[3.0][1M+ DPS][Budget] The Head Chopper | Cleave Berserker (DEATHLESS Shaper/Guardians)


Hello ladies and gents, I'm HeadCrush, and today I wanted to share a build I've been trying out for awhile. If you enjoy facetanking bosses and clear the entire screen in a blink of an eye while also dealing tons of single target damage with minimal gear, then this build might be for you.


Changelog
Spoiler
-Added Blood Rage.



Pros and Cons
Spoiler

Pros:
-Efficient League starter.
-Can do all bosses deathless (haven't tried uber Atziri yet).
-Can facetank most bosses.
-1M+ dps using budget gear(my gear is worth around 100-150c).
-Scales very well with investment.
-Fun to play.
-Very good clearspeed.
-Alot of mobility with Whirling Blades.
-SSF viable.

Cons:
-Vaal pact isn't the best for uber lab farming.
-Only 4 jewel slots, 1 of which is used for our Overwhelming Odds jewel.
-No leech maps are out of the question.
-Physical reflect can be painful without Yugul.



Leveling
Spoiler
Use the typical marauder leveling method,Ground Slam then Sunder all the way. you can level up using cleave but since the radius is so small at lower levels, i wouldn't recommend it.



Bandits
Spoiler
Kill all for 2 passive points.



Required Uniques
Spoiler
There are no required uniques, but Scaeva can be a very good budget sword when used in main hand.I highly recommend picking up Kaom's Roots for the stun immunity and the huge amount of life it gives. You will most likely be using Whirling blades to move around anyways.The Shaper's touch is also quite nice since it gives life, 50% inc. melee damage and alot of accuracy.




Ascendancy
Spoiler
Pain Reaver->Cloaked in Savagery->Crave the Slaugther->Aspect of Carnage



Passive Tree (level 92)


Path Of Building


Pantheon
Spoiler
Major god = Lunaris/Solaris, minor god = yugul



Jewels
Spoiler
1x Overwhelming Odds (cleave jewel), %life + %physdmg + %physdmg/%atkspeed



Current Gear/Gem Links
Spoiler



Possible gear upgrades to scale up the build even more
Spoiler
2x steel rings, 350+ pDps sword to replace Scaeva, Belly of the Beast, Sin's Rebirth or Taste of Hate

big reserves
@chulipstop Indeed, looking at it now, it's completely overkill, 1 or 2 would've been fine XD.

@HeadCrush do you think this build is suitable for the first time hc playing?
@gosupercreep Totally. The leveling is smooth and very safe and youll be able to survive the end game no problem :).

Hey HeadCrush, it looks interesting, when would you transition from leveling gems/playstyle to the actual build ? Any link required before making the switch ?

Thanks in advance !
