Path of Exile 2's Return of the Ancients update has completely reshaped the endgame landscape. New alternate gem qualities, powerful unique items, and game-breaking interactions have opened the door to some of the strongest builds we've seen yet.
Whether you want to zoom through maps at lightning speed, automate entire screens of destruction, or erase pinnacle bosses in seconds, these builds are dominating the current meta. If you're considering a reroll, these are the builds turning ordinary characters into endgame monsters.
The Zero-Button Machine Gun That Never Stops Firing
The Cast on Dodge Ember Fusillade Gemling is quickly becoming one of the most feared builds in the game.
By combining Cast on Dodge with the Gemling Legionnaire's alternate-quality scaling, every dodge roll unleashes a barrage of Ember Fusillade projectiles. Increased dodge distance generates more trigger energy, while movement speed scaling allows players to travel faster than sprinting.
The result? A nearly hands-free autobomber that clears maps while you simply roll through them. Add Snakepit chains and Palm of the Dreamer's chaos explosions, and entire screens disappear before enemies can react.
