Act 1 Twister Regex: "[egdl] da.*to a|ck s|nt s|rare|insta" !quiv
Act 1 Twister Build Guide credit to SnooBAE85 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WU_SXgxeY2A
Act 2-3 Twister Build Guide credit to ThatsRealNeato - https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/thatsrealneato/builds/ice-tipped-twisters-amazon-leaguestarter
GuyThatDies also has a really solid Twister build guide, it's just a bit more complicated than I wanted to put in the PoB - https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/twister-huntress-levelling

Act 1 Twister Clear Rotation: 3x Whirling Slash -> Twister
Act 1 Twister Boss Rotation: Parry -> Fangs of Frost -> 3x Whirling Slash -> Twister
Act 2-3 Twister Clear Rotation: Ice-Tipped Arrows -> Barrage -> Twister
Act 2-3 Twister Boss Rotation: 3x Whirling Slash -> Ice-Tipped Arrows -> Barrage -> Twister -> Ferocious Roar -> Pounce
I know that's a lot of buttons, levelling with spears sucks total ass and this is the best option I could find

While you can switch straight from Twister to Prized Pain Thorns, I recommend switching to Crown of the Pale King based Thorns before heading to the Dreadnaught
The earliest you can switch to Crown Thorns is Level 16. You MUST have a Crown of the Pale King before you can switch and at least one T3+ Support gem (preferably two)
T5 Support Gems are often cheaper than T3 Support Gems after the first few hours of the league and they work just as well
For Crown Thorns keep your Rapid Assault and Cull the Weak at level 5 - levelling them up only serves to increase the mana cost and attribute requirements
You can use literally any spear for Crown Thorns in the campaign - I recommend buying one from Renly to keep your attribute requirements low

Thorns Gear Damage Thresholds
Level 15 - 11-23 Physical Thorns Damage
Level 30 - 24-53 Physical Thorns Damage
Level 38 - 40-92 Physical Thorns Damage
Level 50 - 64-145 Physical Thorns Damage
Level 59 - 101-220 Physical Thorns Damage

Choice rewards: THESE MIGHT CHANGE WITH THE CAMPAIGN REWORKS
 - Valley of the Titans	- Personal preference, I take Increased Charm Charges Gained											 - Can be changed
 - Venom Vial				- Stun Threshold or Ailment Threshold. 																	                - Can't be changed
 - Tattoos					  - Res/Res/Res																		                                          	     - Can't be changed
 - Abandoned Prison     - 30% Increased Life Recovery From Flasks 																		   - Can be changed
 - Seven Pillars              - 5% All Res OR 3% Movement Speed OR 5 All Attributes											       	- Can be changed

Barbs and Quill Burst won't proc nearly as reliably without crown, so how worth it they are in the Prized Pain setup is still to be tested

This build is experimental - it's likely that I'll update this PoB several times throughout the league
