Well I decided on Boneshatter, got through Acts over the weekend. Leveling experience was OK, I think any build that depends on a single color is going to have a hard time. Felt like I was very socket/color starved but it was fantastic when I got a upgrade until I needed another.
I still have a mana flask, but found one with enduring which is nice cuz it keeps refilling even if I'm full. So far the only attempt to "fix" it is -mana costs on rings. I'd have to look at the mana leech on the tree or try and get it on jewelry. Oh there's one on the way to precise technique and thick skin. Might be worth it for the QoL.Only went through first Ascension this weekend. Haven't touched league mechanic yet.
Still using Sunder, but build definitely already feels tanky without even really doing anything special or paying attention to gear. I assume there's a trick to keeping up mana. Right now I'm just popping blues constantly,.

I would definitely start with a better axe and Divergent Boneshatter. Those two changes alone will not only give you better DPS but it will FEEL drastically better to play. I'll guarantee you'll have more fun with the build just from those changes.
Divergent Boneshatter is easy, but buy an uncorrupted one. It's just an "in case" so you don't have to buy it again if you happen to get an Ashes of the Stars.
For the axe, you can either buy one or make one yourself. If you decide to buy one then look on this list and make sure to get one that also has another damage modifier with it like double damage, double damage while focused, culling strike or attack speed when near rare/unique. https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Ancestor/9qLDjLOSK . If you can't find one in your budget with an extra damage mod and don't want to wait for one to show up then you can make your own for 2-4D or just buy a cheap one for 5D or less and re-sell it later.
Finally, for your skills I would dump Melee Damage for Impale and Ruthless for a 20/20 Increased Duration. See how those few changes feel and let me know.
Excellent. I was looing at Divergent Boneshatter, but couldn't pull the trigger on a 2D gem
The axes I have shopped but just gotten lost in what I wanted/needed. Your link will help
I have off work today, so will mess around when I can and report back.
THANKS!
This is a very good axe for the price if you see this message and it's still for sale at 8D. Already 6L, additional damage mod and it has Impale chance to cap you. It's literally over 100% damage increase for you. It's DPS is equivalent to a 15-20D axe.

anyone planning on playing 3.23?
Been busy lately and it sort of snuck up on me. I definitely will fire up a character... probably RF, some sort of minion (though I hate AGs) or good ole totems (will try to find something new) Open to any suggestions! I figure I will start googling/sifting through sometime today/tonight.
Hope to see some of you in game!
always been one on my radar of "to try someday"Guardian SRS is super easy to level and play.
I have always wanted to build a toxic rain character - https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/toxic-rain-dot-trickster-all-content-build-guide
Hah, I mean I get RF builds as enjoyed a few, but I don't mind clicking it the clicks are doing stuff that really help. Otherwise a ice shot dead eye also seems attractive.Have played in the past. Was a decently fun build. If I recall it was too much clicking for my tastes (I'm a lazy player) but overall it was fun and pretty easy to build with notable boosts along the way
@rstrohkirch looking for your guidance once again, please.
This is the build I've been working off of:
