Hi everyone, I've been playing this build for around 2 weeks now and like to give my thoughts and impressions.

1- I didnt league start with it, I swapped to it once I had crafted my bow and had around 20Ex to buy the initial gear. Even with that the damage and survivability in the beginning felt a bit lacking, for that reason I think league starting with it would be very hard (maybe with some tweaks and smarter gear choices on what invest to get it going)
2- The playstyle was very keen to me. It is VERY active, and you need to know what ur doing to achiv it's full potential. In short, u need to manage ur flasks, manage SA, manage BR, and do the focus/MS rotation.
3- Your flasks ARE KING, i run around with 3 extra flasks in the bag, this is a flask ascendency and a flask build, know how to take advantage of that!!! I asked here before and it helped a lot, here is my setup (At all times: Foreboding Hybrid and Reflexes of Iron Skin, Clear: Cindeswallow, Quicksilver, Dying Sun, Bossing(guardians, sirius, etc, not map bosses): Overflowing, Coralitos, Taste of Hate), but u need to experiment and try what feels good for u.
4- Attributes fixing is a bit pain when u r trying to get the other good mods in the gear, but there is always a easy fix with the +30 on the tree
5- Dont overlook accuracy! Rings and abyss was enough for me to hit 99%, but u need at least 95% to it not feel bad.
6- If u dont like crafting this will be very hard, our gear pieces is not easily available to buy, but i took this opportunity to learn more about it
7- Final, and most important, once u have some key items and points, the build is GREAT!! The clear is very good even without explode chest (not top tier like HH farmers), u can do all map mods (this is often overlooked), it delves pretty well, and bossing is a cake (mainly for people like me that are not very good at dodging stuff, I can facetank 99% of Sirus A9 and Maven attacks (degens will still kill u)), and it is very easy to get levels while mapping, because u DONT DIE.

For those more score focused, here is my roundup (considering the final build, Transcendece Iron Reflexes SA+BR):
Budget - 3/5, not the cheapest to achiv its full potential. Around 30-50Ex, requires a lot of crafting
Mapping - 4/5, good clear with no worries for map mods
Bossing - 5/5
Survivability - 5/5 (not passive tough, u need to press some buttons)
Complexity - 3/5, a lot of things to track and a lot of key items that are necessary to the build to work
Fun - 5/5, not a passive build and i liked it a lot! smart decisions to be made, and alternate playstyle for tackle each content (channelling X tapping SA)

For those interested here is my gear:

Thanks all! Great build and great community to help u!!

Hey Wolfie,

Thanks for the ideas regarding poison SA, loved the changes I have implented to my build thanks to Your wisdom :)

Had tons of fun with this variant of Barrage/SA PF, even crafted some cool hoodie for it with 3xElevated mod at the end of the league
