For a melee build:

Are there limits (beyond sockets available) to how many CWDT gems can be used?
How do CWDT and CoH differ in utility? COH seems to be used less (or at least it is talked about less). Is there a reason for that?

well coh is less common because you simply need 2 more gem slot


so CWDT + COH + Any Spell ( mostly BV or tempest shild ) + Curse, but you gain a max lvled Curse + the buff via COH

without the COH


CWDT + low lvl Curse + 2x Open gems, so you can link it in your Weapons/Shild and put a golem in it ( for example )





on topic


HoI + Onsluaght + Innervate + Enlighten
VPS + Ice Bite + DMG Support + DMG Support ( or chain if you dmg is high enough ) so you get free power charge / frenzy charge

free move speed + massiv dmg buffs while mapping and with Vaal breach even in Boss fights ^^

That doesn't actually do anything. There's no active skill in that setup.

(Moreover, Spells can't inflict Bleeding, and Cast when Damage Taken only allows you to trigger Spells and Casts.)

Been messing around with a setup I've liked so far.

Herald of Thundering Ice
Herald of Thunder - Added Cold Damage Support - Ice Bite Support - Elemental Proliferation Support

Works better on crit builds obviously, but the Elemental Proliferation helps if your crit isn't the highest. The occasionally crit will still trigger the Herald of Thunder, with the Prolif adding straight chances for elemental ailments. Been nice for keeping up frenzy charges.

I think I'd do this one backward, if the build can support it...

Herald of Ice + Added Lit Dmg + Ice Bite + Innervate (since it's generally stronger than Prolif).

Shouldn't it read, "Damage Taken When Cats?"

lol

Defensive setup (very usefull) :

Ancestral warchief > blind > i'm stupid > faster attack

Excellent Mix defensive/offensive setup (for physical build) :

Ancestral warchief > blind > i'm stupid > maim
