Super excited to start 3.24 with this, amazing work by everyone involved here.

I normally play SSFHC exclusively and rip at some point but I thought I might try something elsethis time, push the endgame and experience the whole game but I´m not 100% sure yet.

Any opinions on how this build will perform in the below environments? How hard is it to get it going? I don´t mind being patient...

A) SSFHC
B) SSFSC
C) Trade HC

Thanks
Benjo

It is harder to get the staff in SSF nowadays. You can check the advice people gave for farming the staff (see page 291, around Nov 12, 2023).
This means you likely need to find an SSFHC viable shadow build to reach early mapping first.

Thanks, already checked that, makes sense to me. Beside getting the staff, will this build survive with SSF gear in HC? The budget POB seems to have super weak EHP but I may be wrong...

There are only 1 character in SSFHC Affliction and 6 characters in SSFHC Ancestor (based on poe.ninja).
Most have around 6K~7K EHP. This isn't safe enough to survive one-shot IMO.
However, these characters have very bad gears too. Farming the decent ES+Int gears and the alternative uniques (amulet, belt and maybe also the boot which could drop when you farm the oil) before the transition to this build is probably important for HC.

It is simpler for non-HC as you can progressively improve the gears.

Just in case I'm missing something.. the ascendency notes say:

1. Heartstopper
2. Escape Artist
3. Soul Drinker
4. Polymath

which I took to be in order given they're numbered. Surely for SC heartstopper is 4th no?
