Path of Exile 3.23 has some wild and crazy builds, but the most important thing is to pick one that you enjoy playing. Lightning Arrow Dead Eye is a top choice for a fun ranged playstyle, while Explosive Arrow Ballista Elementalist offers incredible damage without much thinking. Bone Shatter Juggernaut or Slayer is the premier melee build that offers great tankiness. And don't forget about the fun wild cards, like the Cleave of Rage and the Blade Blast of Unloading builds. Just pick one that speaks to you and enjoy the game! 🎮
This build is a certified softcore Banger with one of the strongest scaling into endgame. It has a fun range play style with great clear instant leech and decent single Target. Transitioning to tornado shot will be a lot easier in the endgame. Downsides include being quite squishy and some weird mid-game decisions. Properly geared, it shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Pros | Cons |

Fun range play style | Mid-game decision challenges |

The only minion build on the list, this build is comfortable to play and has a power spike at the start. Downsides include being capped by minion speed and it not being the fastest play style.
This build is an incredible all-rounder and has ridiculous early game power. The only downside is that it's a two-button build, requiring you to summon corpses and then explode them.
This build has a high clear Speed and is quite tanky as well. Downsides include difficulty scaling boss damage and not being very tanky.
The build fills the screen with purple explosions and has incredibly high damage on very little gear. Downsides include that it is not very tanky and the play style may not be for everyone.
Now, let's talk about some wild card builds. The first one is the caustic arrow Pathfinder ballista, which has the potential to be great but currently lacks verifying data for its effectiveness. Next, the righteous fire Juggernaut Inquisitor Elementalist has undergone some changes, and while it has potential, it is still being evaluated. Lastly, the splitting Steel champion has been buffed for this league, making it an intriguing option for players.
I hope these insights make your decision a little bit easier or give you even more ideas for your league starter in Path of Exile Affliction. Stay tuned for further updates and happy gaming!
