This build idea etc belongs to AssKickerTM (reddit+youtube)/ProtectorOfFaith (PoE-Forums)


Pros:
-Safe
-steady
-cheap

Cons:
-slow
-Totems



recommended Items:

Any +3 Staff is good, but for the start of a League or for playing on a Budget, the Realm Ender, the fated version of the Realmshaper is just perfect as it is a cheap +3. This might be useless if the Prophecy Mechanics aren't implemented in the Main Game. In my opinion, the Realmshaper is good for leveling since you can, with a bit of luck, get an easy 4-6L and it has the "+1 to Level of Socketed Fire Gems", which is pretty neat for leveling.

Also we use a Belly of the Beast for the extra Life.


I personally dont have the Essence Worm Unset Ring, so here is the wiki link for it:http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Essence_Worm. It will be used for Hatred, our only Aura. Other Auras can be picked up but dont add that much DPS.

A "+2 to Level of Socketed Minion Gems" Helmet for Zombies and Golem.

The rest of the Gear is for resists, life and DEX, we need tones of DEX for a higher levelled Vaal Haste.

Seething Mana Flask to react to Mind over Matter - Hits.


Socket Setups:

Into the Staff goes:
SRS - Spell Totem Support - Minion Damage Support - Melee Splash Support - Melee Physical Damage Support (- Multistrike Support to swap with Splash in Singletarget-Bossfights or in case of a 6L)

For obvious Reasons you might want to stick with the Order presented there.

The finished Skilltree looks like this:

Hi, how successful is your build in the current leaque? Can I simply go with T16 maps?
