Blade Vortex POE League Starter Build Guide - Full Trial of the Ancestors Update

Path of Exile's Trial of the Ancestors League has finally had its Patch Notes released, and with relatively few balance changes to speak of, it looks like my BV League-Starter will be blasting as strong as ever. Plus, now that I've had several months to experiment with different responses to the leveling-meta shake-up from last patch, I've fully optimized that section of the guide to get you back to Maps and more ASAP. This Elementalist/Occultist Cold-Conversion BV build guide has evolved and been time tested over several balance shifts, and it remains a rock-solid starter with the potential to scale to the moon on proper investment. Check the “notes“ section of this POB for the full written guide: (Exported Aug 14th 2023 - 5PM EST) UPDATED FOR TREE in POB (not that anything changed) You can also access the full written guide here on the POE forums: Follow me on Twitch: I'll be streaming my full league start next weekend.
