Repulsion Poison Auto Bomber

That being said, in 0.5.5 this isn't a good starter build. It heavily relies on specific uniques to function, so this works much better as a second character - or a pivot off of your martial artist or a more standard twister leveling build. It also gets much stronger with Repulsion, but the soonest you can get that in the current league is level 52 on Plunder's Point in act 4.

As a side note, I believe that you're guaranteed to get some Kalguuran skill gems from Plunder's Point, so don't panic if you don't see Repulsion as one of them. I actually got a level 52 Powered by Verisium, which sold for 30 divines and paid for the 7 div Repulsion gem on the market (netting a nice little profit along the way). Make sure to price check what your options are and take the one that sells for the most, then buy Repulsion and keep the change.

This build feels like an off-meta secret that will eventually blow up, so play it while it's still relatively cheap.

and what runes are you putting in the unique belt in the endgame version

I believe he mentions it in one of the videos, but basically you run one Skeletal Sniper and as many Skeletal Warriors as you can fit. The number of wolves automatically goes up as you gain gem levels.

It's a half ass guide... it's not a bad build but the guide is.... just bad.

The Gemling will be rough since you're not getting all of the bonus chaos damage from the flames and getting the ascendency tornadoes to constantly charge up your Plague Bearer.

• Adds 9 to 23 Physical Damage to Attacks (rune)
• 39% increased Magnitude of Damaging Ailments you inflict (rune)

Sorry, not sure the names but they are easy to find.

Greatwolf's Rune of Claws and a Courtesan Mannan's Rune of Cruelty, for anybody reading this later.

it probably felt alot better in the rune league when you had access to repulsion. it felt alot better act three when i had access to herald of blood and knock back support gem of spearfield

This build scales like crazy, but it needs specific uniques to shine so I don't think it's a good league starter. On a second character you can absolutely run it, even without getting Repulsion until level 52. All you need is Splinter of Lorrata, Dark Defiler, Enfolding Dawn, Original Sin and Wake of Destruction to completely destroy the campaign with poison twisters, and you can get all 5 of them for really cheap a week or so into the league. Just look for rings and gloves with added elemental damage, or pick up some cheap ones on trade as you feel your damage starting to fall off. Whirling Assault x3, Twister, Plague Bearer when charged. Original Sin turns the bonus lighting damage from Wake of Destruction into bonus chaos damage/poison magnitude. You can mostly ignore the Spearfield tech until endgame.

Just used this strategy to level my first monk of the league and it was pretty painless, but if it had been my first character I would have leveled as a Martial Artist.
