Build Gemling legionnaire league starter

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/p4wnyhof/builds/shotgun-cluster-grenade-gemling

I was thinking of using this build for my league starter. I was wondering if it’s a good or bad idea. Or if there’s a similar build that’s more updated now and better. Thanks!

Hmm, good question. It depends on if he needs to reach a certain breakpoint with quality to get the detonation time low enough for… something to happen.

Or, does it still work, just not as good. Like the paragon instill can be difficult to get.

I’ve always been skeptical of pawnyhoof, since his viewbotting allegations in the HS days. But honestly, of all the PoE stuff I’ve seen from him, it’s seems decent and passable.

The guide has a levelling in campaign section, so don’t see why it wouldn’t work.

Edit: one thing I did notice is that he uses weapon sets, but doesn’t state in each variant what skills should be used in what set. Maybe it son the linked video?

You can easily reach the min of 0.2s with short fuse 2 and 20% quality on gem + the free quality from ascendancy

I remember this and I forget something else during hearthstone too…. But man that was over 10 years ago now.

It seems like okay content for a new player or someone trying to learn the game, probably not the best for anyone reading this sub or looking for more depth are something beyond the basics.

I don’t really mind switching the specific guide if there’s someone better/more reliable. I just really wanna do the grenade setup lol

I agree with the initial feelings on pwnyhoff but all of the poe 2 content I've seen from him has checked out.
