[3.25] Splitting Steel Gladiator - All Uniques, Cheap League Start, Explody Mapping

Hello, first I want to start by saying thank you. I've played PoE for hundreds of hours but this is the first time I've been able to really push the end-game atlas and work on clearing shaper thanks to this build (I usually end up quitting after getting one shot on cyclone builds a few too many times and quit the league). I started a Steelchamp in the past following a different guide and it worked well, but it didn't work nearly as well as this one. So thank you very much for making such an easy to follow build with notes on progression all the way from acts to red maps!

I have a few questions because I don't really know where to progress my character from where I am right now. I die a bit due to my own skill issue so I'm leveling up rather slowly. I picked up an Atziri's Disfavour but I don't really know what to socket in there, I dropped some notables for points to put into a cluster jewel that I found (which was probably a mistake because I die a bit more). Other than leveling my character for more points where should I go from here?

Thanks again!

Hi
Just to thank you for making me discover the steel skills. I am not your guide with only unique, but I enjoyed discovering it.
The beginning was differ but now with determination/grace/suppress spell it works great.

The clear is very good and the bossing too. There is still a lot to improve and that's what I like.

Enjoy

PS: I tried with your belt and Immune Curse on the popo it's really excellent to be in maximum 90% of the time.

Glad to hear things are working well!

So, Precision we level just to get our Accuracy higher than life. We don't crit, so we don't get any other benefit from it. In 3.21 I am also linking it to Arrogance, so it reserves a bit of Life instead of Mana, so I can take advantage of the +1 all Resistances under the Reservation Mastery.

CWDT + Molten Shell I keep low level because the amount of DMG required to trigger CWDT increases with the gem level. Lvl 2 requires a very small difference from Lvl 1 to trigger, so that's what I pick for more triggering.

Divine Blessing, like Precision, has increased Mana cost the higher the level.

That's all I think...

EDIT: Just noticed you're leveling with regular Wings of Entropy, which is fine, since you're not using Brutality yet, but I've never used them myself early on and I'm curious... how do you like them?

Since I upgraded my gear I easily clear t1/2 maps (didnt have time to push further). So I'd say it's ok for now as I have more dps than needed.
Would you swap Chance to bleed or Maim to brutality instead in my current setup ?

I think i'll look for a good Replica soon anyway.

Thanks for the fast and clear answers, really appreciate it !

What was the difference in gloves you're using this league versus what you have in the guide?
Isn't there a max of one curse if you don't have the passive for multi cursing?

What are your thoughts on crucible tree for this build?
