[Patch 3.1] Bleed-based Slayer with maxed Block/Spell Block and 6k HP
Before anything else, I would really like to thank Ghazzy for inspiring me to make a bleed Slayer. I do not know him personally but his build and out-of-the-box thinking with Bleed and Ascendancy really got me to make my own version of a bleed Slayer.
I would like to preface that this is not a starter build; on the contrary, it requires quite a lot of currency to invest. However, this is my first build and it has been letting me do most endgame content from Uber Izaro to Uber Atziri quite properly albeit getting 1-4 deaths per Alluring Abyss runs. I have not tested this build against Shaper as I have not fought him yet but I hope to see how well this build goes up against him someday. For a pro-con list of things, here it is: Pros: Slayer ascendancy - Culling 20%, Overleech 78% Block and Spell Block Chance Bleed-based which makes it quite easy for beginners to use, given that they have the currency to invest into the build Cons: Quite costly requiring 5 Reckless Defence Jewels, one 5-6 link Belly, and a good rolled rare Sword/Axe or my preferred Varunastra Low HP capping at 6k at level 100 ; this means around 5.5k at level 95. Bleed damage is not as high as Ghazzy's Atziri Bleed Vidoes (to come "soon" as my upload speed is very slow): Uber Atziri part 1 - Floors 1 to 4 Uber Atziri part 2 - Floor 5 Total death count of 4 I think. My best record is 1 death from lasers from Floor 2 but I don't have any hard proof so I'm averaging 2-3 deaths per Uber Atziri. I have to defend myself that I only started Uber Atziri two days ago so I suppose I am making forward progress. Uber Izaro - Uber Izaro is not really a problem for bleed builds. Shaper - no Shaper video yet since I have not yet unlocked the fight.
Core Uniques
The core uniques of this build are: Belly of the Beast - 5-6L The Anvil Amulet for the Block Chance and Increased Cap Block Chance 5x Reckless Defence Cobalt Jewels Varunastra is somewhat optional especially depending on your preferred weapon types. All that is important is you manage to get 100% bleed chance on attacks and Varunastra has this easier than single type weapons. Haemophilia Gloves is optional but it does give 25% more Bleed Chance so it is a good option if you have not capped your bleed chance yet. I personally prefer this over a rare just because of the explosions helping clear corpses. Other than this, rare gloves would be better overall except for Bleed DPS.
Other Items
All the other items - rings, gloves, boots, belts, and Abyss Jewels if you are using any would be to fit around mostly for your resistances.
Gem Links
5-Links = Sunder, Chance to Bleed, Deadly Ailments, Brutality, Melee Physical Damage 6-Links would have an added Maim or Damage of Full Life although I personally prefer Maim 3-Links will be: Ancestral Protector - Blood Magic - Blood Rage Shield Charge - Blood Magic - Faster Attacks 4-links will be: CWDT - Increased Duration - Immortal Call - Vaal Grace Arctic Armour - Riposte - Haste - Summon Lightning Golem Leap Slam - Blood Magic - Faster Attacks - Fortify You can swap around the auras and golems depending on your needs but I prefer stacking attack speed due to animation locks actually being lethal against bosses such as Uber Atziri.
Pantheon
Arakaali for regen after Blood Rage but I personally use Solaris due to the massive defense buffs she gives especially the ability to dodge area damage and chance to not be inflicted by Frozen. Lunaris is also a good option but the build do not have any hard time against masses of enemies. Yugul as a minor god for reflect although I admit I have not tested anyone else.
Path of Building
For a more comprehensive list of the items I am using as well as my skill trees, feel free to load my character up through Path of Building or view him here through the forums. Here are my PoB links for both level 91 and level 100 trees. Level 91 Level 100 with a few item adjustments Anyway, I would like to end that this is an actual personal build, made for my own satisfaction and not competitive things or speed farming, etc. so it is very unlikely to be very competitive or meta. However, if anyone is interested or has tried this kind of build before, please leave your thoughts on how to improve the build as I am open to making it better.
