Here you have some Waystone 15 gameplay showcasing with my starter on a budget of under 1 Divine Orb. This is a well-tested setup that I’ve created and refined over a long period of time. It’s a tanky, all-around build with a 1-button playstyle that works great even with very cheap gear. It also features a simplified gem setup that can be made without any headaches. Like all my league-starters, everything has been carefully tweaked to best suit new players and casuals. Once you finish the campaign and switch to the actual mortar cannon setup, you’ll shred everything, even on a budget, without feeling squishy or weak. (Act 1 and early Act 2 can be tricky for new players playing a Warrior, so I highly suggest watching my step-by-step campaign progression video guide that I made here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5394wtgNAM )

As promised, I made a much more affordable Luminary setup that doesn’t sacrifice too much of its crazy defenses. You can use this setup to comfortably farm harder content like Simulacrums and T17 -Nightmare maps - (Inside T16s, this build can do everything, so there’s no need to worry about that). I also added timestamps to the video for easier navigation. I strongly believe they will nerf this build archetype into the ground in 3.30, so enjoy it while it lasts!
*Part 2 - featuring the multi-Mirror setup - will be published next week for those who have the budget for it.
Enjoy!
