[3.16] Rage Vortex Build (League Starter and Upgraded) | Berserker | Scourge | Path of Exile 3.16

Hey guys, here is my league starter. I wanted to start with a new skill and rage vortex looked very cool. When we sacrifice rage we create a ragestorm and this ragestorm gains +1 radius per 2 rage sacrificed and 5% more damage per 1 rage sacrificed. Berserker ascendancy + Redblade Banner combo is perfect for sustaining rage.

Build Cost
- Low Budget: 0-10 ex

Redblade Banner: You can equip this item at level 35. Start using rage vortex after you get this.

Rage: I had 75 maximum rage. (Could've been more)
- Crave the Slaughter, +10 rage (Ascendancy)
- Berserking, +10 rage (Skill tree)

- 4% increased maximum Life
- 5% increased Effect of Fortify on you
- You take 10% reduced Extra Damage from Critical Strikes

3.16 CHANGES:
- Sources of Fortify now grant a number of stacks of Fortification based on the percentage of the enemy's ailment threshold dealt by the hit that applied Fortify to you, with a large bonus to fortification stack generation against rare and unique monsters. You have 1% less damage taken from hits for each stack of Fortification, and Fortification lasts 5 seconds by default. Fortification from multiple melee hits or different sources stacks, up to a default cap of 20 stacks. You can only gain Fortification stacks from one hit every 0.2 seconds.

Hey guys, here is another rage vortex build. If you remember rage vortex was my league starter and it went very well. So I decided to make an upgraded version and it's actually stronger than I expected. This is a great boss killer. Clear speed is not great but it's fine for a melee build.
