Welcome to a tanky caster build that ignores reflect, which I named the Chaos Agnostic build that makes use of the new Timeless Jewel that drops in Legion League, more specifically the Militant Faith Timeless Jewel which converts passive keystone in range into The Agnostic.

The idea was to make a build that relied on its Mana for survivability much like "Mana Shield" from Diablo but Mind over Matter alone never seem to gave me that feeling as it diverted a portion of the damage. When I saw the new Keystone called The Agnostic, I knew I needed to try again as 20% of Mana recovered as Life looked promising.

Key to making this build successful is to get as much Flat Mana regeneration such as from Clarity, etc. and % Max Mana regeneration such as from Cloak of Defiance, etc. Both the mana lost and life recovered from Agnostic happens by "ticks" and happens gradually, not instantly or in "chunks" of 20%. This means if the player loses any amount of life, the proportionate amount of mana sacrificed to be recovered back at life at a capped rate of 20% max mana per second and there does not seem to be a way to overcome this cap. There is however a way to increase the rate of recovery for life and mana as there is are stats/mod in POE called "X% Life Recovery Rate" or "X% Mana Recovery Rate". These mods are however very rare in this game and only directly available through Watcher's Eye Jewel, Shaper/Elder Belt and Flow Untethered Unique Belt or indirectly through Ascendancies and Pantheon but are mostly conditional.

PROS & CONS:

+ Tanky - About 6500 effective life, near instant heals on non-one-shot-hits

+ Non-meta build - Self Cast on Self Dark Pact (no skeletons)

+ Chaos Damage - Can handle elemental and physical reflect with no problems

+ Zoom zoom zoom - Permanent Onslaught thanks to Dance of the Offered boots

+ Good Mapper - Can do maps with any map mod except NO life/mana recovery. 

+ Easy to assemble - Mostly require uniques which are non-meta and cheap.

- Life and Mana build - Need to get used to Mind over Matter playstyle of managing both Life and Mana constantly.

- Not Shaper/Elder farmer - Sorry, this ain't no instant Shaper killing build

- No offscreening - Can only kill whats on screen, no instant Legion clearing machine 

- Cannot do NO life & mana recovery map mod.

ASCENDANCY:

1. Divine Guidance

2. Illuminated Devotion

3. Conviction of Power

4. Arcane Blessing

BANDITS:

Help Alira for 5 mana regenerated per second which is multiplied many folds for this build in later levels.

PANTHEON:

Major God - Soul of Lunaris

Minor God - Soul of Garukhan

This build is based around the Melee AOE skill Cleave and is played using the Slayer ascendancy for Duelist. While Slayer is strong this build has quite a few growing pains while going through Act 10 and Early Maps. If you are experience you can probably pull this off SSF however in my experience I found Path of Exile Uniques Items I bought (very common ones) were a saviour in transitioning to maps.

Using Winter Spirit we convert 40% of our Physical Damage to Cold Damage so that we can shatter and freeze enemies easier. Alongside Herald of Ice this will give us huge clear speed which is the premise of the build. On the tree we stack fat attack speed, fat dual wield mods and fat critical strike chance, giving us the ideal Cleave machine. Not only that but we go with ridiculous AoE cause why not. I chose Slayer as thanks to 3.7 almost every one of his Ascendancy points are insane, and we have easy access to quality of life things such as big crit chance, life leech and up to 50% Increased Area of Effect.

Pros & Cons:

+ Cheap

+ Boosted AoE Clear thanks to Herald of Ice shatters

+ Attack speed and Crit Multi is wilding thanks to 3.7 Duelist Area

+ Fun way to play a melee skill thats not Cyclone (Cyclone next build though Pog)

+ Can level from right after Hillock with Cleave

- Not a Jugg, you can't tank the world (I just meme and dream)

- Elemental Reflect is doable, but very awkward due to huge Cold Conversion

- Cleave itself can't compete with top tier Melee skills (It's fun though)

- A lot of travelling on the tree, can be awkward while levelling

Ascendancy:

- Overwhelm 

- Impact

- Headsman

- Bane of Legends

Bandits: Kill all.

Pantheons:

Major God - Soul of Lunaris or Soul of Solaris

Minor God - Soul of Garukhan or Soul of Shakari

Cleave - Multistrike - Pulverise - Faster Attacks - Concentrated Effect - Hypothermia

Whirling Blades - Faster Attacks - Blood Magic

Summon Ice Golem - Blood Rage - Dash

Herald of Ice - Curse on Hit - Punishment - Hatred
