A league start that maps
Pick a skill that levels without a unique that costs a divine. Resist cap before damage. A pretty tree with 40 fire res still dies in yellow maps.
Check this resource when a new league moves the campaign rewards.
Flasks, pantheon, and atlas
Flasks are the build. Life, a defensive suffix, and a movement flask cover most starts. Atlas points should feed the farm you actually like, not every mechanic at once.
Sell clutter on a schedule. A dump tab that never gets listed is lost currency.
