The most overpowered class/skill/passive combination.

Yep, that's exactly how I became fond of OP builds. Always played frost/fire sorc or javazon and always complained about those damn hammerdins. One day I decided to level up one and loved it. My first thought when I saw the classes of PoE was "this Templar dude must be THE shit", but the universal passive tree makes the class choice almos unimportant, you just pick the best spot on the skill tree to start your build on.

Thanks for the feedback, I didn't think crit chance was working so well and gave up on Ice Spear at mid game, I should have tested it.

My most powerful was a full on summoner build. i hit every node except Necro Aegis and holy FUCK is it powerful. Get a totem support gem on summon skeletons and you can literally just toss a totem in a room, wait and have a smoke while they win for you.

You missed out if you didn't pick up Necro Aegis. If you wear an elemental resist shield you can even toss your skeleton totem into a room full of elemental mages. Though that may not work quite as well with the resist changes.

Also zombies with added health and damage are quite good. Don't forget to raise a couple spectres from something that does chaos damage. Spectre temple guardians are sick. *cackles evilly*

I played a pyro/summons/CI witch, backing up minions with fire storm/chance to burn/elemental proliferation. The only times I died in Merciless were to overconfidence.
