I am playing holy relic guardian, had a decent start but got slow near act 7, but was great again when I bought a six link.
I also experimented with combining holy relic with purity of elements but this was a failure, because holy relic and not me do the killing->quite no herald of purity minions get summoned. Also experimented with herald of agony, this worked better but the damage became eventually insignificant and I need the aura reservation for defense. This build is not as tanky as I expected, that is also why I added purity of elements aura and dropped both herald of agony and zealotry. Will probably become tanky once I get decent armor during mapping, I should also get some chaos res. Am now in act 9. |

" Man sorry to hear that, I'm leveling the same build (like everyone else) and it's a blast on my end. DPS is bonkers up to act 7 where I'm at right now. It's so pleasing and easy to level, maybe you missed something? And I'm SSF so there's no real excuse here (no unique, no currency, just crucible gear). As for the infamous Poison TS Occultist, I was tempted to test it but just looking at the comments of the video of the poor bastards that tried it, did'nt take a Phd to see it sucked big time. But there are so many bull***t league starter videos out there... That's why you pick a league starter build, not a hipster "secretly OP" build. Nothing worse that starting fresh with that horrible horrible feeling to have wasted your start. |

I'm at the end of act 7 and so far, everything is dying immensely fast on 3 link shattering steel with Reaper's Pursuit that I bought for 1c. Just got 50% slower proj on a tree, so it's even more powerful due to AOE overlap.

Got to low yellows with seismic traps + exan with about 30c investment. Getting insta killed all the time now. The delayed damage of traps + delayed damage of poison really doesn't work with the league mechanic. Too many mobs that rush you and just run past the traps.

Poisonous Concoction has been amazing so far, such a smooth league start. All you need is a life flask and Plague Bearer.
I can't believe they actually made a new skill that doesn't feel like it's been nerfed 2-3 times already. I looked at PoB and with temp chains, spell suppression, some evasion and life recovered on kill this thing might feel pretty good in maps. And the most ridiculous thing - I copied this build from cutedog 3 hours after league start... Whenever you see 70K+ views on a clickbaity video THE MOST OP BUILD EVER, SIRUS A9 ON 2c BUDGET - stay away from that. And zizaran builds - all the noobies play them. And mathil builds - zero defence trash. |

I just wanted to be a tanky bastard now that armor is not bad (guess time to remove my forum signature)
So I went with an RF inquisitor, I will grab an aegis if my dmg isnt complete dog excrement, otherwise run with a searing touch... overall it is fine so far, but exposure immune maps are a pain But I already know I should have went with ED and do the classic low life ivory tower lowlife setup especially since the aura changes it would be way stronger... |

" I played Arc traps during Incursion and Lightning trap during Legion, smoothest leveling and mapping experiences I had but yet the playstyle is not for me never played again... Not sure how is on Phys Traps,,, |
|
" Static strike is pretty bad skill... you must hit something first right ? |
|
|
I have no idea what to play.

Dom blow guardian doing good things so far. True spell block capped in early maps and true attack block capped 40% of the time and 50% block the rest of the time.
Great damage on a 5 link so far too. A little worried about the rippiness of yellow/red scourged mobs deleting my support minions though. |
