While leveling do you guys get any aura or herald at act2 until you can use malevolence or do you ignore it?

Skitterbots

I don't think it's very problematic to level because you'd have access to most skills and supports from the get go and you won't need to level with another skill and respec.

Since it's a hybrid life / ES build you also won't have the issue CI builds have "when do I transition from life to ES".

If you wanna league start with this, I'd go caustic arrow -> toxic rain, you get them both in act 1, and from supports prio void manipulation (act1) and vicious projectiles (act2).

You can pick skitterbots (act2) when you get access to it for some early damage boost.

From the tree pick the closeby chaos damage wheels and supplement with life when you feel you're starting to get chunked. Don't pick ES nodes until you have some ES on gear and get acro around the time you're about to finish levelling and get to maps.

My usual strat is to try to get 2x 4-link for both ca and tr and level with both together. Don't bother with herald of agony it barely does anything (just saying since a lot of people ask if it has a place in this build). In act3 you will get despair, you can manually cast it on bosses, but shouldn't be needed for normal mobs.

Around act3-4 you need to start paying attention to your resistances, I didn't and was dying on mobs before innocence and kaom, but softcore life yolo.

If someone will write better levelling guide / tips feel free to follow that instead, in the meanwhile I hope these tips will help.

P.S. If you find a bow with +1 to socketed bow gems early it's very worth it, last season I ran with a 3-link bow with +1 bow gems from lvl 7 to blood aqueduct and it was outperforming adding an extra link / ditching the bow setup.
