The Five Laziest Path of Exile Builds from TomRiva's blog

Path of Exile, like many action RPGs, doesn't demand high mechanical skill. While top StarCraft players might perform over 300 actions per minute, even the most intense Path of Exile builds require significantly fewer actions. Some builds, however, are so low-effort that they become almost passive. Here are five of the most effortless builds to help you effortlessly navigate the world of Wraeclast.

Flicker Strike builds are deceptive; despite the flashy teleportation, they require minimal effort. By utilizing Oro's Sacrifice or Terminus Est, you can clear entire maps with ease, simply by holding down right-click. These builds are not only effective but also budget-friendly, making them ideal for clearing bosses and progressing through maps without much hassle.

While more engaging than other builds on this list, a max-block Gladiator offers near invincibility. Designed by veteran streamer Alkaizer to counteract deaths from connection issues, this build provides explosive effects, incredible safety, and straightforward mechanics. It's perfect for those who want to survive and thrive with minimal effort.

Righteous Fire builds have surged in popularity, particularly as the 3.0 release approaches. Whether life-based or low-life, these builds are among the tankiest and safest. They scale damage by increasing the effective life pool, making characters both tougher and more powerful. Simply walk around, burn enemies, and watch your success unfold. Enhancing your damage with mechanics like Elemental Equilibrium, Elemental Overload, and Vaal Lightning Trap can further boost your boss-killing potential.

Abberath's Hooves builds revolve around a unique item that ignites nearby enemies as you run. Though it's the most expensive build on this list, it offers lazy gameplay combined with the ability to one-shot formidable bosses. The only active skill required is Vaal Righteous Fire, which can deal massive damage to bosses with a single button press.

This innovative and unconventional build combines a channeling skill with the movement spell Lightning Warp, resulting in constant teleports around the map. Damage comes from various unique items, such as Tulfall Dischargers and Cospri's Malice spellcasters. One example is a Cast-When-Damage-Taken-Suicide-Heartbound-Loop-Berserker with SRS, Vortex, Frostbolt, and Sire of Shards. Simply hold down your channeling skill and let the game's mechanics handle the rest, epitomizing a truly lazy build. However, fine-tuning this build for maximum efficiency is far from simple.

These builds exemplify the most laid-back ways to experience Path of Exile, allowing you to progress with minimal effort and maximum efficiency.
