Passive Skill Tree

The passive skill tree focuses on increasing lightning damage, elemental damage, critical strike chance and multiplier, life, and mana. We'll also be utilizing two large cluster jewels with Practiced Caster, Sap Psyche, and Scintillating Idea notables. These notables will provide additional mana, lightning damage, and critical strike chance, further increasing our overall damage output.

Ascendancy:

We'll be using the Hierophant ascendancy for its powerful bonuses to mana and spell damage. This will allow us to stack even more mana and increase our damage output significantly.

Bandits:

We'll be helping Alira for the extra critical strike multiplier, mana regeneration, and resistances. This will provide us with a significant boost in damage and survivability.

Pantheon:

We'll be utilizing the Soul of the Brine King and Soul of Garukhan to gain freeze and shock immunity. This will ensure that we remain durable in all situations.

Gems:

Our main 6-link consists of Arc, Awakened Lightning Penetration, Increased Critical Strike Support, Power Charge On Critical, Spell Echo, and Awakened Added Lightning Damage. This setup will provide us with significant damage output and allow us to quickly clear through most content.

Our main damage support setup consists of Wrath, Eternal Blessing Support, Divergent Righteous Fire, and Anomalous Conductivity. These gems will provide us with additional lightning damage, critical strike chance, and increased mana regeneration, allowing us to sustain our mana pool.

Finally, for our movement and utility setup, we have Lightning Warp, Faster Casting, Less Duration, and Swift Affliction. This will provide us with additional mobility and utility during combat.

Gear:

We'll be using a Crown of the Inward Eye, rare gloves with life and mana, an Atziri's Foible amulet, a rare belt with life, mana, and increased mana recovery rate, and two rare rings with life and mana. For our boots, we'll be aiming for movement speed, life, mana, and resistances, and the Lab enchant which increases our mana regeneration by 35%.

Jewels:

We'll be using a Healthy Mind unique jewel to convert our life nodes to mana, a Militant Faith unique jewel to convert our Mind Over Matter keystone to Inner Conviction, and a Sublime Vision prismatic jewel to sap enemies with our lightning damage.

Conclusion:

This Arc Lightning build is perfect for league starters and provides both damage and survivability. With powerful bonuses from the Hierophant ascendancy and unique poe items like Clock of Defiance, Void Battery, and Atziri's Foible, you'll be able to easily clear most content in Path of Exile.
