Pyrocon's HC Ranger Build - Updated for 9.8
with only 6charges and no passive bonuses on charges, I feel like most frenzy based builds are hurting badly since patch, I can barely sustain blood rage anymore without pot spamming (16hp on hit, 2% dmg to life steal, 2hp on kill) and without the movespeed bonus hexproof + movespeed monsters can be very dangerous
Winner of the First Ever Cut-Throat Server Test, and Winner of the First Ever Cut-Throat League Event!

I'm only level 38 but looks like we have similar + life ( 17 on hit, 2% leech, 6 on kill, and 707 life regen per minute)
I have not put in any points yet, the jury is still out... |

Great info! Thanks for posting. If at all possible, I would love to see a new skill tree snapshot reflecting the new patch changes. I am going to re-roll my ranger on HC and will be using these recommendations.

" Stopped reading right there, which is a shame cause its probably a useful post. But I hate hardcore elitists... they are so tiresome. Some of us have better things to do than waste weeks of work cause we hit a lag spike or the client froze. |

" That's a bit of a knee jerk reaction imo. Why cut off your nose to spite your face? The fact that the OP prefers HC does not negate the valuable information he took the time and effort to impart. In no way did the OP state everyone had to go HC, just that he preferred it and the reasons why. I saw little elitism in his post, rather, a lot of very good info that I am using for both Default and HC league. However, since the latest patch I truly do hope this thread gets updated info. Just my 2 cents. |

" This isn't D2, you can still continue your character on Default lol. It is a "Badge of Honor" or something to be proud of by seeing how high you can get. The thrill of the impact of my mistakes makes it more fun while also knowing in the back of my head all my work won't go to waste. |

How about instead of side tracking on a pointless debate that has been done a million times over with every game that has ever offered a hardcore option we go back to theory crafting about changes the build needs to stay functional and competitive in a post 0.9.7 world.

" Agreed, his build wasn't special before 0.9.7, and sure isn't after. I also found it humorous that he died a few days after posting this "guide to being as awesome as me" in 0.9.6 |

I'm using this build modified for 0.9.7 and at level 56. I hit Chaos and my DPS is on par for the mobs, I cleared half the zone solo. I met up with 2 different "immune to curse" mobs with "run speed" and that stopped me right there. I have 32% run speed but once they found me (I kept running them away so they'd lose me) all I could do was run, no time to drop poison arrows on them.
I got just under 2k DPS with Frenzy-6 charges going with Blood Rage Here is my build:(dropped Iron Refrexes)

I tried it without iron reflexes and honestly I nearly shat my pants when I failed to dodge 2 quick attacks in a row and was at like 5% hp. I rather take the hit knowing I got 70% mitigation in effect than roll the dice and pray that I dodge it.
