That experience as well as getting as much insight as possible from other potent and top tier Path of Exile players is what determines whether a build guide is warranted a higher or lower ranking on this page.
Hello, I’m TbXie, someone who has sunk over 25.000 hours in Path of Exile as of when I started to write Guides. You can read below to get more details about each of the builds we mentioned. Note that within each tier, the builds are not in order. Whilst some of the are more notorious for being strong early game, others might have risen up there because they bring a decent early game but scale into the end game so easily. This page covers the builds that we have picked out to be excellent choices to be your League Starter. However, if you are adamant about playing a top tier build, the following list will help you pick one as it is regularly updated when new builds rise to the surface. Especially in Path of Exile, you should not constrain yourself to only playing S-Tier builds & Ascendancies. When it comes to tier lists, I will not argue having a monopoly on wisdom, as a lot of this is vulnerable to bias and preference.
