Introduction



Death's Oath finally being viable since Harbinger league has been my most exciting time in Path of exile history and I'm very excited to put my own work out here for everyone else to see!



This build can get quite expensive as well as complicated for newer players so I could never really recommend this build, But feel free to ask me if anything is unclear.



The goal of this build is to get the most out of Death's Oath while still trying to make a solid build overall.



Reached lvl 100 for my first time in Incursion League with this build! :)

If there's enough interest in this build I'll consider writing a more in-depth guide.

Cause potentially having 8-12k es is already very strong. Or are you referring to the colouring of the item? it's the only way to make the chest valuable which I like.

even with very good gear 9k es seems the maximum to reach at the moment, so a even a little bit es on the chest would be much appreciated in my opinion



sorry to hijack your build thread with this discussion over the chest piece Posted by

Well, I start every league with this build now and so far I've just leveled with whatever until I got Blade Vortex at lvl 12 which I then use pretty much up to lvl 62 when I can use Death's Oath. You can still use Blade Vortex but swap out the regular damage scaling gems for a decay and supports for that instead and it works like a charm until you get Allelopathy.



I've also tried levling with Dark Pact and summon skeletons totem. It's a bit slow but it works.



As far as skilltree goes I'd Take the solid nodes (ES, dmg whatever as long as they are point efficient) along the way to the nodes that have attributes like the 30+ strenght node(s) that you'll need to be able to wear Death's Oath at 62.



If there's anything else let me know.

Tho it's a bit outdated but you get the idea :) Tears of blood, aching heart,

You totally can with the right budget gear, But I don't know if I could ever seriously recommend this build when there are less complicated and cheaper options.
