How much of a difference would it make to use axes instead of swords for this build. I have Atziri's disfavor already.

The starforge prices this league really hurt AW champion's viability as a starter which is a shame. It still performed well for me once I actually had the starforge, but I ended up respeccing my champion to a flicker strike slayer in the end because I was burnt out farming with the build to get the starforge.
Still managed to get some top 5 lab leaderboards with it, as well as make some very nice new speed alterations. And on top of that I got to mentor two people this league on how to use my build optimisations to maximum effect which is always a really fun experience.
If there's no update for 3.8 I might send LNB a message and ask if I can help with the tree changes. I have played this build for so many leagues now that it feels like second nature to me lol.

Intriguing.... can you post your pastebin/tree or changes you've made with 3.7?

Like I said, I unfortunately decided to drop 120 regret orbs and respec it to a flicker strike slayer instead of levelling another character, but if you want I can reconstruct the skilltree I used when I have a bit of time off work later :)

That would be awesome and you will earn mucho karma for hooking that up!

...so I guess that's a "no" on the skilltree?
Oh well, appreciate the thought anyway!

Looks like LNB has abandoned this thread. He's posting new Youtube videos, and even updating other threads of his, but no love for this one.
I get it. I mean, he's doing new videos for clicks/$$$, and spending time updating builds in the PoE forums doesn't exactly "pay the bills", so no problem at all.
I guess it'll be up to us to keep the thread updated/active. WHAT SAY YOU? :)
Guys, I am truly sorry that I gave you the impression that I would update the build any further for Legion. The truth is I simply got a bit overwhelmed with what I had to do besides this build.
It is true that in my line of profession putting out new videos is of higher priority, but that doesn't mean I should have given you the impression that I would update the build to reflect the legion changes when I didn't.
I actually did open my PoB a few times to play around with the new supports etc, and while there were a few changes that could potentially benefit the build they were rather minor and I didn't want to risk changing anything that already worked great, to begin with.
The build will be updated for 3.8 and I will do my best to have it reflect the optimal setup for this league. I am planning on having it updated before the league starts tomorrow.
For anyone curious, the build is still completely viable in 3.8 and if you enjoyed playing it in previous leagues you will enjoy it in 3.8 too.
Best

No worries at all! We understand that sometimes priorities take over, and we all appreciate the hard work you've done on this build in the past!
To hear that you'll do an update for 3.8 is amazing - thank you!
Looking forward to reading your input on the new stuff in 3.8, and how that may (or may not) affect the build. Thanks again!
