@f4ward do you intend to update before league start or should i look elsewhere?


Ofc he intend to do it if he can. But if you are in a hurry, look in other side or try yourself.
Tree had many changes so its not easy. Although he already made one pob for 3.16 for test.
The no cluster / cheap POB seems to translate pretty well to 3.16. Without going for acrobatics/wind dancer you can now reach the DOT and Chaos clusters on the top left. Just leaves defense as a question, but with all the extra reservation nodes along the path it does fit both Purity and Determination.

And Tarke posted his league start might be close to this build:

Discusses Caustic Arrow Occultist using recoup life nodes and possible addition of death's oath.
Considering all the changes in 3.16 it's hard to recommend a single a setup.

Previously the tree was based on pretty extensive testing during the league (starting from Heist, when I first published the build), but this time I don't really have the option.

I have prepared a POB with 1 cluster and no cluster variants for both Armour and Evasion (4 in total).

2 Cluster variant seems unnecessary because of all the goodies on the tree, but would allow to maximize offense at the cost of defense.

Currently POB is not updated with current gem values so it's a bit hacky.

Under "Configuration" -> "Custom modifiers" there are additional values for Determination and Grace. You will need to comment/uncomment the relevant item when looking at defenses and activating the relevant Aura.

Purity of Elements is set to level 29, for the resistances that the new gem will grant.

I personally will start with the Armour variant and see how it goes from there. There will be more updates to the POB during the league, once I get some feeling about it.

Full guide will be updated during the league

p.s.
There are very good ideas in POBs from other posters in the last several pages. So you are welcome to review them as well

Go for Alacrity first thing and fill the right side of the tree where we have dexterity.
