I'll probably try a General's Cry Shield Crush Berserker this time. I hope I can get my first two voidstones and gear up a more meta build with it after a while.

Isn’t it the other way around? First do meta build to fund a fun/interesting build?
I mean league meta, if that makes sense. Like explody totems this league. We don't know what that will be yet for next league.
I sometimes like to not build a meta and go for a mid game build right away. Makes it a bit more challenging and i dont have to make another character right away
I am flirting with Boneshatter Chieftain, because what could possibly go wrong?
Are there anything relevant on Chieftain for Boneshatter now? I don't remember any damage nodes.
Not really, it's most likely a bad idea. I'm thinking converting most of the damage taken to elemental and cap out max resistances. I also contemplating doing full damage conversion to fire, since that stun as if doing 50% more melee damage node looks nice. In any case, it should turn out pretty tanky at least.
Some kind of totem starter, most likely Hiero. Played shockwave in sanctum, but there are a few others....
Inquisitor RF. Been a while since I did that.
Tried out Enki's new lightning conduit build in honor of his Arc Witch build retiring. It's played very smoothly and I'm pushing into yellow maps just fine with minimal investment so far.
Enki's Arc Witch was the build that got me semi-competent back in the day, so it's been a nice and comfortable return to my roots.
Tried to speed-run the campaign on launch and I now have a benchmark personal best of 9hr 36min /played. Lot of room for improvement, and I look forward to getting that time down in future leagues.
I might either do a cold dot, totem arc or a spark league start. Looking over the new gems is giving me ideas but not sure.
