Best POE 3.22 Builds for Start & Endgame - Top 5 Strongest Builds in Path of Exile Trials of Ancestors

1. DD Elementalist Build by DS Lily

Coming in at the number one spot, we have Elementalist that need dead. It just gets so much damage, it just carries it hard, that's the main defining thing you get so much damage for free. We'd give the rating of the boss damage a 9 out of 10, you just really get so much for free on gear, so kind of hard to beat. Clear speed 7 out of 10 is decent, it's nothing crazy, it is pretty fast. You clear pretty fast, but it is dependent on if you're comfortable with the two bum player style too. If you can play that smoothly, then might get knocked down a couple tiers. Defense 5 out of 10 does kind of lack on defense. And you get Bastion of elements while mapping. The reason you want to play this build is you're really valued getting the bosses down quick or you like a really smooth build throughout the whole way it just feels good. Because you just get so much damage for no reason well not for no reason, it's baked into the skill gem and with the specters. So that's why you'd want to play this.

2. Boneshatter Slayer Build by Carn

The boss damage is only like a 3 out of 10, it's really not very good, you don't have good damage up time, your melee, you gotta keep those trauma stacks up, it is rough, so you're not really looking at a main boss. You can do definitely do all bosses, but you're going to have to be pretty good to be able to do them smoothly. Clear speed is a 10 out of 10 in terms of League starters, we don't think anything beats this for clear speed, it zooms. Defense is 8 out of 10, if you make sure you hit stuff, if you don't hit stuff and you get big stuff, big projectiles, you will die. you really need to make sure your leech is up and your fortifies up, that's the bulk of your defense. so this comes in at a total of 21 out of 30. But this build focuses much more on clear speed and it is quite a bit tankier.

3. Righteous Fire Inquisitor Build by Pohx

This is another build if you kind of value this, the smooth start can't really go wrong with this. That being said the boss damage is kind of lackluster, it has pretty decent up time, but it's really not crazy and you'll need some pretty good gear to make it scale pass like two million or so. Clear speeds 7 out of 10, you'll charge through occasionally, use your fertile war cry or fertile cry, pop the enemies, throw your fire trap. Early is kind of rough when you first get on the maps, so it does take a little bit for that scale and it's a little bit slower than that when you first get into maps, but the main upside of this build is that it's really tanky for early game. You just get a ton of regen and the energy shield is also really good, but you make up for that a little bit with the boss damage being low and kind of the rough start to maps. So the total score comes at a 20 out of 30.

4. Boneshatter Juggernaut Build by Goratha

This build is if you like just never want to die, you don't want to die you play this. Boss damage is only like a 2 out of 10, it's pretty rough on the damage especially if you're not used to like HC gdps builds, this is pretty rough on the damage side, same thing as Boneshatter Slayer, Slayer gets a little bit more damage. The upside of jug Boneshatter phase tank a little more, you can face tank on Slayer too if you keep your leech up. Clear speed 7 out of 10, it's not quite as fast as Slayer, but it's still pretty good, so sleep around, slap packs, defense 10 out of 10. That's the main point of this build, you don't want to die.
