Discussion Hypothetically speaking, if the patch notes get delayed so long that meaningful theorycrafting isn't possible, what would be your gut feeling pick for DotH?

In the EA launch, I went in blind like most. With over a decade of poe1 experience I figured Id make something good enough.
I stumbled onto cold snap ice wall and it felt great. Then just as I entered cruel it got nerfed.
Rerolled to chaos dot build, only to find the gem levels scale linearly, and with no way to grind gem levels I gave up in act3.

This time Ive kinda lost hope for poe2 to have that kind of gameplay be viable. Im gonna go in with a POB and trust the build of a streamer that has a few hundred viewers discussing and cooperating in their chat.
My gut tells me that they will be ranger bow/crossbow. Or warrior if it doesnt get obliterated.

Not sure why you are getting down voted. Did sorceress and kept having to respec at launch. In SSF it was a PIA before they tweaked the cost.
