Damn that Martial Artist video got me rethinkin' my plans.
I was just gonna blast through with EDC until I respec into some kinda blood mage or demon mommy later, but now I kinda want to ring bells for a living.
It will ultimately come down to whichever DOESN'T have a popular streamer making a build and gearing template that a ton of people are gonna follow to make the gear expensive. Like if Fubgun, Jungroan, or Connor are playing something, I'm staying far away.

The real irony is Chayula might be the best summoner ascendancy in 0.5 cause there's a unique that'll give the fragment things you pick up to minions and it adds up to like 150-180% more damage to minions so even if everything else is shit it's stupid scaling. Not 100% sure how it's going to go but it'd be pretty funny if it just became the best at an entirely unrelated thing.

Yeah it used to be MOST SPIRIT BESTEST SUMMONER, but they've added so many reservation things and spirit scaling that there really is options. I played a Druid with the hidden passive points summoner and it was amazing because the passives were meaningful. I'd love to see some monk summoners, ironically easier than gemling summoner because easier pathing to top.

Just a class that zips around like a crack head spamming abilities that kills shit off the screen - waiting for the "DROP" sound to circle back.
This season is the first time Ive actually taken the Druid to end game with werewolf frost lunar swipe shit. Using the two buffs and then the rotation and bosses are frozen and down within just a few seconds at most. Honestly, its probably the most fun Ive had playing the game because it still retains some of the original POE 2 theme of impactful combat. Im just sad that I started the season so late because I'd like to push the heights of it to see where it actually tops off at, but I just wont have the time before the new season drops.

In still clueless on what to play. Don't think Twisters is for me at all even if it's a good build. Not playing anything with Fubgun and bows either.
I just wish Skeleton Minions were good so I could just go Witch and spam an army of them. Not sure how viable that is now though.
I don't necessarily need speed clear. Just a defensive build that does good DMG on bosses and clear okay.

Then go monk martial artist and get the ascendancy node that turns your gloves into a body armor

Will keep an eye out what people theory craft on that Ascendancy. Herald of Ice screens pops are nice and they did show that off in their monk trailer.

I played a skele sniper minion druid build last season and it worked just fine.
The unique passives from minion druid are kinda nuts. And snipers plus fire wall worked great, unless it had a nerf for this coming season.

Spectres are generally better than skeletons, but yeah skeletons aren't horribly bad or anything, and it's also quite good for leveling since it instantly deletes bosses with sniper poison cloud detonating with firewall/fusillade so the issue is mostly the normal leveling(but the bug fix on living lightning might help with that? it now scales with gem level like it should). Reaver might also be decently better with melee splash and rage, need to see.
There's still a bunch of things for them to reveal that can affect your choices, specifically the Kalguraan skill gems(they'll likely all be interacting with Runic Ward so might be gimmicky but some might be useful) and the new uniques since there's a fair bit of them and they've only showcased like a third.
