ABOUT THE BUILD
Basic Info & Bandits
Welcome exiles!
This is the first offical guide I have made since first joining during open beta 2.5 years ago. I have played pretty much every league since 2013. I present to you my Drunken Bladefall build currently in TSC. I wanted something a bit more tanky that could dish out the pain to tackle most/all T13+ End Game Maps. I ended up here after getting a Ranger to 92 in the first few weeks of the new TSC league. This is also my first 95, age(27 days), Played(11.5 days)
________________________________________________________________________________

Mechanics - Self-Cast, Non-Crit, Poison(Bino's + Support Gem), Block(60%/48%), Flask (8 Seconds[Alchemy Nodes + The Retch Belt], Dual Curse(Warlords/Enfeeble). We also use Blood Rage(when safe) , Rally Cry & Vaal Haste.

A mouth full I know. The Drunken part comes from our abuse of Flasks, I'm currently running 2x hp and Taste of hate / Atziri's Promise / Rumi's Concoction. They last for a crazy 8s, along with our 3 Frenzies up from Blood Rage we are zooming around the map with a full bar of buffs 1-2 shotting all groups. The life regen from the bino's keeps us with full hp along with our high leech. I am able to keep the flasks up almost 90%+ of the time in maps no problem. If you enter a dangerous area like in overgrown ruin then pre-pot before you enter the rooms and go to war with the mobs. I will try to have a video to better explain how quick the clear speed is, but I have NEVER played anything this powerful before.

95k+ Dps is a value I use while in maps. Fully potted and buffed running room to room one shotting all mobs, watching the rare's get destroyed from all the poison stack sharing. If you want to be realistic about my damage numbers...

In Hideout 36k / Flasks 55k / Frenzies 75k / Rally Cry + Everything running, 95k+ I've seen up to 110k before I think. (I wont count the 350k+ Echo Shrine)

Awesome work so far! This guide is shaping up very nicely. Cheers and see you in-game.
what do you do with aura? and how do you apply both curses?
I thought cast when damage taken doesnt work with wearcrys. And did you consider Abyssal Cry?
Hi,

Have you updated your passive tree for 2.3?
