[3.10] Akumas Sunder - THE League Starter Budget - Can do all content.

I know the prismatic eclipse is almost the main core to this build but if you people don't know what to spend your money on you can get a stat stick , a good one really increases your dps by a lot , and it's pretty cheap too i paid 2 ex for mine :D

Yeah with the new Elder/Shaper Items you have some really sexy alternatives.
Depending on what the next league is, I'll try to add a new endgame section for more expensive gear.
Still tried to keep the guide as cheap as possible while still already being able to kill all content, which worked. So everything higher is really just luxury and going easy mode.

Added infos on how we are going to handle the new ascendancy class in 3.2
Still extremely angry about the new gratious violence position. But should still work out.

I've played your build (with some changes) all the Abyss league and cleared all content with Soul Taker include Uber A, Shaper, HoGM. And I think your are not quite right about new way for 3.2
1st budget setup is definitely drop Outmatch and Outlast for bleedsplosion. We gain 10% more damage from Blood in the Eyes (maim), so not lose any damage modifier except frenzy charges generation. It could be easily returned by Blood Rage (as u said), shaper sword (+%block dual, +%extra fire dam, +frenzy on block), shaper amuled (all charges on kill). Mb all of those combined.
I think nothing really changes in mapping with this setup, but Shaper or Uber A (or Uber Elder) will not activate Outmatch and Outlast anyway.
But more interesting I see 2nd setup: drop bleed nodes at all, and take all others. This means you get perma 79\79 block on mapping, 80%+ increase dmg on bosses. This would required Haemophilia and Red Nihgtmare jewel.
P.S. Dropping spell block is not an option at all. Better pick Slayer.

What do u think?

Dropping O&O seems good, and now we may be able to survive without Kaom's Roots, throw in a Riposte (instead of totem) and add a IC set up? PoB has not updated yet and obviously cannot really work on this yet, but is there a way we could move up to master of force? Something like this?

I still would not go out without Kaom's Roots, they're still the best you can get.

I already took a look at counter skills and even if you would trade Kaom's Roots for anything else to make room for an extra gemsetup for the counter attacks, it is just not worth it. With a good Gem Setup, with my example char on page 1 you get something like 56k DPS >IF< the counter would trigger permanently right off its cooldown, that is including the double damage bonus. And kicking out Ancestral Warchief that buffs your DPS and makes its own 150k+ DPS for that? No. Just no.

Also going to the nodes you asked for is totally useless. You waste so many points for so little bonus. Won't help you any.

so we drop O&O? for what? Blood in the eyes?

and what do you think about dropping Jack,The Axe for Soul Taker?

As written in the info about 3.2
Gratious Violence get's switched with Blood in the Eyes, so we must use 4 acendancy skillpoints to use Gratious Violence + Spellblock. We don't have points or Outmatch & Outlast.

I put in Jack, the Axe as this guide is still for Budget and Soul Taker costs mostly 25-50 Chaos at league starts and Jack mostly only 5-15 chaos. If you got the money, Soul Taker is better because more DPS.

When we know more about 3.2 tonight I'll try to add some ideas for more expensive gear. Due to the new DPS calculations for magic, rare and uniques we might have to be forced to use a shaper/elder conversion weapon as offhand for more damage and with that more leech to counter the new damage spikes.

i don't like Outmatch and Outlast for do Uber Izaro and other bosses, cause you have no chance to use it.

PS: i understood now... you can't take outmatch and outlast cause eyes and violence got swapped.
So we go for Gratious Violence and Versatile Combatant of the new ascendancy tree

Just updated some small info on the first page.

Except the Ascendancy we are not affected by the patch.
We will take Blood Rage into the free socket of our Prismatic Eclipse and generate Frenzy-Charges this way. We also may have a new free slot since we get the maim effect from the ascendancy. Also we might have another free slot from "Chance to Bleed" since we already get a high chance to bleed from the new ascendancy node we take. So there is some chance we will be able to deal some more damage through other gems.

Will try to make that changes by tomorrow.
