There are no specific weapon nodes so any 1h weapon will suffice.



I would like ask one thing, why did u go all the way to that Disemboweling (+% crit chance to melee and some mult), and didnt go to some nodes near the shadow start, those dagger nodes.
(I can see that u took lots of good things while going up to that Disemboweling, but it seems a bit far to me)

To illustrate what am trying to say, here is a link (barely optimized cuz I was just connecting things)

Thanks for ur time sharing the build and answering ppl question.

HF and GL!


yes for versatility as a starting character. Also, for the STR nodes and regen nodes.

The dagger nodes are great but you spend a lot of pints on semi-useful nodes like 3x "6%dmg+8%acc". Points that are better spent on life

I compared your tree to mine and i get 800 more life and about 23% more damage in the OfflineSkillTree app using the same equipment.
So many strikes within one breath.
But only one strike needed, for certain death.

hmm got it. the versatility is something to consider, heavily.

I tried to optimize it a bit. (not final, and y.. the life is going to be missed)

let me ask you a question, when u take those '+% melee phys to one handed weapon', even using DW it counts?

and why put into % life regen (ik it helps a lot when leveling) if u use bino's ?!

thanks again! (leveling this build right now!)

EDIT: look also for this 'Deadly Dilettante' node! one DEX point away, near King of the Hill

Yes they work when dual wielding

Useful to counteract degen from blood rage. I don't degen from br at all.

When i plot a tree, i like to calculate things like dps per node, life per node, crit per node, etc.

So looking at deadly dilettante, which needs 4 nodes, gives

+10 dex
+4% attack speed
+25% crit chance
+24% inc phys

I then look at what 4 nodes can be better spent elsewhere. Usually, 4 nodes can be better spent for 2 jewel slots.

So take the Fencing cluster (which i also didn't take):

4 nodes
+3% attack speed
+12% accuracy
+40% crit chance
+24% inc phys

So for 4 nodes, deadly dilettante is second to fencing and shouldn't be taken.

So many strikes within one breath.
But only one strike needed, for certain death.
hmm i got it! thanks for the heads up!
Thanks again for yet another awesome guide!!!

Is it possible to get a link for your loot filter? - it looks quite nice :)



With regards!

So I got a great deal on a bino, soul taker and 5link daresso today. And I'm going to start this build soon. I'm just wondering.. You say using soul taker made make it so we can utilize 100% mana for an additional aura. But in your gem setup you don't list another. Also doesn't curse on hit linked to HoT use additional reservation?

Curse on hit doesn't have a mana multiplier so it's stays at 25%, no matter how many curses you connect to it.

The extra 25% is used for arctic armour, which gives great physical and fire defence while standing still, and reave is a skill that you spend a lot of time standing still.

But i only use arctic armor on my pure defence setup to tackle higher tier maps, but if clearspeed is needed, i suggest another herald.

A great setup I've used before is:

GBBB
HoT
HoI
CoH
AM

Where both heralds can curse enemies, HoT for close targets and HoI for the offscreen targets outside of HoT range.
So many strikes within one breath.
But only one strike needed, for certain death.
