding Credit cards
ZiggyD is the Labyrinth of streamers, some like it, some dont, but GGG will make sure to push it down ur throat to make you like it

" I think it wasn't nerfed or anything. People just switched to something else. Like with Facebreaker Shield charge - it was pretty popular build in Prophecie and still among the fastest clear speed builds. " What kicked in? " On topic post :o I didn't knew that CoC is still popular and surprised about Necro SRS. :o I will add them. Essence Drain doesn't suck. It can kill even Shaper pretty quickly - it just can't facetank anything (you need to actually dodge stuff, move around and rely on your skill) and requires heavy investment for higher end content. Other builds that actually are T1 in both map clearing and boss melting: Chaos Animate Weapon. It's breeze for mapping and any boss (Except Shaper) melts in seconds. Poison Bows / Classic Crit Bows. They clear like crazy and Barrage takes care of Bosses really well. Flameblast Vaal RF builds that can reliably burn with Vaal RF. I think they can one-shot Guardians. CoC Burning Vortex. I don't know why more people don't play this. It is simply insane AFAIK. I doublt Slayer Poison stuff can do both mapping and bosses. No instant leech + Melee build...

To be honest, the slayer cyclone doesn't surprise me at all, even less with the melee range buffs. It's EXTREMELY safe to play due to insane leech, ubercull and reflect resist. Also cyclone can't really get stunned. Yeah, it CAN get stunned but that has no visible effect while moving with cyclone.
