↖ Step One: Test Your Build
The first and most crucial step in league start testing is to playtest your build. Avoid solely relying on Path of Building (PoB) theorycrafting or copying endgame builds without considering leveling and early mapping capabilities. Play solo self-found to understand how your build performs from the beginning to at least white or yellow maps. This way, you can gauge the build's potential without heavy investment and ensure a smoother leveling experience.
↖ Step Two: Consider the Upcoming League Mechanic
Research and understand the upcoming league mechanic to gauge whether your chosen build is well-suited for it. For instance, if the league involves enclosed areas with unique mechanics, focus on selecting a build that excels at area control rather than pure movement speed. Additionally, consider whether you find the league mechanic engaging and enjoyable, as this can significantly impact your overall experience.
↖ Step Three: Choose Content and Build Synergy
Two key factors should guide your choice: your preferred playstyle and the type of content you enjoy. Pick a build that aligns with both your preferred playstyle and the content you intend to engage with during the league. Ensure your build is well-suited for the content you want to tackle, be it mapping, bossing, or specific league mechanics. This synergy ensures you have an enjoyable experience while playing.
↖ Step Four: Avoid Unknowns
Steer clear of untested or recently reworked abilities, classes, or unique items that lack clear feedback from the community. While there might be exceptions where something proves to be overpowered despite the lack of information, it's generally safer to opt for well-established builds or those with proven track records from previous leagues.
↖ Step Five: Utilize PoE Ninja
PoE Ninja is an invaluable tool to gather information on popular builds and item prices from past leagues. Analyze popular builds from previous league starts to gauge their effectiveness and popularity. Additionally, keep an eye on unique item prices to assess their affordability and how they might impact your build's effectiveness during the early days of the league.
↖ Step Six: Test Your Build Again
After narrowing down your choices, test your selected build again. Ensure you've considered all factors and thoroughly understand your build's strengths and weaknesses. By doing so, you'll be well-prepared for league start, knowing exactly how to level, gear up, and progress efficiently.
↖ Conclusion
By following these steps, you can confidently pick a league starter build that suits your playstyle and goals for the upcoming Path of Exile league. Remember to prioritize enjoyment over optimization, as having fun is the key to a rewarding league experience. Happy hunting, Exiles!
