Build Description

INTRO:
This build was played for the entirety of Blight League and was able to complete all the services provided here: Service Thread. I started the league with this character and did everything up to Uber Elder with a reasonable budget. So I build of POE 3.8 Shockwave Setup + Cyclone Berserker for league starter, the following is provided by Eznpc.com.

In Path of Exile 3.8, The AoE Nerf to Cyclone doesn't hurt the build much at all since we don't scale super hard into it. They are buffing the range nodes on the tree so that's pretty Pog. Pulverize hurts a bit but now we will do even more damage so it's fine. Since Shockwave was not touched at all, the build is still in a very strong spot. It might even be an even better/easier league start since people will overreact with the other nerfs and gear for the build will be even cheaper.


PROS & CONS:
+ Relatively budget build to start. Uber Elder is relatively cheap.
+ Able to scale to crazy levels with proper investment.
+ Super Flexible Build: good clear with solid bossing. Any Content in the Game. Any map mods.
+ Able to 5 Emblem Carry with full 6-man Party.
+ Smooth Mapping with satifying boombooms from shockwave and speed from cyclone w/ big boi AOE.
+ Strong Boss Killer: Uber Elder, Uber Atziri, Aul, etc. with vaal double strike + impale.
+ Fast and fun Delving.
+ Any map.
+ Any map map mod: Physical Reflect - swap in Hrimsorrow/burn + Physical to Lightning Support. Elemental Reflect - swap in Brutality Support. Both Reflect - Cry.
+ Shockwave is super satisfying burst while cyclone provides smooth movement through packs, they work very well together.
+ Shockwave can bypass proximity shield.
+ Great sustain with multiple sources: regen, leech, high effectiveness blood of karui, warcry with warbringer.
+ Layered defenses with atk block, spell block, fortify, 5 endurance charges, armor, evasion, immortal call.
+ 0 mana cost for skills so you can 100% reserve your mana. also don’t have to worry about no regen.
- Complex character with a lot of mechanics that work together. not having proper links, mechanics active will be a big hindrance.
- Need to swap a lot of gear for different types of content.
- The super pepega version can be quite expensive to min max.
- Very socket intensive .
