I've done my best to dig up and present what synergies are currently available, and there will likely be more in the patch with many new supports and Uniques being added.

However, post-launch...

All of that is no longer an issue and we'll be able to get new stuff out.

Have a number of (likely off-meta) build ideas to test out for various new spells and shapeshifter stuff once possible though.

Unfortunately, not enough pre-launch info to update anything else updated or get anything brand new out.

- Passive Tree changes limit updates to old builds
- Incomplete Druid Ascendancy info
- incomplete info on Skills and Support Gems

To absolutely nobody's surprise, I'll be start with trying Hollow Palm Technique. It genuinely sounds fun.

Unsure of what class and skills I want to use with it though, not really wanting to use Ice Strike or Tempest Flurry. Much of the testing will be figuring that out first.

Whew, took a bit longer than I expected it to, but all of my Ascendancy Guides for POE2 have been updated for 0.3.0. Link to all of those is below. Give 'em a look!

Tomorrow begins the league and testing new builds, as well as starting to get the existing builds updated.

I'm happy with how it's performing in my current state of gearing, but I definitely need a good GA Sanguivor to break into T4 . Damage is great, but a little inconsistent due to how Apogeic Furor works.

The burst is incredible when everything lines up though, easily phasing bosses in T3.

Diablo 4: Army of the Dead Necromancer Build Guide A minion-centric build for Diablo 4's Necromancer that uses Army of the Dead to boost its minions and output high damage.

The Build Guide from my Army of the Dead Necromancer is live! Spent the better part of the past couple days testing it to make sure everything working well.

Diablo 4 Season 8 Boss Powers Explained Season 8's new Boss Powers allow us to collect certain boss skills and turn them against our foes. This guide covers all you need to know.

Diablo 4 Season 8 launch has been pretty smooth so far, Build I wanted to play came together nicely and progressed very quickly, and the Boss Powers made it quite strong, will have a guide for that soon.

For now, have a guide covering the boss powers.

Hmm, what's this? Seems Diablo 4 Season 8 had an extra surprise for the secret hunters out there.

Wonder how that happened? Here's a guide covering the process!

vulkk.com/2025/04/30/s...

My Path of Exile 2 Content will be slowing down for the time being as Diablo 4 is beginning a fresh season.

So expect quite a few more D4 posts soon!

Path of Exile 2: Essence Drain Infernalist Build Guide This Essence Drain Build uses the Witch’s Infernalist Ascendancy to deal a powerful Chaos DoT and focuses on Energy Shield for defense.

Happy Easter to those still playing POE2!

It's not much of a celebration, but my Essence Drain Infernalist Guide has been updated to account for the 0.2.0 Passive Tree Changes.

This also includes some notes for those that want to adapt it to a Lich as well.

Path of Exile 2: Huntress Leveling Build Guide This Twister Build for Path of Exile 2 uses the Amazon Ascendancy to create multiple Twisters that shred enemies and bosses quickly.

It took a bit of time to get fixed up, but the POB for my Twister Huntress Leveling Build has been added to the guide!

vulkk.com/2025/04/08/p...

Additonally, I got around to updating the Leveling Uniques Guide as well, to include the new options from 0.2.0

Due to a Bug though, I may need to recreate the PoB again to be able to share it as part of the guide.

Thankfully the guide has the Act-by-Act progression of the PoB, just as images.

Bit more delayed than expected, as PoB got updated as well finally. But The Huntress Leveling Build for POE2 is here!
vulkk.com/2025/04/08/p...

Despite the recent bug fix, its still perfectly functional, as I didn't lean heavily into projectile count.

Outside of the random crashing day1, League Start for POE2 has been fun.

Started with Twister to level a Ritualist, and it's been incredibly smooth so far. Would be stronger on Amazon, but still some of the smoothest map clearing I've had in a while.

Written guide for the Amazon version tomorrow.

The Details for Unleash weren't in the patch notes, but were made available through dataminer this morning, so Unleash has its proper info now.

As it turns out, I wasn't wrong about what it'd do.

Now that we have Path of Exile 2 Patch Notes for 0.2.0, nearly every Ascendancy got changes, and by extension, needed to be updated.

These are now all up-to-date based on that patch notes given. Chronomancer will need to be revisited after the patch goes live, due to lack of details on Unleash.

Planning a few things for builds yet, but waiting on patch notes before I go too deep on things, because there's a good chance there will be more things that need updating before I can move on to the brand new stuff.

If you're looking for just the info regarding the new classes only, here's the links to those.

This provides easy access to all of the builds I've put together and all the details on them.

Then there are a couple that are in progress, alongside some more general guides to build up the overall catalog.

Without any major spoilers, let's just say I've been leveled some characters, testing and tweaking to my liking but I'm still yet to cover a couple archetypes I love, DoTs and Minions.

Next is my Fulminating Concoction Pathfinder build, wanted to try and build around a less popular Concoction, and it plays pretty smoothly overall.

vulkk.com/2024/12/30/p...

As for the builds, I've primarily focused on Leveling builds, which include details for taking them deeper into the endgame.

First is the Stat Stacker Archetype, we opted for Monk as a base but works for basically everything. May be changed in the future, unsure atm.
