Any one here into Path of Exile? I'm ready for the Betrayal League to start today.

I started on the Harbinger League in 2017 and made a molten strike duellist, which was predictably awful since I didn't use a guide or have a clue what I was doing. I returned for the Incursion League with a freezing spark templar which was pretty wild and I've just finished Delve League with E2's 't h i c c Jugg', modified with a few tweaks to suit my gear.

I'm still a junior player with only 320 hrs and 580,000 kills but I think if this league goes well I could smash the million mark if I really go all-in for clear speed (my freezing spark templar was a defensive build and the Jugg is a face tanker, neither massively quick or powerful).

Any good builds, stories or favourite u niques?

I would like to ask the same, I have just over 80h gameplay here and still feel very green. Any advice on where to search for best builds? Or maybe just what build is fun to play? smile

The best way to find decent builds is to Google the build number (e3.5c at the moment) and search for build guides there. There are loads of good builds on particular.com. The site also links to pathofbuild.com, where full passive trees can be displayed. YouTuber Engineering Eternity always does good builds.

There is so much variety to builds, it all depends on what you want to play. I did Engineering Eternity's Thicc Jugg Cleave build for Delve, even though it was made for Uber Lab farming. I didn't think it would be much fun but it turned out to be really effective and satisfying (and cleave is far from a trendy skill).

Some players love summoning totems or zombies and fighting from behind their summoned minions. I'm currently going for an elemental hit bow build. Any build that mentions the 'arc' skill will be monstrously powerful. The art totem heirophant builds have been massively powerful for a while now.
