This build reminds me a lot of chaos dot trickster that I used for a couple of leagues to carry my friend group/guild to red maps a couple of league starts before and after soulrend was released. However, this cold dot version feels stronger and is definitely faster to solo level.

I hope to adapt it for endgame for trade softcore (but have not made any pobs/tests yet, will maybe do so in the following days), The build should in the endgame be extremely tanky. Polymath makes you close to immortal while mapping, the big slows also make manual dodging of stronger opponents easy.

Use essence on map device, alva sextant, 2 strongbox sextant (kinda optional), remnant sextant and harbinger sextant.
Basically farming essences combined with fast mapping. Around 80c (avg) "guaranteed" profit per map.
Sell essences/deli orbs only in bulk. If possible sell them for divines. Otherwise make big buyouts (eg. for essences 27/27 chaos or similar)

So.. 36 min Sanctum run (with maps included). Goal is to throw on a mageblood, and get more damage to actually oneshot everything. Maybe the no-hit run is possible then (yeah not with the way I went through those traps lol). Also, around 30mins per full Sanctum should be possible. Let that sink in.
I tried Barrage because #1 Omni Deadeye on poe.ninja is using it. But it felt like worse damage than TS. So I am back on focused ballistas. Definitely way better (but laggy for me, since my PC is not the best).
Also, I hope the video quality is a bit better again. Installed new OBS and had lost the old settings.

So yeah, this character was put together to hopefully farm sanctums faster than the venom gyre dude. It is just as expensive as the str stacker though (spent around 60 div I think), but well if you basically live in sanctum like me you make a bunch of currency. I didn't know until a few minutes ago that those invocations I got are tradeable and worth a bunch. Also Sanctum itself just prints currency.
Have not played bow characters in years and man it feels great. I used to be mainly a bow player back in the day, around the time when MFing with bisco's leash/collar and pariah rings was popular.

~50min runs with trading in between 3-4 div value per run and immeasurable worth of relics. Seems Good.
The build is perfect for fast sanctum runs and speeding through maps. Also works wonders for all regular endgame, have not tried ubers, but should be easy with a bit more investment and already doable with how I set it up at the moment (if you know the fights and maybe use cheese ryslatha and 3-4 life flasks).
Since my goal for the league is getting a no-hit sanctum run I will reroll Omni TS as soon as I get the required pieces for that (probably today or tomorrow) and then keep farming sanctums until I burn out lol.
the atlas tree also looks like some weird robot-friend

I still had my best league start in many leagues with the cold dot trickster. Atlas complete, easily farming t16s. I have been using 1 deli orb per map for like 10 maps now. The orbs are only 3c and add enough I believe. No further updates from me on this build. At least for now.
But I have made my mind up about rerolling TR Pathfinder. I think I'll just be happier with a character that can zoom around permanently. Mostly for the league mechanic.
Right, Abyss is really good for early currency, all bases can be sold for 3c, yesterday as much as 5-7c depending on base. I made most of my currency that way. Also Breach feels really cool when you get to proc 5-10 breaches and just get pure breachstones for "free".

Fire Burst can still be a pretty chill and fast mapper. In my opinion you really want to get at least 30% CDR. Damage is enough, I still have mostly bad gems.
The build is squishy, however. I am thinking of getting 100% and or running 3 golems through forbidden jewels for some extra defense + recovery (would have to drop shroud for either. A few more levels and around 5k hp then should make it a pretty ok allrounder for more than chill mapping.

So, this build is obviously heavily inspired by mathil. I realized the potential as soon as I saw him zooming 2 days ago, so I build myself a shockwave totem guy but tried to make it different from his.
The goal is to just permanently freeze everything. Should be possible with better gear and more levels. Freezing basically doubles our damage with the new Heatshiver. Since I freeze everything in maps mapping is really safe and enjoyable.
Bossing potential is definitely there as well. Probably the build I will do 38/40 challenges with this league.

Yes, the DPS is lacking at the moment, but every level from now on is just more and more DPS. (cluster jewels/normal jewels) The goal of this character was basically to have a good map clearer (atlas grind...) that is very tanky and hopefully should be able to boss well at the higher levels. Won't have insane DPS but the tankiness and damage over time way of dealing damage should be decent for bossing (I hope). And yes, this char is pretty expensive... mageblood + 100~ ex, maybe a bit more.

