[3.4 OUTDATED] Cleave Poison Assassin - Cheap Build - League Starter

This build use Cleave and the poison mechanic with Assassin. Actually it's an idea but i think this can be an good build. I will update the guide during the league. (This build can be play with other melee gem like Lacerate or Reave ...)

Why ?

What is the big problem of cleave ? It's AOE. Before it was difficult to have an good map clearing that's why with Herald of Agony we can now have a pretty decent map clearing and cleave apply two poison stacks per hit.

How it's work ?

Every hit by cleave will inflict two poison stacks on ennemy but also two Virulence stacks for Herald of agony. More Virulence stacks we have, more the minion from herald of Agony will do damage. We have the map clearing.

  • Very Cheap

Ascendancy




Bandits

Bandits :
Kill them all for 2 passive points or take Alira for more damage but less tankiness.


Pantheon

Pantheon :
  • Brine King
  • Ryslatha



Gears

Weapons :
In this build we use swords, Ahn's Might can be good choices at the start of the build, they give accuracy, crit and pretty decent damage for cheap price but we need sword with poison damage and poison duration to get more poison stacks and damage and also a good physical base.

Body :
They are two items that can be good in this build, Belly of the beast or Queen of the forest, Belly of the beast brings good ammount and Elemental Resistances. Queen of the forest give much evasion rating so we have more chance to dodge and hit physical reduction.

Helmet :
Starkonja can be a very good item, cheap and give good stats likes life, crits and evasion but if you want MORE and MORE damage, just play Abyssus.

Gloves :
With gloves, we try to get Blind on hit or Socketed Gem are support by Blind for get for possibility to dodge if we need Life and Elemental Resistances.

Boots, Rings, Belt, Amulet :
Simple : Life and Elemental Resistances.

Cleave + Multistrike + Deadly Ailments + Unbound Ailments + Added Chaos Damage + Vile Toxins

Sup, just decided to play this build and it looks interesting. Actually use blade flurry while leveling because of big AS and poison stacking. But I have one question: how do you sustain mana? In pob there is just mana regen 11 without some mana leech...Guess you should use amulet with mana leech but there is no info here. And why don't you use Pacifism jewel to activate Ahn's bonuses?
