Loving a lot of the improvements this league, the new bearers look awesome.

Also some of the new maps are brilliant, I like Leylines a lot. The density is amazing!

Was planning on doing cyclone Slayer/Raider, at about level 15 I had enough chaos to buy a Poet's Pen, started wandering since then. Hit Maps last night, but my life is still slightly low (2.8k). Only level 73 or 74.

Barrage is around 34k damage, KB is about 18k damage. Using that new Lightning based armor, which I bough for 1c and 5l'ed for less than 10 fuses.

T1 maps is giving me 120m xp/h

I had a slow and steady start. I'm making a simple, safe Cleave Juggernaught. I just want to be able to farm a bit of Uberlab, and make a bit of currency in mid-tier maps. I'll upgrade to something interesting at a later point.

I always start loads of characters but I will stick to this one until at least level 90 by which time I should hopefully have some currency to reroll.

Just hit the Atlas, and am very much enjoying Abyss.

Ya I can see a LOT of abyss in my future, just really need my connection to remain stable please please please. Why oh why did I doubt the power of my favourite class (raider)... And to think some say it is easier to level with spells, fark, I hadn't struggled so much in ages. While a 4L and 3L (single target) attack based build is melting through everything

And regarding Abyss - have no issue with the Manta's, but there is this other enemy that they spawn which does a cyclone...it is the most annoying thing ever.

Currently copy pasting a build from Mathil :p
Frost blades for AOE, molten strike for single target. Frenzy charges are just too dam good, especially going cold and adding on icebite (it's better than added cold if you have 7 or more frenzies).

Honestly this build can probably go up to T8 or 9 with weapons that have zero damage on them (just need high base crit). But items in other slots will probably be pricey, I accept that much

Another thing... Am I the only one who zergs down Innocence in A5? No deaths on Kitava, but Innocence wrecks me like some paper doll in a fireworks factory that is being napalmed

Hi Gents/Ladies

Will be coming back for the league.
Managed to re-install the game last night.

What do you guys recommend as a good easy casual build for this run?
I'm looking for a ranger, bow and arrow sort of class this time round.

Thanks in advance.

I'm afraid I don't know much about bow-builds but I believe there's a general impression they are hard to level with.

Generally, the consensus is that levelling builds are pretty much the same as for the previous league, as there haven't been major meta changes and there are many guides out by now.

Just stack as much "adds x-x damage" as you can, doesn't matter too much if it is elemental or physical (you can adjust your tree/skills to suit). There are also a lot of bows in the guild stash (I found like a million of the dam things), so you really shouldn't have any issues until about level 35-40 (if I correctly remember whats in the stash)

Last league I also struggled a lot with that fight. But then my RF char didnt really struggle. High fire res helps a lot. There is a minor boss after that fight that also does a lot of fire damage. As you go out through the wrecked area after the innocence fight.
