League starter
You can made golemancer as your league starter but need to do few things:
- Your starter build will be selfcast Arc Build, and you can switch to golemancer at lvl 40
- You dont need to buy anything on market , you just pick items from the floor so u can keep currency for your primordial jewels.
- You can easly do 10 acts + start doing maps without buying anything!
- When u get currency for primordial jewels u refund points and u can start playing as a golemancer. Like i said u dont buy anything from market as a arc because u dont need to. You just keep your currency for primordials.

[3.8] Enki's Arc Elementalist - a beginner & SSF-friendly Lightning Caster
With this guide I want to provide a well-balanced caster build for beginners and veterans alike that scales well into endgame, has great mapping consistency and can even be played selffound.
Don't get confused by this guides age - i'm doing lots of work to keep it updated each patch, and i'm playing the build once in each new league to test its viability, and because it's fun.
- + cheap & fully SSF-capable
- + smooth gameplay & progression
- + fully immune to reflected damage
- + capable to do all bossfights & mapmods
- - not as high DPS potential as some other builds
- - requires good positioning and flask uptime
- - Lightning has inconsistent damage output

[3.8] Fast Storm Brand Leveling Guide | League Starter | HC/SC
Hello, thanks for checking out this complete leveling guide for Storm Brand Elementalist. The purpose of this guide is to help players such as yourself to get through A1-A10 in much quicker times, especially useful at a league start when those that get to maps first often profit the most.
The guide provides 'Gem Links and/or sockets' sections to let you know of what your ideal gem setup looks like and will be included everytime there has been a gem or link change. At the end of each act (and before Merciless Labyrinth) there is a 'Passive Tree' section which includes a link to the official Path of Exile Passive Tree Planner, the name of the tree in Path of Building, and a handy little image if you don't want to use either.

Witch Necromancer
[3.8] PoE Raise Spectre Necromancer Starter Build
[3.8] PoE Raise Zombie Necromancer Easy Build
[3.8] PoE Raise Spectre Necromancer Starter Build
- + safe across most content. Bosses offscreening.
- + extremely fast for map clearing
- + around 70% potential Phys Damage Reduction (Basalt, Taste of Hate, etc)
- + decent regen
- + flexible, can stack a lot of block chance if needed
- + great single target damage (around 3 million with Victario)
- + much better than Zombies as you don't need to constantly resummon spectres, also you don't care if Skeletons die. So you effectively are PAIN-FREE.
- + can go Energy Shield and 5-6 spectres too! POGCHAMP!
- - Not super high sustain as we are running Vis Mortis with no life on it (around 7K for Uber Elder).
- - Spectres are a pain to resummon if they die
What are Spectres?
By using Spectres you are effectively summoning real monsters to fight for you. They will use all attacks and spells they naturally have. As well as will become stonger with level.
In order to summon a desired monster you need a corpse of this monster, target a corpse with "A" and press Summon Spectre.
Spectres scale with a level of the "corpse" they were summoned from, so in order to get powerful spectres you will have to summon/resummon them in a higher and higher level zones using Desecrate skill to recreate their corpses. I explained everything in the FAQ section below how to do it.
So.
You will summon 4 strong Spectres who will obliterate screens and screens around, while you zoom across the screen with your Shield Charge. Literally 1 minute clears...
For bosses we will have 9-10 skeletons who will Taunt the boss himself and monsters around as well as Blind them on hit and distract and annoy the hell out of everyone. And they don't need corpses too. And we don't care if they die... EZ PZ.

[3.8] PoE Raise Zombie Necromancer Easy Build
In poe 3.8, summon has been greatly improved. If you choose to summon as your league starter, this Raise Zombie Necromancer Build will be a good choice. You do not have to spend currency, you do not have to be good at the game, you really do not have to do anything special. All bosses (up to and including Shaper) just melt. Easy And Cheap
- - Clear speed isn't going to be quite as good as screen-clearing spectres or golems, especially if you don't have Fear jewelry.
- - A couple of bosses just melt your minions instantly and are basically impossible for the build. Atziri trio are the worst offenders.
- - Have to level as a different build (SRS) unless you have access to twinking gear.

Witch Occultist
[3.8] PoE Bane Occultist League Starter Build
[HC/SC] Lahkesis Queen of Chaos"Essence Drain/Contag/Bane"
[3.8] PoE Bane Occultist League Starter Build
- + Beginner and League Starter Friendly.
- + Never reroll a map.
- + Mind over Matter. Eldritch Battery.
- + Not that many buttons to press.
- - Uniques. A couple uniques really "turn on" this build for the endgame. Devouring Diadem and Vixen's Entrapment aren't 100% required to get this build off the ground but I will mention how some of the interactions of these items can make it easier to tackle the endgame.
This is a beginner-friendly, league-starter viable, solo-self-found viable, and comprehensive Bane Occultist guide. The leveling section in this guide is meant to take players with a fresh install or in a fresh league and get them into maps and started on a powerful character. Interested readers can find gear priority, stat suggestions, mechanics explanations, and a whole bunch of links that might be useful for newer players.

- + Very High Damage output
- + Decently tanky, safe to play
- + Do Any map Mod Can do reflect and no leech maps without problems and most other mods (no regen map mod requires mana flask)
- + All Content
- + HC Viable
- + Insane Amount of Health Regen
- + Fast Clear speed, fun playstyle Watching mobs die a Screen away
- + League starting is very possible
- + Great boss killer, can do any boss

Defensive Stats
The following stats do not include helmet enchantments like Enfeeble has 30% increased curse effect, assume players do not have their curse effects reduced as a map mod and monsters do not have any bonus damage map mods and the hits from monters do not deal critical strikes.
Total Curse Effect: 40% increase from skill tree + 25% increase from Ascendancy + 10% Blasphemy 20 quality = 75% increased curse effect for all curses
Physical damage reduction:
Basalt flask (15%) + 3 endurance charges (12%) + Lunaris pantheon (assume 8% at max) + Enfeeble (47% or 23%) = 65% physical damage reduction
Offensive Stats
Essence Drain can reach 3-4 million Shaper DoT and the hit damage can be ~ 150k Shaper DPS on average (which kills a lot of monsters before the DoT applies) with min-maxed gear. Other than that 500k- 1 million Shaper DoT is achievable with a multi-craft bow to do all contents.
Bane can reach 1.5 million Shaper DoT with min-maxed gear. If not, a few hundred thousand Shaper DoT is possible and enough for all contents.
