Well champion defence was nerfed so it’s gonna be hard for me to play shield throw with them.
Now the question is rather I try rage beserker shield throw or play something that won’t suck,

What? No dude. You don't plan your character thru leveling unless you play HC. Go full glass canon.
Stats becomes irrelevant once you hit like 85 level, they are mostly undesirable on gear unless you play like INT/STR stacker builds.
Also you get access to crafting bench that gives you option to craft resists on gear.
Now you will also have harvest crafting so I suppose you could say that resists became irrelevant.
Yes, going that way aswell. Getting all chaos/poison nodes aswell as some hp ones around. Just unlocked cwc and vile toxins support so the basic setup is done - i'll may hunt for a nice 5link later on to drag it till endgame. Need to check which supports are the best ones to use. Both Poison and Swift affliction look good.
EDIT: patch notes out when?

Non ti fidar di me se il cuor ti manca.
i need to figure out something to play other than my typical scourge arrow ignite bow elementalist. I've mained it for 5 seasons now because it's the only functional build that i also find fun enough to actually play instead of just getting bored around t5 or sooner. Trying new builds feels really taxing and if i go through the full leveling process of 2 characters and don't love either of them then i'm usually just done playing for the season.
any suggestions?
although i'll have to check out that elementalist rework to see how it impacted the build

Eh, i'm in the same boat everytime a new league comes. I usually roll with something based on the new/changed skills to try them, but i end always playing the same stuff over and over.
I actually never played a bow build. Nor fire ones, so i could try something like that. IIRC they reworked Deadeye right?

The problem with D3 is that it simply didn't have a good enough base to build over it through seasons. When you cannot change much baseline, you can only get so far. Meanwhile PoE has a huge platform to start from and expand. In the end, all PoE seasons are:
- rework of passives/skills and eventual new ones
- new currency
- alternate way of crafting stuff
- new endgame challenges that can live together with all the previous ones.
Yes, sometimes they needed to clean things up because you cannot simply add layers over layers (and still i think they're just going too deep with that), but again that's possible because they started huge and wide. D3 pidgeonholed itself into sets and the only way to spice things up character wise is to add countless sets, at least 1 for each class every season.

Well my favourite ascendancies got buffed, sometimes feels good to play off-meta.
I heard it's nice with Gladiator bleed explosions and general bleed focus.
Tonight, supposedly.
You could try burning arrow w/ assailum for the channeled skill feel.
Caster ignite with fireball + flamewall I heard was also ok, mostly played on Trickster, but that got nerfed and Ele got buffed so...
Man...I almost just wanna say fuck it and make another cyclone slayer now that they've added in yet another leech stat giving insane leech overkill. My last one had something stupid like 3.8K HPS leech with a legacy starforge and pretty good gear (but still garbage damage, sadly, impale and no crit) and more HPS feels like overkill, but without going crit again or access to anything like a legacy starforge I'm not sure if's even worth it.
Edit: Hrm...now tinkering around with a Scorching Ray/Divine Ire Inquisitor with Smite for my attack skill, or a mana-stacking Hierophant. DAMNIT, gonna need to spend some time playing around with PoB before Friday >.<

Cobra Lash's new +5% damage per remaining chain is a fantastic effect and I'm seriously considering playing it as Assassin.
Other than that, I might play Bane Occultist again. Malediction being unbound from Profane Bloom is a significant buff.
If you are particularly bold, you could use a Shiny Ditto. Do keep in mind though, this will infuriate your opponents due to Ditto's beauty. Please do not use Shiny Ditto. You have been warned.
If blizzard didn't abandon it and made the next xpac they were very clearly initially planning I'd never have touched PoE either.
GGG owes so much to blizzard abandoning the diablo franchise for so long and for nothing else on the ARPG market being competitive. They get away with sooo much shit that no one would put up with if they had a modicum of competition. Yet alone the number of people who never would have touched the game in the first place.
It'll be interesting to see what happens if blizzard doesn't muck up D4.

I disagree, the problem with D3 was that they basically abandoned it and stopped releasing any content for years. It really has nothing to do with what was there, but more the lack of anything new.
..and so he left, with terrible power in shaking hands.
Ya glad is likely the strongest it can be without huge elemental conversion which cost an insane amount.
But for some reason I just can’t get begin bleed builds glad even less so cause I can’t stand the popping sound.
My go to has been champion impale because it has amazing defence and I even managed to clear Sirus with it last league though the damage was god awful like always.
Yes and no. The RoS team was clearly wanting to make the game better and expand it, but management cut it short because they thought it wasnt enough (if i have to believe kotaku, the day ros released). They were all moved to WoW that still makes so much money and was in dire need of people. We got Legion from that.
So, we actually could have gotten much more from d3, unfortunately.

I don't really understand the yes / no part of your post since you basically just agreed with what I said in that they abandoned it.
Also ugh, cause legion was such a horrible expansion for me. Would've much preferred they kept them on D3 and WoW went in a different direction.