pob: pastebin.com/Kdxr755e ~5.4m dps (still not sure if point blank is good, kinda hard to test in simulacrums since it's hard replicating same situation, maybe I should test on some uber bosses)
I have done 10 Simulacrums on this character and died exactly once so far, on a wave 30 with 5 or 6 damage mods. Should have dodged the Kosis giga-slam.
This character is pretty cheap to put together, around 30 ex I'd say. Only expensive thing is the claw, which is not that hard to make with recombinators and some luck. Not using omniscience, since I hopped a ton of builds this league and still have not really amassed currency.
Gear is basically damage wherever I could get some (stacking all the small things really adds up) with capped chaos res and spell suppression. Purity of Elements is used for ailment immunity and easier gearing. No item should be more than 1-2ex. Chest was selfslammed chaos harvest until good mods. Blizzard crown essence of envy spam until decent life and open prefix.
Should probably craft better boots (hunter evasion base and reforge crit in harvest until spell suppress + tailwind). The shield was bought for an ex, the entire jewellery was also not more than 1ex per item. Yoke of suffering for bigger shocks is probably a good idea (get more - cost on rings for example, or use a militant faith with reduced mana cost would be easy swaps).
The lethal pride has 2 double damage and 5% of phys taken as fire. You could forgo that entire part of the tree and spec more into the ranger/shadow area probably, maybe adding a 2nd inspired learning.
The build could easily be converted to omniscience for way more damage (pretty much THE meta build right now/at the start of the league)
The character is decent at mapping but shines farming simulacrums. Flagellant flask mod is op, armour/eva stacking on champion and capping spell suppress/chaos res makes for a pretty much unkillable character. If we ever get hit by something that deals a bunch of damage there are still 2 more failsaves, adrenaline instant recovery and a 10k shield from molten shell.
If you want to casually level to 100 I would recommend playing a champ with similar defences (I pretty much copied ben_/darkee/lightee's defences)

Temporal bubble stops our loop as it increases our CDR, so those enemies are annoying but as you can see in the video it is fine if you have enough damage.
If you kill them slower than I did I guess you have to weapon swap manually a couple of times until they are dead.
Note that this is still my pretty heavy invested character from last league so with less gear your mileage may vary, but I have already seen a couple ascendants with CWDT in their name in the new league, so I am sure it is fine also on lower gear levels.
I might try to do some videos like this, checking more or less good farming strategies. I wanted to do Hall of Grandmasters, since the build excels at it. So, was it worth the grind? Probably not, unless you want some really easy mindless grinding where you don't have to pay attention at all.
Have been a bit sick and busy with real life stuff. Next video will be about new build for sure.

I did some more optimization, got rid of purity of elements for hatred (NO, you don't need anomalous hatred, I just got it in hope of freezing some more stuff; 10% more freeze duration - need 10% less damage to freeze enemy).
The boots actually went to 9% CDR really easy (I used exceptional ember every time before conflict orb and CDR went up every time :D).
Throatseeker and the int% nodes are probably an upgrade for most of you as well if you already made the change away from the ranger section of the tree (don't forget to leave 1 point at the ranger start or you will lose 20% flask charges gained from replica pure talent).
Finally I destroy Sirus once more, as well as Maven.
Not really much else to say, this is probably my last update on the build (at least for this league).
Next build will probably be some kind of unkillable inquisitor spellcaster or an unkillable bow/wand character.

Basically the spells get triggered in a specific order, and we want to put Forbidden Rite and Summon Skeletons earlier in the order than our main spells.
This order works from socket to socket in every piece, so first every first socketed spell in every item will get triggered (item order: Main hand ⇒ Amulet ⇒ Helm ⇒ Off hand ⇒ Body armour ⇒ Gloves ⇒ Boots), then the 2nd socket spell, etc.
Should we run low on mana our loop-preserving spells should be placed in the first sockets and our main damaging skills in the later sockets.
Big Thanks to poe user FidMe for the idea of dropping the dying sun and that neat portal trick.
Also, this build is exceptional at clearing HoGM, so if you ever wanted to slay some grandmasters, have fun :D

Yes, I "cheated", I put 31% increased spell damage on my helmet, ingame it has the line 31% increased spell damage while a unique is nearby. But PoB does not recognize this line yet, even when the opponent is set to Sirus. As the damage on Uniques is the only one that matters, I think it is fair to change that.

