POE Betrayal Ascendant Reave + DS+ BF Starter Build - High DPS, Cheap, Tankly, Good Mapping Speed
Reave is the vital skill in this build. Reave is a melee attack that deals damage in a small area in front of you, temporarily increasing the area of effect each time you hit an enemy.
This build does not need super high cost gear, and it is very good to starter for shaper kill. You can also easily do all contents but if you want to kill uber-elder very easily, you need some currencies (not very much).

You have to use totem and reave for bleeding enemy so that your DS could work properly.

Leveling
This build is great (and easy) to level. I was able to complete the story in ~7 hours. Below is a breakdown of the recommended gear/items, and skill tree buildout.
First, we use Vaal Double Strike to level. Once you get Ancestral Call at 4, it's cake will take you all the way to using Reave. It also melts bosses.
To start, use VDS(Frost blade)+ AC+ Onslaught+ Bleed (you can use frost blade, smite on the body but have to put 4L - VDS on another position)
Level up all of the end-game gems listed below. I recommend buying them from the vendor with another character (if you can). If not, you'll get them as you progress. You want 2x swords or axes in your second weapons set with the proper colors to level gems you can't equip (or don't need).
Switch to Reave at 46 when you can use Ornament of the West - but swap in Double Strike for bosses and Lab until you get the Shaped gloves around 70

POE Betrayal Ascendant Aura Support Starter Build - Cheap, Tankly, Endgame
This build is based on Aura Support. Forget the power of loot-filter and poe.trade, for so much has been forgotten, never to be relearned. Forget the promise of Atlas-progress and Challenge League Rewards, for in the grim dark month's ahead there is only the grind. There is no peace amongst the price-fixer, only an eternity of 820-spamming and carnage
