Suggestions for a new league starter
|
I know it's kinda early to think about starters, but I like to give 'em a try before I commit to playing a build 500+ hours. Worth to mention, I start with a "league starter" and I stick by it. I don't like levelling and as a result, I don't change builds mid-league.
The thing is, I don't wanna play the same build twice, there's just too much for the game to offer in order to get stuck in something that worked well once. As a result, I'm looking for a good lightning-based starter build. If I can't have that, than probably cold. What I can tell you is the following about the builds I played until now and I don't wanna to a re-play. * Flammeslinger (It's amazing, had the best time, currently at 600 hours in the league, farming fractured maps) * Explosive traps (Strongest cheap build I ever played. Its insane) * CoC builds (I played Volatile Dead, I invested over a mirror in items. Would have been more fun if my computer could have handled he 10 fps) * Totem builds (Terrible, didn't like the style, switched to aurabot and quite league first month) * Bane/ED Occultist (Was fun, but i didn't know much about poe when i played it) * Gladiator Lacerate - I find levelling strong, because I don't die. But I had a 20 minutes fight with AW4 sirus at level 92. A pain. * Juggernaut Earthshatter - was fun to try out a melee build, once. Felt like I had enough tho. * Summoners - not my style. Dun like it. * Toxic rain is just ugly. * Miners - from what I rad - are not recommended to someone that wants to play an entire league the same build. This being said, I considered looking into Hydrosphere or Discharge for next league. But the only relevant things I found was "not league-start viable". Worst case, I guess I could go some vortex-based build, but I hope for something more fun and not-DoT based. Therefore, could those of you who know more about this game suggest me some fun builds?

" imagine playing flameslinger, lame! :^D I would recommend minion build but because you are too stubborn to enjoy true greatness go for self poison build. I feel pretty, Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty, and witty and gay, And I pity Any girl who isn’t me today! | |
" Could you recommend any build in particular? |
|
" I would just wait for patch notes to pick specific self poison build based on the buffs/nerfs. Blade vortex is most popular i believe. But gosh does it feel wrong to recommend this stuff played by 95% of people. I feel pretty, Oh, so pretty,

Had great success with Gladiator Rain of Arrows in Heist. Bleed spec. Ensnaring arrow for bosses.
Blade vortex seems to be FoTM. Last edited by Shagsbeard#3964 on Mar 15, 2021, 8:19:57 PM

If I were playing trade MoM arc..
But there is no Cloak cards and its a jeweling nightmare. https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds?class=Elementalist&skill=Arc&sort=dps They get 50M + dps, are tanky as shit, and arc chains around corners. You gotta try arc. It's an Iconic PoE build like CoC and cyclone. Git R Dun! Last edited by Aim_Deep#3474 on Mar 15, 2021, 10:06:13 PM

" No offense to what you fancy, but after playing flameslinger he could not play anything less impressive than arc chain. I feel pretty, Oh, so pretty,
