Wondering what everyone is playing, trying to decide on a build :)

Heard Bane is GG, not sure best char/etc for this build.

Any others? Thoughts?

I made triple flame blast totem to get through the grind, trivialized everything, will change builds in a few days to storm brand.

Almost everything seems viable.

According to Poe Ninja about 12-15% (In HC) are using Storm Brand as their main. Can't see the new skills there yet. about 4-5% are using Winter orb and vary from inqui, trickster, occultist, elemental. Most of the winter orb users seem to be life based Elementalists

Could probably have gotten further with storm brand start instead of fb tbh. Fb feels so gutted now when compared to new skills. I do wanna try spark again.

True, I just wanted to try it with the new channeling nodes, did kitava easy so wasn't too bad, I worked every day since release and still hit 72, I'm at work right now lol

Yeah, I definitely feel you on that one. I had friday off, got from 1-81 and have been working every day since then!

It's definitely a lot harder when you own a business to play games than work for someone. I feel like I work more during my hours off than when I'm managing the shop.

you can kinda simulate the old vaal spark by going pathfinder, using bloodstained fossil weapons and the cheaper vaal skill flask from temple.
Permanent vpsark in maps but requires a more active play style since vspark duration is gonna be a lot shorter and you gotta manage flasks a bit

Also sick single target since you can stack 4-6 vaal spells at the same time.

I did a vaal storm call build using the same mechanic and it ended up being very fun. Not a good early league build though, since it requires the fossils and stuff
