Notes

#This league start progression PoB was done in a "gauntlet" style league. Which is a lot more challenging than normally. At least 2x. Up to 10x more difficulty.
So in a normal league it's very likely you can complete content with earlier loadouts than what is listed.


#Youtube Video / videos
https://youtu.be/d8UDSwWNqmI
 - in this video I cover my brainstorm of the build. It also contains the latest updated content and discussion on the build. See the video description / pinned comment.


#Gameplay Vods:
I update on my youtube first so this might not have the latest vods listed here.
 - Acts 1 - 6
https://youtu.be/cyAkR0PCXCI
 - Acts 7 - 10 + white and yellow maps
https://youtu.be/7EszE2A-RGw
 - Yellow / early red maps
https://youtu.be/aq1A8xztZ_k
 - Early red maps

#Reddit Post
 - might be some discussion on here if you are looking for more of that


#Loadouts:

 - Act 1
 - Act 2
 - Act 3... etc
 - White Maps
 - Yellow Maps
 - Red Maps (2 - 4 Watchstones)
 - Lifestack Rathpith initial swap (4 watchstones complete) (before nerfed enrage too :smirk:)
 - stay tuned for more... I want to clear the JOOCED uber bosses with this build


#Notable Stuff
 - Leveling with storm call was really smooth, surprisingly. Once you get vaal carress gauntlets (I recommend normal ones for campaign for the onslaught uptime). 
But once you acquire those it's one tapping rares. Stormc call is a viable league start even without architect of chaos ascendency imo.

 - Vaal storm call is pretty playable after depose order + priest of yaomac(bloodline) + shepards soul. But normal storm call fills the gap very well.

 - Build starts really popping off when you get 2 vaal souls per second / 100 reduced soul gain prevention / 60% less souls per use / shepards
 fine before this but can really spam vaal storm call at this point.

 - I really enjoy Vaal Arc for trash clear. You need a triumvirate ring with 150% more damage to do this. Another really good mod is 30% reduced soul gain prevention. 


#Future plans
 - I plan to try out some sort of explode setup with foulborn bereks for clear as well eventually.
 - corrupted soul / pious path / adorned setup / triumvirates / vaal bv burst dps
 - Check out the following PoB for my initial brainstorm and an outline for future upgrades. Though most importantly look at my youtube video for the latest updates to the build.
