POE 3.4 Marauder Chieftain Righteous Fire Build - Low Budget & High DPS
"The Ancestors speak through your clenched fists"
The Chieftain is focused around fire damage with attacks and totems. He can greatly enhance the utility of his totems, making them more resilient, taunting enemies they hit, and weakening nearby enemies, or boost his own fire damage with physical-to-fire damage conversion.
Righteous Fire is a skill that lights you on fire, giving you more spell damage and burning you for a ton of fire damage per second, while also burning everything else around you in an AoE!

This differ slightly from the minmax pastebin up top ^ seeing as most players won't be able to get that tier of gear.
4 Link: BBBR
(Vaal) Righteous Fire, Elemental Focus, Increased Area of Effect (Concentrated Effect for bosses),Increased Burning Damage
IF you can get an elder helm, go for Supported By Burning Damage/Conc Effect/Essence of Horror. This allows you to use Arcane Surge + Swift Affliction instead of those 2 links. Arcane Surge adds a hidden "duration" tag to RF, allowing Swift Affliction to work. This is highest DPS setup.
Another option is Elder Helmet with Essence of Horror, Burning, Conc, and 4 Blue. RF, Ele Focus, Efficacy, Inc Area for more quality of life.
3 link: RRR IN DOON CUBIYARI
Cast When Damage Taken (as high as you can get), Molten Shell (as high as your CWDT will support), Life Leech, Iron Will (from Doon itself)
4 Link: RGRR
Shield Charge, Faster Attacks, Fortify, Brutality
4 Link: RRRB
Cast When Damage Taken (as high as you can get), Vortex (as high as your CWDT will support), Immortal Call (as high as your CWDT will support), Stone Golem (as high as your CWDT will support)

4-5 Link: RBBB (B)
Cast When Damage Taken (Level 1), Ball Lightning (level 4), Curse on Hit (as high as you can get), Flammability (as high as you can get). If you can get the extra blue socket, Orb of Storms will allow you to manually cast a spell that also curses for EE/EO. If you don't level Flammability past the level that CWDT is trying to cast, it will not do anything.

POE 3.5 Ranger Pathfinder Starter Blade Flurry Build (PC,XBOX,PS4)- Fast Speed, Cheap, High Damage
This build uses Blade Flurry as the main skill. It's still fine for clearspeed. It's not your clear 2 screens with one massive projectile skill clearspeed, but with enough attack speed you can just WB>hold for half a second and move on.
Nov
POE 3.5 Marauder Chieftain Starter Blade Vortex Build (PC,XBOX,PS4)- Fast, Cheap, Tanky, SSF
This build very cheap to get going. And even with brigthbeak nerf it should be very fast clearer. Its tankier than elementalist but it can't kill the whole screen with inpulsas.
Nov
POE 3.5 Duelist Gladiator Starter Herald of Agony Build (PC,XBOX,PS4)- Low Budget Viable, Endgame, Fast
This build should be a pretty good choice for a league starter as long as you don't want to go super fast. It will take a while to get all the desired items, but if you take a look at the low budget setup you'll see that you don't need much to get it going.
Nov
POE 3.5 Witch Elementalist Starter Blade Vortex Build (PC,XBOX,PS4)- Good Clear Speed, High Damage, Cheap Gear
This build fairly cheap to gear, not gated behind rare/expensive uniques. Good league starter, SSF is possible
Nov
POE 3.5 Templar Guardian Starter Dominating Blow Build (PC,XBOX,PS4)- All Version Viable, Cheap, Endgame
This build that is viable in both hardcore & softcore. Extremely cheap with TONS of upgradable options for end-game. If you are looking for a top tier league starter build, it's maybe suitable for you.
Nov
POE 3.5 Shadow Assassin Molten Strike Build (PC,XBOX,PS4)- Fast Life Recovery, Cheap, Tankly
This is a poison build that used to clear Shaper/Elder and all of their Guardians on a budget (see gear section). Uber Elder is also possible, though requires better gear.
