Endless Delve event is around the corner in Path of Exile 3.19 league, and you have no idea what builds are good for Endless delving? Don't worry, here we got you covered. Here we want to share with you our top picks for Endless Delve builds that should enable you to have a very smooth and fast delving experience.
Path of Exile Endless Delve Build Tips (How To Choose the Build for Endless Delve)
Before we going to take a look at the builds, let's break down what are the important factors for the builds for Endless Delve:
They should have no real gear requirements and no unique requirements except the starting uniques because we are in an environment that is SSF so no trading. We also don't have access to the crafting bench, we don't have access to the atlas so for crafting, we have basic crafting and limited essences. Outside of that is not really crafting, so we need to make do with what we find and what we can craft in a very simple deterministic way.
On top of that, we need really good survivability for the build with just having access to mostly the atlas tree and then a tiny bit on the gear
We need a good clear, and a decent single target so if we do encounter a Delphos we're able to kill the death boss and get unique from the death boss.
Top 10 Best POE Endless Delve Builds (2022)
With the above factors out of the way, there aren't that many builds that are going to Endless Delve. But we've sorted out some top picks for you:
Top 1 - Detonate Dead Elementalist
The first one of the builds that is really good is Detonate Dead Elementalist - the winning build of the last Endless Delve event. The reason Detonate Dead Elementalist was that good is the starting unique Ashes of the Sun. We are guaranteed to get access to this unique by just making a build that gets it as a starting unique - put it in the stash make a limited list and get access to it. And the reason is unique is that good is this specific line - 500% increased ignite duration on enemies. With these stats, we can utilize it in two different ways: utilize it for ignite proliferation allowing the Detonate Dead Elementalist to just kill one enemy and the ignite proliferation of that enemy spread to all other enemies, also use Swift Affliction to take the ignite damage first stretch it with the duration and then takes it no overall increased total ignite damage and squish it in a shorter duration with faster fast ignite dealing faster damage but they're taking down faster and swift reflection taking less time. We have also damage stretching at first to stay longer and then we squish the overall damage in a shorter duration, which makes it really powerful. On top of that, it's also scaling damage because detonate deals with percentage damage based on the corpses. Overall this build has good survivability, it's just not going to have the best viability once you add deaths 1000 or higher, however, the goal is to get to 600 fast, this build will be the best one to go as deep as possible.
Pros & Cons
+ Avg. Armour
+ High Block
+ Divine Shield
+ Golems
+ High Life
+ Absurd Damage
+ Scaling Damage
+ Ignite Prolife
- You don’t use this build until after act 10
- Pretty heavy on buttons to press (2 Button Build + Warcries)

Top 2 - Boneshatter Slayer
Boneshatter Slayer has very high armor, good evasion, absorb life leech and over lead 45, and can have access to maximum resistance on the tree. It has a fairly good clear with using access recall has a high single Target a utilizing impale - utilizing leap's lab meaning that the movement from one note to the other one is going to be super fast, jumps to the next node and clears the enemies on the node then continues to jump further. It does level with Spectral Helix and can later transition into Boneshatter once you're at your first ascendancy and has to impact ascendancy. The Boneshatter Slayer is really good for going to 600 and further again, it's going to be harder to go down further compared to detonate that but it should be faster to 600, or so it should have an easier type getting to a deeper level and then going to fall off once detonate that starts to get really good or each other's going to start falling off. But overall a really good and solid pick for Endless Delve 2022.
Pros & Cons
+ High Armour & Good Evasion
+ Ok Clear
+ High Single Target
+ Impale
+ Very High Life Leech
+ Fortify
+4 Max Res

Top 3 - EDC & Soulrend Trickster
Soulrend is very powerful as long as we can just kill instant enemies with it, they're not going to reach us and we have a good amount of clear because we just fire them in front of us, it's really powerful. And once Soulrend doesn't one-shot enemies anymore, we can swap to Essence Drain Contagion and become almost unkillable, it has a very high evasion and good energy which we all should be able to permanently recover, it has 100% spell suppression and absorbed like recovery on top of that. Because of essence drain, if the enemies don't die correctly means they are a ton of enemies affected by Essence Drain, so recovery is going to be something like can be 10-20 or even more care the highest. Because of the contagion part or because of the sewering part, it has very good clear and we can have a decent single target with light allowing us to kill any boss up to death level 600 very easily.
Pros & Cons
+ High Evasion & ES Pool
+ 100% Spell Suppression
+ Absurd Life Recovery
+ Good Clear
+ Decent Single Target
+ 2 Button Playstyle
– Optimizing it for maximum damage can be hard in SSF

Top 4 - Poisonous Concoction Pathfinder
Poisonous Concoction Pathfinder is a really good starting build and it doesn't change in Endless Delve, you can be very fast if you don't want to push to level 600 or does 600 or even further you just want to get a very specific level very quickly. It is very powerful if you just want a specific level very quickly because you can just go to a depth that you can clear comfortable and then just go sideways to get your experience.

Top 8 - Mortal Spark
You can cast nearly hundreds of sparks per second that have high speed, damage and pierce enemies. You will kill enemies you won't even have the chance to see. This build has true damage because it ignores enemies' elemental resistances. It also deals a lot of extra damage because it pierces bosses, so it can hit them more than once.

The explosions can proliferate strong ignites among a huge amount of enemies in seconds. When you achieve enough attack speed to place 20 poses on bosses, the boss damage is amazing.

Top 10 - Righteous Fire Juggernaut
For as long as anybody can remember, being a tank in Path of Exile has been synonymous with the talent of Righteous Fire. There is no difference between this construct from Righteous Fire. Righteous Fire bases its damage on your maximum health, making health investments more tempting than ever. These days, the build deals a lot more damage, but monsters have also received buffs, thus bosses are still not completely eliminated by this build. But because of its incredible tankiness and high rate of regeneration, it can stay atop a boss until it dies. The build also performs well in situations that are Hardcore and Solo Self-Found. It can safely handle all of the game's content thanks to its potentially 10,000 Health, and a ton of Physical and Elemental Damage Reduction (provided by Endurance Charges, Maximum Elemental Resistance, and Juggernaut's Unrelenting), making it a great build for learning Hardcore, boss fights, Solo Self-Found, and other skills.
Pros & Cons
+ Extremely tanky & forgiving
+ Great to learn all content in the game on
+ Viable in every scenario, be it SSF or HC
+ Being the Burning Man has a satisfying feel to it
+ Great recovery
+ Incredibly cheap to get off the ground
– The build will never have excess DPS; it will always just about be enough
– Really enjoys leveling up, so you want to level as high as possible
– Requires Uniques to play it while leveling to avoid respeccing