If you prefer a written version:
The main concept behind wardloop builds is that we use Summon Skeletons, have their duration run out at a set time and take damage from that by utilizing the Ring "Heartbound Loop". We couple this with a Forbidden Rite linked to a low level CWDT Support. Forbidden Rite then deals even more damage to our character. The FR damage combined with the damage we take from the Heartbound Loop enables us to proc level 21 CWDT Supports so we can cast the most powerful spells we want four to five times per second.
Since Summon Skeletons have a base duration of 20 seconds we have to reduce that by a lot. We use three to Dust jewels and Anomalous Minion Speed coupled with a Less Duration Support to achieve the exact duration for our skeletons that we want. If we have 0% Cooldown Recovery Rate we need to reduce the Skeleton Duration to 232-264ms. Starting at 9 CDR we need to hit 199-231ms. And at 27 CDR we need to hit 166-198ms. You can also go for the next breakpoint, which would be 52 CDR, but that is very hard to achieve and in most cases impractical, since there are opportunity costs attached.
Starting from level 11 Summon Skeletons spawns 3 skeletons. From level 21 onward it spawns 4 skeletons. A level 21 Cast When Damage Taken Support requires 3580 damage taken to proc. A level 21 DIVERGENT Cast When Damage Taken Support requires 2864 damage taken to proc.
Example Calculations:
2 Heartbound + LVL 11 Skeletons
2 x 3 x 420 = 2520 3580 - 2520 = 1060 Forbidden Rite deals 40% of Maximum Life as Chaos Damage Since FR deals Chaos Damage, it scales with Chaos Resistance. At -60% Chaos Resistance it then deals 64% of Maximum Life as Chaos Damage.
So to get FR to deal at least 1060 Damage your Character needs to have at least: 1060/0.64 = 1657 Life.
Meaning if you are using 2 Heartbound Loops and a level 11 Summon Skeleton Gem you need to have -60% Chaos Resistance and at least 1657 Life to proc level 21 CWDT setups. Your Links for this example would look something like this: LVL 16 CWDT - LVL 18 FR - Curse - Anything LVL 5 CWDT - LVL 11 Anomalous Summon Skeletons - LVL 19/20q Less Duration - LVL x/20q Anomalous Minion Speed LVL 21 CWDT - ANY SPELL YOU WANT
2 x 4 x 420 = 3360 This is more than the 2864 required for a LVL 21 Divergent Cast When Damage Taken Support
Your Links for this example would look something like this: LVL 21 DIV. CWDT - LVL 21 Anomalous Summon Skeletons - LVL 19/20q Less Duration - LVL x/20q Anomalous Minion Speed LVL 21 (20/19) DIV. CWDT - ANY SPELL
To not take any of this damage we are utilizing the Unique Flask Olroth's Resolve. The Flask makes it so ward does not disappear once we take damage. This means we reduce any incoming hit by the amount of ward we have. We then stack ward high enough to mitigate all our self-damage.
To not die, we have to have 100% Uptime on this Flask. This is achieved through various means, namely a Timeless Jewel wtih the Balbala mod, which gives us The Traitor Keystone, Flasks gain x charges every x seconds and a big amount of Increased Flask Charges Gained as well as Increased Flask Effect Duration.

As you can see if you have enough damage pretty much everything is a joke.
My next project will either be a tanky Wardloop character (as this one here sometimes dies T_T) or something else... not quite sure yet.

Ahem, sorry, if I had known earlier how strong it is I would have recommended it earlier.
After my last video I kind of saw how strong it would be and then someone linked me a CWDT guy with a quite different build and crazy dps. Here the pob in question: pastebin.com/6m8QUyJx (83m focused, 50m without, his flasks aren't up 100% tho. better burst, less sustained damage)

This is the first build I ever cleared simulacrum 30 with, so I am unexperienced in dodging the boss attacks. I think with practice I can get the runs deathless.
Some upgrades were made (lvl 21 anomalous skeletons; lucky vaal). With that I can drop one heartbound ring for a onslaught on hit ring (which I selffound and crafted), which allows me to swap out an entire flask for a bottled faith (that I dropped in the bossing showcase I made yesterday lol; around 20% more damage).
Literally everything except the bosses is permanently frozen. 4 or 5 reward levels on every level. And I still have a bunch of upgrades to get: CDR belt + boot mod (7% from new currency + 20% on belt) makes the build go from 4 to 5 casts per second, awakened GMP (+1 proj), ice spear enchant come to mind. also more levels)
The build is just amazing. Fast mapper (160MS + tailwind now), and apparently can take on the uber endgame and all bosses.

Taking on the regular endgame. Stupid deaths included.
so maybe the guy doubting my char earlier sees that you can do some hard content with the char, even though it has: "No eva, armor, chaos rez and spell suppress, block...with 2.4 k life and 1k8 mana :3. Freeze only survivability with flask ? xD" I guess I die in the vid so maybe he has a point. Judge for yourselves :D
the defenses are godlike for regular mapping and ok for bosses since the damage is ramping up more and more. also you can see me tanking quite some stuff (pretty much everything from maven, shaper balls, sirus stuff, etc... and a drox slam oneshot :D)

So this is my new build. I call it Fakeblood because I have 4 permanent flasks (even unique ones muhahah). Probably the best build I ever made and there is still so much room for improvement.
Defenses are: offscreen freezing/killing pretty much everything, freezing most bosses already, 150%ms, perma 2.1k ward, atm 2.4k hp and 1.8k mana with MoM that both regenerate insanely quick because of damage recoup
for offense: 6m and 7,2m with Vaal RF for bursting bosses
At the moment this build is speed clearing maps insanely well, haven't tried bossing on this character yet but should be really good.
I hope I can push this build far enough to clear everything in the game (meaning uber legion/blight, simu 20+)
