Monk and Ice Strike sounded like one of the most beloved Class and Skill on POE 2 launch so I had to give it a try. Even if it’s not my game style, I understand the appeal, here is my experience.
RESULTS
Lightning Arrow Lightning Rod CI
I levelled a Deadeye with crossbows until lvl 89, then I wanted to try some bow skills. Here is my experience with Ice Shot and Cast on Freeze for mapping and the combo Lightning Rod, Orb of Storms and Cast On Shock Ball Lightning combo.

Spark Archmage CI
As the patch 0.1.1 didn’t nerf Spark, Archmage or Energy Shield, I had to try the most meta build. Anddddd yes, it’s pretty good.
Skeletal Sniper Minions Detonate Dead
I didn’t level this build, I simply switch a few gems from my levelled up Skeletal Arsonists Raging Spirits Minions Detonate Dead Infernalist so I could try different minions which would offer, hopefully, less visual clutter.
Storm Mage Minions Detonate Dead

Skeletal Arsonist Raging Spirits Minions Detonate Dead
I have never been a fan of minion build in POE 1, mostly because of the micromanagement of Spectres which was almost mandatory. As I like to play brands and totems, I should like minions so I wanted to give it a try in POE 2. So I chose this most meta league starter build.
Corrupting Cry Earthshatter Totems
To be honest, I wasn’t excited with shouting a warcry and use totems again but my already levelled up Warbringer shared so much gear, tree and gems with this build that I had to give it a try.
Explosive Shot Shockburst Rounds
My second POE 2 build and I was excited to try the crossbows and the WASD gameplay. I followed this build from Palsteron and it was a blast!
Shockwave Totems Earthquake
After so many years of waiting, Path Of Exile 2 is here with its Early Access. It was supposed to be hard, with a lot of boss fights, and a slow game play so I wanted to start with a big beefy boy with some totems. This is my experience…
Lacerate of Haemorrhage / Vaal Earthquake Bleed
I did not play this character enough for you to trust this scoring and feedback. I levelled the character to lvl 88 with Eviscerate. I wanted to try the new Lacerate and I ended up respecing after 3 levels. Not a bad build, I just didn’t like the skill.
Eviscerate Retaliation Bleed
After 2 Archmage builds, I wanted to try the revisited Gladiator, lucky block, and the new Retaliation skills so I followed Goratha Eviscerate build. I was following a few of his videos but he has now a full build guide.
Arc Archmage
My 3.25 league starter. Archmage was buffed in 3.24 and not nerfed in 3.25. I used to despise archmage because of the high cost of spells and when I ended up in a pool of degen, I would loose my mana and wouldn’t be able to escape. Now, you don’t need to raise your mana cost to deal damage so I wanted to give it a new try.
