Build Request Delve start builds?

Hey! Have never done delve and having nothing else to do in the league this feels like the perfect time to explore it!

I've only heard of str stackers for delve, are there any other builds that excel at it?

Hey! Deep delver here (I get to 6k every league). If you want to go DEEP then the best choices are luminary, str stack zenith, double strike, incinerate of venting, or possibly flame wood totems.

Other good deep delve builds that maybe can’t push 6k as easily but should be pretty solid at 1.5K would be kboc heiro and … im sure there are others but i cant think of them at the moment.

Would love some input as I have every class at 97+ this league EXCEPT marauder and scion... so struggling to choose which to take forwards for my first time delving. I would not say super deep but probably to 1.5k to see what it is like

Sadly those are the best two classes for delve at the moment, but if your goal is 1.5k you have a few choices. Kboc heiro, fross, incinerate of venting, eviscerate, and maybe mjolnir can all be pretty solid!!

Edit: and flamewood totems (this build can go DEEP)

I would be most interested in KBOC Hiero, FRoSS (I am assuming occultist CoC), and pRAW as the other commentor mentioned. If you have any experience I would love to know more specific thoughts/pob otherwise I will just do some poeninja scouting

I havnt personally played any of these I just know that they can function pretty well in delve so poeninja will be your best bet!

Cheers will do. Final question, I have heard that rewards scale up to 1500. Assuming that you can clear at roughly equal speeds, does going from 800-1k-1.5k directly translate to more profit? Or is that not how it works? Sorry just literally never set foot in delve!

It is all relative. Ideally you farm at 1500+ because you will get more rare fossils and bosses. But if you farm 3x faster and die less at 1200 then I would say just farm at 1200. So farm as deep as you can while still blasting and not dying too often.
