Poe 3.6 Slayer nerfs: This is still a pretty viable build even with the nerfs to the slayer ascendancy for the ascendant. Winter orb loses some dps but we are only using it to clear. Ice Spear gains additional base dmg. Vaal RF is less powerful (-11% more dmg). No changes to cast while channeling
This build clears pretty fast as expected of a winter orb setup while dealing millions of dps to obliterate bosses and syndicate members with ice spears. The idea here is to combine the fastest clearing spell build that has built-in auto-targeting with the highest dps spell in the game to create a build that is both fast at clearing and has an amazing single target. The scion ascendancy gives us the option to obtain slayer leech as well as reflect immunity on top of the good clear speed and single target we already have.
Pros & Cons:
+ All Content Viable.
+ Tanky.
+ Resolute Technique.
+ Unique Items Heavy.
- Not a great league starter.
- Have to reroll some map mods.
- Can be high budget.
Ascendancy:
Probably elementalist + inquisitor for this league
elementalist + slayer is fine too. 2.5 seconds of overleach is still pretty decent and we do have a high leech uptime when moving through maps because winter orb is an auto-targeting duration skill
Bandits:
Help alira! Obvious choice for a crit build
Pantheon:
Major God – Soul Arachali with 50% increased Recovery of Life and Energy Shield if you've stopped taking Damage Over Time Recently
Minor God – Gruthkul for mapping Yugul for Uber Elder
Gems Setup:
Single Target:
Elemental Hit - Elemental Damage with Attacks - Combustion - Mirage Archer - Fire Penetration - Damage on Full Life
Clearing;
Elemental Hit - Elemental Damage with Attacks - Greater Multiple Projectiles - Combustion - Mirage Archer - Fire Penetration
If you are using Frostferno I like putting my Single Target:
Elemental Hit - Elemental Damage With Attacks - Mirage Archer - Combustion

The onslaught on Hit is now mentioned in the ring section. Endurance Charge when hit implicit is now mentioned in the Body Armor section. Leech nerfs are Relevant! Will need to attack more often and play a little more careful. Damage is preserved. Tombfist nerf hurts - still probably best glove.

2.PoE 3.6 Ascendant Scourge Arrow Build
This build is a Scion (Slayer / Juggernaut) that uses the new skill Scourge Arrow in order to deal with every boss in the game as well as to map with, though you can use different skills (Rain of Arrows is a good choice for mapping) should you desire. Through the Slayer and Juggernaut ascendancies, it gains over leech, endurance charges, immunity to stuns and chills as well as a few offensive bonuses. Through the power of Abyssal Jewels, we completely ignore what Scourge Arrow was actually meant for and stack as much flat elemental damage as possible.Pros & Cons:
+ Easy and Achievable Items.
+ Adaptable.
+ Easy Map Boss Killer.
+ 5.6K+ Life.
+ Starter Build Friendly.
+ Beginner Friendly Endgame.
- Cannot do REFLECT Maps.
- Cannot do Hall of Grandmasters.

3.PoE 3.6 Ascendant Winter Orb Build
This build relies on crafting your own gear including a Cast While Channeling Staff ..if you are on a really tight budget I have a super budget version of the build[~ 5 mil dps] for you in the Pob pastebin section 7.4 at the end that requires 0 crafting and should have enough dps to take on all content. If you are very nervous, you can get Path of Exile Currency in a variety of ways. There by obtaining the equipment and items of this construction, etc.Poe 3.6 Slayer nerfs: This is still a pretty viable build even with the nerfs to the slayer ascendancy for the ascendant. Winter orb loses some dps but we are only using it to clear. Ice Spear gains additional base dmg. Vaal RF is less powerful (-11% more dmg). No changes to cast while channeling
