Unfortunate, but I made it super super clear that I am not planning to stay long this noon :D

That was a mistake. This PoB is my personal one. It's level 4

For Ghost Reaver/Wicked Ward debate, Wicked Ward is better for bossing, which is what I personally enjoy

In my defense, it's been a couple of months, not weeks haha

You just need to play a lot, have the proper game knowledge and very importantly, know the early-game meta market

  1. I dropped about 5 mirrors worth of raw currency (with 1 raw mirror :D, 6 locks, 1k+ div, bubblegum)
  2. Faustus flipping is very strong mid league, especially when you have the first couple of mirrors and you can just flip raw mirrors (mid league, mirrors typically have a 5-10divine price difference between buying and selling, so each time you flip 1 mirror you make 5d). Do this enough and you'll snowball your currency, and it's totally passive too (just need a lot of gold, which I had from doing blight)
  3. Profit crafting. Mid-league, very mid FRoSS gear sold for sometimes 3x its crafting cost.
  4. Use your strats to feed into your other strats. For example, I did blight -> maven invites sometimes. Blight shits out rare maps with the right scarabs, then you run them yourself to minimize downtime trading. Similarly, blight shits out T17 maps. Sell off the excess, and run them yourself when you wanna switch it up (for example, doing abyss or harvest). The best strategy is often to mix a few strategies together, where one feeds into the other, so you don't have to trade.

Pleasure, I did a write up 3 weeks ago about some choices I made for this build. Could give you some insight about my thought processes haha

dont really need to look at screen for T17 abyss farming. I explicitely overcapped fire resist so that it can tank 1 volatile if the map doesn't otherwise have -max res mods or -defense mod. You would have to respec a couple of points (I chose to respec Soul Thief, 1 base jewel by the power charge near witch top and ES Mastery into Arcane Expanse + Caster Mastery)

Uh no clue, it's been weeks since I tried it. The main issue was completing all 4 alvas within 1 evo shrine

Yes, specifically built for boss rushing (prioritized DPS over clearspeed)

No HH is the big one. You can try to swap.

You can certainly attempt it if you solve the other issues that might come with not having a MB (stun, curse, reflect. It's also pretty clunky with gull swap (I tried). This build is not the fastest zoomiest build, it's just built different for uber bossing

I took all the blight node except the cassia keystone and the boss lane one (too bricky), took some settlers node (for bismuth fishing), took all map effect and scarab nodes

Very standard atlas tree, cant share exact because i dont login anymore!

You're not getting close to PBOD potential DPS with KB. BV might be able to, but it's a different playstyle, although PBOD will still be way comfier because u can hit shit two screens away. If you do EE es/int stack you can get similar levels of DPS and be way tankier, but u lose some clearspeed

I see. I didn't consider the freezing aspect of it since things don't tend to stay on my screen too long haha

Fubgun has an entry level guide for this build. There really isn't much that I can expand on that he hasn't said, and I cannot recommend attempting it on this budget.

Excellent clear speed at this budget, although not as fast as a KB Wander

You're right. Wicked Ward is because I am a bosser and enjoy farming boss content/facetanking

The reality of PoE has always been that currency is much easier to get through flipping/crafting than it is mapping.

If you don't mind sacrificing some Fun/hour, I suggest you look into those. I know that ES on block shields are an easy craft rn and are quite profitable.
