When many gamers start a new character build in Path of Exile, they usually run into the same problem: how to level up effectively. Every type of build levels differently. Feel free to tweak them as you go, and don’t invest too heavily outside of your desired build unless you don’t mind spending the Orbs of Regret. Remember, you’ll get around 20 points of regret by doing all of the quests, so use them wisely!
Traditional Spellcaster
This is the most basic leveling build for generic builds that use spell damage. It’s perfect for people who intend to use Frostbolt or Magma Orb, or any other spell-based damage later on. You’ll be using spells throughout the game to scale your damage properly.
Right from the start, put on all your leveling gear and take Freezing Pulse as your reward. Make sure you put it in your Lifesprigs if you don’t have a +1 level Tabula. Spells don’t have a ton of support gems off the bat, so don’t use the Tabula just yet. In fact, leave it in your inventory until you need it, because wearing armor reduces your movement speed.
Once you hit level four, grab Volley Support. At level eight, add in either Added Cold or Added Lightning (or both if you have a +1 Tabula). At level ten grab Flame Dash for increased movement. Hitting level 12 is the big one. Once you get there you can swap out your Freezing Pulse for Firestorm. This will carry you through to mapping. Make sure you take off the Volley support; you can put on either Added Cold or Added Lightning if you want.
Once you’ve hit level 18, grab Controlled Destruction and Elemental Focus. If you’re only using three links, these will be the two to support your Firestorm. Feel free to use all four of the mentioned supports though, and even Faster Casting if you want. However, you may have mana issues if you do this.
Summoner
Summoners don’t want traditional spell power as it doesn’t increase minion damage. As such, you’ll want an entirely different build, even for leveling. This will save you a lot of Orbs of Regret in the long run. Grab the same leveling gear and Freezing Pulse. Level the same way up to level eight, then switch to Summon Raging Spirits.
At level eight, your links should be Summon Raging Spirit, Melee Splash, and Minion Damage. At level 18, add Minion Speed and Melee Physical Damage. Throw in Elemental Focus if you can afford the mana. Eventually, make your sixth link Spell Echo. This will make you cast faster, and make more Spirits.
