The Newest Path of Exile League: Settlers of Kalguur 3.25
The newest Path of Exile League, Settlers of Kalguur 3.25, launches today! We've updated the guides on our sister site, PoE Vault, to ensure that Exiles are well-prepared to help Kalguuran pioneers build the town of Kingsmarch and establish trade between Wraeclast and their homeland.
For new players who would like to try out Path of Exile, you can follow our “How to Start” guide. Path of Exile is not an easy game, but with our guide and Discord help, there is no reason not to try the game out and enjoy all the fun Wraeclast has to offer in this amazing ARPG from Grinding Gear Games.
The Settlers of Kalguur Challenge League
In the Settlers of Kalguur Challenge League, you’ll come across familiar faces from the Expedition league: Dannig, Rog, Tujen, and Gwennen. They are on a mission to gather resources in Wraeclast to initiate town construction and establish a shipping trade route to Kalguur. To aid in this endeavor, they have enlisted numerous characters from Wraeclast, some of whom you might recognize. However, they also need the assistance of a powerful Exile like yourself. This Path of Exile July expansion introduces the Settlers of Kalguur challenge league with the following:
A New Trade Market System for Currency Many Changes to the Endgame Changes to Tier 17 Maps New Bosses Additions to the Campaign A lot of Quality-of-Life features Reworked Endgame New Supporter Packs For more information, please head over to the PoE Vault Settlers of Kalguur League Hub.
Recommended Builds for the Settlers of Kalguur League
We’d like to give you a few recommendations of what we believe to be some of the strongest league starter builds (although any build tagged as a League Starter and updated for 3.25 is a very solid choice).
CasualDanPoe’s - Minion Army Necromancer is a cheap league starter that will enable you to farm tier 16 maps on a budget. Fast, deadly, with a lot of quality-of-life features. If you’d like to feel like a General of an Undead Army, then try out this league starter and you’re not going to be disappointed. BalorMage’s - Poison Summon Raging Spirits Necromancer is going to be one of the best minion builds of Trial of the Ancestors. This build excels in not only getting your maps clear, but it’s an excellent boss killer. With the new Atlas bosses, this build will not let you down and is described as the most OP minion build of the league. GhazzyTV’s - Zoomancer Necromancer proved itself last League. Having your own army of minions doing all the work for you! Giving good clear speed and consistent bossing damage, the build is perfect for both beginners and veterans alike and a solid league starter choice.
GhazzyTV’s – Dominating Blow Necromancer is an insanely strong league start ability offering a lot of variations for the end game. Thanks to the straightforward design of the ability, we can tweak this build into some pretty juicy defensive styles, allowing it to be a solid first choice for starting a league in Hardcore as well! GhazzyTV’s – Holy Relic Guardian is a very strong minion build that requires very few items to work well. Unlike most summoner builds, Holy Relic plays very differently and it offers a different way of playing summoner. This is a very strong league starter on a budget. TbXie’s Lightning Strike Warden is a well-versed build guide that focuses on durability as well as damage. It has a pretty forgiving entry point and requires almost no gear whilst still providing you with enough potential upgrades to give you a sense of progression. TbXie’s – Cyclone Slayer offers incredibly clear speed and an old overlapping style of scaling its damage to the point where it becomes an absolute powerhouse. For players who like to blast through the game on a budget and want a build that is expandable with an acceptable amount of currency and incredible returns, this is a one-of-a-kind build. TbXie’s – Hexblast Miner Saboteur is a build for you if you've ever wanted to build a miner that does not feel clunky. This build is an insane and obscene powerhouse in the late game but does well for a League Starter also. Pohx’s - Righteous Fire Chieftain has been a staple of the last league starts and solo self-found alike. Righteous Fire has been a true Path of Exile staple since the skill gem was introduced. The concept of running through maps while hordes of monsters die around you is a true Power Fantasy. Pohx’s - Righteous Fire Juggernaut version can easily hold its own. Juggernaut has a much easier time getting the defensive layers online. Also, no need for anything complex as this build is great for first-timers since your main defensive layers come from Armour stacking. If you're new to Righteous Fire, this version is excellent for you.
Velyna’s - Tornado Inquisitor is the build for players who like to harness the elements and unleash them to seek and destroy. Sending out Tornadoes that will chase any nearby enemies. A relaxed play style with high mobility and safety. Velyna’s Explosive Concoction Ascendant is an absolute beast for endgame bossing. The build synergizes very well as a League starter till end game. It has high levels of damage and survivability, giving massive sustain through Life Gain on Hit. A solid league starter with good potential for the end game. Velyna’s Ground Slam Slayer is a strong League Starter not requiring expensive uniques or heavy crafting to kill bosses early, and this remains true today. If you want to cruise through the acts into the endgame quickly and easily, this is the build for you. PoEVault’s – Ice Shot Deadeye is an excellent league starter and requires very little investment to start rolling over maps and bosses. Due to the range and nature of Ice Shot, even content that outstrips your current character or power level can be easily approached at a distance and eliminated. A very good recommended bow build for this League. PoEVault’s – Boneshatter Juggernaut is not the fastest build, but it is sturdy and it smacks things with its big stick. It is one of the very few viable “true melee” builds left in the game and Juggernaut is a natural fit for Boneshatter as Juggernaut becomes a very tanky build. If you love a sturdy melee build, this is a very good league starter for you.
To make your leveling experience easier, you can pick up our Quick Reference Leveling guide.
If you're thinking about getting into Path of Exile (it's free-to-play!) with this newest league, our mods are available to answer any of your questions, so please feel free to join their Discord.
We wish you an amazing league start.

