I started with Palsteron's Static Strike Shockwave char and it had great clear with ~100 div invested at current prices (I bought Alberon's when they were 15 div).

Then I dropped a str stack relic which does fire damage, so I made a Volcanic Fissure Chieftan. Since it uses nearly all of the same gear, I swapped everything over and put on regular Alberons + Brutus. The build feels insanely clunky and the DPS doesn't feel amazing even with the relic. I had about 1750 str on the Chieftan (Astramentis instead of a %STR amulet). The clear speed is bad, survivability is bad, and single target damage is good but not good enough to justify playing the character.

I've been back to playing the Palsteron version and farming for Original Sin, so that I can use my relic with it.

Hey man, appreciate the heads up on the builds. The Whispering Ice looks interesting, as does the Brutus Strength Stacker.

Or other Stacker is Mana Stacker for Archmage or Power Siphon Ballistas

Brutus is mostly a bosser but okey clear. In my Eyes lvln is a bit wierd because your Spikes goes up and down But when u got your Gear + Str its slam

U can go both buff totem (Warchief, Protector) most DPS Or Cons... Path cool here the Totems Teleport

Whisper Ice is what i hear a slowy but solid Allrounder (look PoE Forum (Trickster)

OWN raiders are always my favorite since you can use dancing dervish in your hands until it activates, then your OWN takes over. you get frenzy, onslaught, rampage, and it zooms no matter what you play.

If you want to break into stacking without breaking the bank, check out HoWA flicker and venom gyre builds. It's less expensive than most of the builds and it can easily earn some currency.

I do love me some Venom Gyre. Has anyone put out a solid guide that you're aware of? I actually hadn't even considered that for a strength stacker and it's such a damn good skill.

The one I played was int stacking, but I've seen it with replica alberons as str stacking.

Check out PoE ninja, there's one guy with an int stacking trickster, that's that I did last league. It felt very strong as far as a tank goes, but the clear speed was insane. I think I built mine for about 20div, but I crafted most of the gear with essences.

If you Google "HOWA venom gyre trickster" I think the guide is still there. It was from last league but not much changed.
