I've played a couple of builds, and here are my top 3 choices i'm thinking about using in harvest.

(42 ex invested) Played Slayer + atziri's disfavour for like 4 years , now lately starforge..
4300Hp / 236k dps, with Fortify buffs. Can do T13 maps, Medium speed Clear, T16 Medium clear speed as well, but a lot of deaths...
[Vaal Pact] passive was terrible, b/c no regen ( and half the bosses now are story mode bosses with DOTS... )
You can't Leech, what you can't attack, but they can still do damage to you /facepalm...
Fully Phys, no reflects

(7ex invested) Frost Blades assasin 2 waspnests + belly of the beast.
3800 hp / 125k dps Can do T7 maps High speed clears, T11+ Medium clear speed, TONS of deaths.

(4ex invested) Necro Slave Pen Drivers + raging spirits
2500hp/2500es or CI with 4800 es , DPS 1,100 Raging spirits x20 , Minions unknown.
T7 Maps Medium clear speed, T11 slow clear speed ,T12+ No damage, just deaths on entering.
Character Movement speed, EXTREMELY SLOW AND BORING ( used a seven league step boots) Lost the +1 slave driver.
Much Faster movement speed !!!! , but a lot less dps.

Herald Stacker ( i like the play style with Etheral Knives ) Tempted to do an EK build, is it worth trying?

Otherwise, should I just make an AuraBot for the first week, Farm currency in party's, and see what everyone else is building?
No friends makes this hard....
Then make another character fast, and Blow a lot of currency to do that build, and make profits for rest of league?

If anyone else has any other build ideas that are easy to learn?
or maybe a build idea like mine? but Either a cheaper version or better version?
I've played POE for 7 years, but i haven't learned anything until the last 2-3 months honestly...
So im just looking for some general help here.

vd spell slinger , spectre , ball lightning miner , chaos spell slinger into self cast ed , bleed bow
all good starters with minimal gear

wont have much time for league start anyway and have not really looked at most the changes
probably will go with max block lacerate gladiator to farm up gears for something later

Remember to start it on hc ssf where all the best players play.

[3.11] Spellslinger VD Necromancer. All content. Easy and fast Sirus A8 kill. Wave 20 Simulacrum.
Thats an expensive build, and I know nothing about it.

Thinking I'm Going to limit myself to something easy.
Was thinking Cyclone slayer for sure... but people be saying they got super nerfed b/c they can be stunned now... I've always got stunned, so no nerf there.
Most uniques lose some 25-30% phs inc dmg, but the crit % on base is higher, so not a big deal.

I'm thinking as its mostly been my league starter for 5+ years, mind as well keep doing it lol.
otherwise Frost blades assasin .

( aurabot is not an option at this point until i get a better pc to handle full party's ) Gotta be able to keep up.
