Path of Exile will release new events in December, which will bring us new fun. In the game we need a good structure and a lot of poe currency. Here we will introduce the 10 best builds for everyone.

10 Best Builds In Path Of Exile
10 Best Builds In Path Of Exile

1. Reave Blade Flurry Champion


Blade Flurry is a channeling melee attack. While channeling, Blade Flurry repeatedly attacks a random enemy in front of the player, also damaging enemies nearby the original target. When released, it will unleash an extra number of attacks equal to the stage reached.


Completely obliterate the map and bosses using Reave Blade Flurry. Chop your enemies into bits with this full screen AoE build and turn them into salsa. Welcome to the strongest melee attack in the game, Blade Flurry.


Pros:

  • Reave clear the whole screen as “melee” ability

  • Blade Flurry strongest damage melee attack

  • Multiple layers of defense (leech, regen, armour, evasion, mobility, debuffs)

Cons:

  • Blade Flurry max damage difficult

  • Gem swaps for optimal setups

2. Storm Brand Inquisitor


Storm Brand is a spell which creates a brand on the ground. While attached, the brand deals lightning damage to the attached target, chaining to nearby enemies.


With Storm Brand Inquisitor, your enemies won’t have a chance when you chain lightning strikes on their faces. This is another personal favorite build of mine and one I’ve reached the furthest with in terms of end game content. Meet your new shocking friend, Storm Brand.


Pros:

  • Best all-around Build - does it all

  • Doesn’t care about Resistances on Enemies

  • Safest Playstyle of all Build (Brands stay on target for several seconds)

Cons:

  • Low Life Regen

3. Cyclone Impale Slayer


Cyclone is a channeling attack skill that rapidly hits all enemies in a circular area around the player. Cyclone gains stages during channeling that increase its base radius. The player can move while channeling Cyclone.


Farm the hardest bosses in the game with this Cyclone Impale Slayer build. Although it’s not the best for clearing waves of enemies, it’s a very easy playstyle with incredible amounts of damage. Huge hit with many Path of Exile players and strong solo build. Our main course of action is Cyclone.


Pros:

  • Huge single target damage

  • Overleech still OP

  • Easy Smooth Cyclone Playstyle

Cons:

  • Melee = dangerous

  • Low cyclone AoE

4. Chaos Damage Over Time Occultist


Chaos damage is one of the five damage types. It is the rarest damage type and the hardest to get resistance against. Chaos damage bypasses energy shield, reducing life or mana directly. Although chaos damage reduction is based on resistance value, it is not considered elemental damage. One can become immune to chaos damage with the Chaos Inoculation keystone passive.


Chaos Damage over Time or DoT Occultist, utilizes three major gems. Essence Drain, Contagion, and Bane. Certainly one of the best solo builds for end-game.


Pros:

  • BEST map clear from AoE Chaining

  • Kills stuff while moving

  • Essence Drain is strong Regen

Cons:

  • Not a braindead playstyle

  • Hard to get good Gear early on (double 6-link)

5. Herald Of Purity Guardian


Herald of Purity is a herald skill gem. When activated, it reserves mana for a buff that grants more physical damage for attacks and spells. It also summons a Sentinel of Purity minion when the player kills an enemy or on hitting a rare or unique enemy while active.


Herald of Purity builds are a huge hit in the Path of Exile community. Not only can you survive almost anything, but your single target skills can completely wreck bosses. This solo build is also for you if you like minions, but not zombies.


Pros:

  • Exceptional Survivability and Single Target

  • Easy but Active Minion Playstyle

  • Can focus on pure defense on most gear

Cons:

  • Minions are dumb

  • Life sustain requires good gear

6. Cobra Lash Poison Assassin


Evade and kite around your enemies while they choke on your poison with Cobra Lash Poison Assassin. This is a personal favorite solo build that is a little mechanically challenging, but very rewarding in the end. Here, we have our main gem, Cobra Lash.


Cobra Lash is an attack skill that fires chaining projectiles that deal chaos damage with a chance to poison. Poison applied by this skill from a critical strike has added damage over time multiplier.


Pros:

  • Strong map clear due to chain

  • Fast and Easy ranged playstyle

  • Huge Damage scaling if left alone

Cons:

  • Situational single target

  • Evasion base can get you one-shot

  • Extremely Cheap due to off-meta

7. Cast On Crit Cyclone-Ice Nova Assassin


Next we have Cast on Critical Strike Cyclone-Ice Nova Assassin. But not as much as the mouthful of pain your enemies will have. Slow, freeze, and wipe through your enemies before they can react! While your main source of damage here is Ice Nova, Cyclone will be used as our ‘trigger’ to proc our Cast on Critical Strike Support Gem.


Pros:

  • Easy and relaxed Cyclone Playstyle

  • Shred enemies while moving

  • Huge Damage and chills on bosses

Cons:

  • Low Cyclone AoE

  • Hard to get good gear early on (Cospri’s)

  • Expensive

8. Vortex Tank Occultist


Vortex is a cold spell that explodes for cold damage in an area around the character and leaves a ground effect that chills and deals heavy cold damage over time. If the player has any active Frostbolt projectiles, Vortex will be cast on those projectiles instead.


Vortex Tank Occultist is a satisfyingly tanky area of effect build meant to face bosses and massive waves of enemies head-on. While your DPS isn’t the strongest, you’ll be tanky enough to wipe your enemies with ease.


Pros:

  • Easy playstyle and debuffs allow safe bossing

  • Satisfying curse explosions

  • Multiple Layers of Defense

  • Lazy playstyle to watch Netflix while playing

Cons:

  • Need to get close to place vortex

  • Lacks single target DPS

9. Icicle Mine Deadeye


For those of you experienced with path of exile already, you may be questioning as to why we’re building Deadeye rather than Saboteur while using mines. Well if you didn’t know already, the goal of Path of Exile is to reach the end game Deadeye is the way to go!


Whether you’re hardcore mapping or delving the mines to incredible depths, Deadeye Icicle Mines allows for much more power in the late game. This breaks the mining meta that early game Saboteur grants you.


Pros:

  • Strong Map clear with high-chain potential

  • Fast ranged miner playstyle

  • Huge burst damage possible

Cons:

  • Standing still to place mines can be dangerous

  • Evasion based playstyle can be difficult

10. Multi-Conversion Divine Ire Trickster


For players who love huge beams of light, explosions, and one-shotting bosses, The Multi-Conversion Divine Ire Trickster is for you!


Your main damage output with this build is the use of Divine Ire. Divine Ire is a spell gem that requires channelling so you must be still to use it. In its default stage, its damage is Physical-based along with 50% of its base damage converted to lightning.


Pros:

  • Strong Map Clear using multiple on death explosions

  • Potential to one-shot every boss in the the game

Cons:

  • Inconsistent Damage Spikes

  • Standing still while channelling can kill you
