League Starter - Eye of Winter Triggerbots feat. Armageddon Brand leveling [PoE 3.23]

IMPORTANT: Since this builds creation, patches have removed/changed mana cost flask suffix and Inspiration Support making mana costs much more difficult to manage. You will need to modify the build to accommodate.

This video is a guide for building towards Eye of Winter / Arcanist Brand with Triggerbots in a league-start scenario. I cover the mechanical requirements of the build and how to level a character at league start using Armageddon Brand. I discuss how to prepare to swap from an Armageddon Brand setup over to Eye of Winter and how to further progress the character from zero to Mageblood and beyond. Consider this guide as a skeleton of a build; feel free to modify to your own personal tastes. Not suggested for new players.

The build is league-start viable when following this guide, but it won't be the fastest or most efficient in that scenario. It really shines at higher investments. If your goal is to min-max the league start economy, I suggest looking elsewhere.
