Could you go slayer and just pickup the gladiator node via the 2 unique jewel combo? Wouldn't be a league start plan, but at some point.
Can't remember what those jewels are called but seems like it'd solve that issue

One of the things I was brain farting was using flame/flesh combo for avatar of the wilds while fully speccing barkskin and tinctures. Without knowing how strong tincture will be I definitely won't do this league start, but I do want to test barkskin and tinctures eventually.
I assume you can use flame/flesh combos to get ascendancies that are behind other asc points right?

so last league I got a boneshatter juggernaut to 95 then an lightning arrow deadeye to 97. Prior to that my only other significant character was some blade vortex assassin 3 years ago.
Putting aside any balance changes, what would be a good class archetype to play to sample some different gameplay? eg a caster instead of a melee or ranged

It seems really strong, I'm probably rolling molten strike slayer, maybe shield/claw and go for lucky block flesh jewels later. Haven't pob'd anything yet.
You could try a caster like heiro archmage ball lightning, wave of conviction elementalist, or a minion build like SRS or zoomancer, or if you're feeling particularly adventurous, a mine build like hexblast or exsanguinate.

If you (or any other newer player) want safe, proven strong meta builds, you can take a look at Tyty's list, and then look up some videos on youtube to see how they play, and then the most important thing to make your decision is to go to the build guides themselves and take a very hard look at the CONS of the build, because everyone loves to sing the praises of their builds, but the cons will tell you all you really need to know about it. Pick what seems least annoying.

Very nice, hadn't thought of that. Is there a skill that abuses this better than Lightning Strike? As in, one that still clears acceptably(so, not MS) but doesn't have a disagreeable positioning requirement?

Frostblades, the answer is always frostblades. Maybe smite or static strike? I don't know offhand how those deal their AE/beam damagees.

I REALLY hope someone puts those in a Bleed pob but doesn't make it clear you still need to inflict an elemental ailment so people get confused and brick the build
