Bandit choice is not permanent *costs 20 regret to undo*.
The Crypt Level 1 Trial of Ascendancy
Chamber of Sins Level 2 Trial of Ascendancy
Intruders in Black Reward Summon Skitterbots

Reserve skitterbots.
The Western Forest (Way Forward) Passive Point - (Go to Act 1 Bestel)
Sharp and Cruel Reward Trap and Mine Damage Support
Links (in order of importance): Lightning Trap + Trap and Mine dmg + Swift Assembly + Added Lightning dmg


Act 3
IMPORTANT: Obtain a Vaal Discipline skill gem
Buy it or search vaal side areas when you encounter them.
Add vaal disc to any socket for now and have the vaal effect on a easy-to-press keybind.

This key will become your "life-flask" when you transition to ES, so get used to pressing it, even while playing life/es hybrid. You can use the Vaal effect even without needing to reserve the discipline skill yet.
Crematorium Trial of Ascendancy
Lost in Love Reward Wrath

You can reserve this, but you won't have much mana to work with if you do.
I suggest reserving skitterbots and a lvl 1-5 clarity instead.
The Catacombs Trial of Ascendancy
Sever the Right Hand Reward Lightning Spire Trap
Fixture of Fate Reward Lightning Penetration Support

Replace Added Lightning Dmg with Lightning Penetration.
Keep leveling your added lightning dmg in a free socket as you'll need it later.
If you have a 6L use both gems.

Links in order: Lightning Trap, Swift, Trap&Mine dmg, Lightning Pen, Inspiration Support, Added Lightning dmg.
Victario's Secrets (Hargan) Passive Point
Piety's Pets (Grigor) Passive Point
The Imperial Gardens Trial of Ascendancy


Act 4
Breaking the Seal Reward Summon Stone Golem

This golem is optional to use, if you have an available red socket.
The Mines Level 2 Passive Point
The Eternal Nightmare Reward Cluster Traps Support

Cluster is great for clearing while swift has more single target dmg.
You can try using cluster instead of swift or vice versa and see what your preference is.

I suggest leveling the one you're not using in your offhand so you have both.
