55 articlesRunning a good league starter at the start of any new league in Path of Exile makes the game a lot easier to progress. After all, the recommended league starter builds that you see on YouTube and POE’s own forums are designed for that purpose.
But how exactly do you choose a good league starter? What is the basis that people use to call a specific build a league starter? Let’s find out.

Well, there are a couple of things you need to consider. First and foremost, you have to take your playstyle into account. Do you prefer getting up close and personal? Or would you rather fire at your enemies from a distance?

The second thing you want to consider is the build’s mechanics itself. While most league starter builds are designed to be beginner-friendly, some just have unique mechanics that will be a bit overwhelming to learn.
As a result, you’ll find that the build you pick ends up being a chore if you don’t like its specific mechanic.
The last one you’d want to take into account is the build’s budget. Even though they’re league starters, some builds will be more expensive to build than others. Keep in mind that every new league has a fresh economy. This means that players will have no currency or items in their inventory for their very first character in that league.
This means that if you choose a league starter build that requires a bit of investment, it might take you a while to keep that build running. Also, some builds require a certain unique item to function. And with the nerf in the drop rate of unique items, that just means spending more time to grind.