This build brings very enjoyable clear speed as well as efficient bossing to the table. A solid League Starter.
TbXie’s - Hexblast Miner Saboteur plays like a miner but is less clunky than you would imagine and the AoE and clear speed make it feel more like a caster. If you’re looking for a solid league starter but also a build to invest later in, while feeling safe and doing insane numbers then this is the build for you. TbXie’s - Shockwave Totem Hierophant offers incredibly clear speed and an old overlapping style of scaling its damage to the point where it becomes an absolute powerhouse. For players who like to blast through the game on a budget and want a build that is expandable with an acceptable amount of currency and incredible returns, this is a one-of-a-kind build. TbXie’s - Wintertide Brand Occultist is a build for you if ever wanted to try a damage-over-time (DoT) build that doesn’t feel clunky because it is rather squishy, you’ve come to the right place! This Occultist combines so many layers of Defenses that I’d argue it's nearly unkillable. Pohx’s - Righteous Fire Inquisitor has been a staple of league starts and solo self-found alike. Righteous Fire has been a true Path of Exile staple since the skill gem was introduced. The concept of running through maps while hordes of monsters die around you is a true Power Fantasy.

This build brings very enjoyable clear speed as well as efficient bossing to the table. A solid League Starter. TbXie’s Firestorm Inquisitor was one of the most popular builds both in league-starting and later environments in Crucible. It is one of those builds that we felt could not be missing. Firestorm is an underrated skill but can be built around in multiple ways for mapping and bossing.
TbXie’s Shockwave Totem Hierophant offers incredibly clear speed and an old overlapping style of scaling its damage to the point where it becomes an absolute powerhouse. For players who like to blast through the game on a budget and want a build that is expandable with an acceptable amount of currency and incredible returns, this is a one of a kind build. TbXie’s Explosive Arrow Ballista Champion has been one of the most popular builds for newer players for the longest of times.

This build is primarily a mapping build and thrives off creating explosion chains that deletes most of the screen in a satisfying manner. This build is to be suitable for anyone, both new and returning players. PoEVault’s – Corrupting Fever Champion is a premium build that remains a powerhouse league in and league out. If you enjoy dot builds, or you want a welcome change of pace or style, then this build will be more than capable to let you enjoy smashing monsters. Very easy play style and a recommendation for new player. PoEVault’s – Ice Shot Deadeye This build is an excellent league starter and requires very little investment to start rolling over maps and bosses.

With these League changes Ghazzy revived his fan favourite Mage Skeleton build. This build brings a very enjoyable clear speed as well as efficient bossing to the table. A solid League Starter. TbXie’s Cyclone Slayer is back on the table as one of the most popular builds in league-starting and later environments, and is one of those guides that we felt could not be missing. Cyclone is a popular skill and can be built around in multiple ways for mapping and bossing. TbXie’s Shockwave Totem Hierophant offers incredible clear speed and an old overlapping style of scaling its damage to the point where it becomes an absolute powerhouse. For players who like to blast through the game on a budget and want a build that is expandable with an acceptable amount of currency and incredible returns. This is a one-of-a-kind build. TbXie’s Explosive Arrow Ballista Champion has been one of the most popular builds for newer players for the longest of times. Especially after recent tree changes it pushed its single target boss killing capabilities up by quite a significant amount, this build is an excellent one for both new and experienced players alike. Pohx's Righteous Fire Inquisitor has been a staple of League starts and solo self-found alike, ever since the skill gem was introduced. The concept of running through maps while hordes of monsters die around you is a true Power Fantasy. Pohx's Righteous Fire Juggernaut version can easily hold its own. Juggernaut has a much easier time getting the defensive layers online.

CasualDanPoe's Minion Army Necromancer is a cheap League Starter that will enable you to farm tier 16 maps on a budget. Fast, deadly, with a lot of quality of life features. If you’d like to feel like a General of an Undead Army, then try out this League Starter and you’re not going to be disappointed. Corrupting Fever Champion has been a steady choice among mapping-focused players for league start. It’s fast, relatively sturdy, and not too difficult to get going. As a bonus it can be scaled into a true late-game monster if you are willing to invest, through a transition over to Gladiator. Very easy play style and a recommendation for new players. Shield Crush Juggernaut has been popular among the “True Melee” crowd forever. It differs from most skills in that it doesn’t use your weapon to scale damage, and instead opts to scale its damage through the stats on your shield as well as hitting targets with the shield. A solid League Starter. Lacerate Gladiator can reach similar heights on significantly less gear, and with a unique style and flair that few other melee skills have. This is partially because Lacerate is not a true melee skill - in the end game, you will be able to obliterate packs nearly a full screen away. If you like a more melee-style build, be sure to check this one out! To make your leveling experience easier, you can pick up our Quick Reference Levelling guide.
