Daresso's Defiance



I want to do a build around this, any ideas?
ign: JIBBITTYTWO
I would suggest a melee attack speed build with endurance charge on melee stun. Probably Duelist. Grab Unwavering Stance so you get the onslaught procs much more often. Im almost positive Dodge and Evade are different, so you could grab acrobatics if you wanted or run Darkray Vectors to get more dodge chance through frenzy charges. Maybe a frenzy facebreaker build?

Pretty Rough tree but that's what I would probably do. I only got one endurance charge on tree cause you're gunna be getting and losing them so fast that it won't matter what your max is. For bandits I would probably do oak, none/oak, and kraitlyn. Im not sure if 18% increased phys is worth it, but I'd say its the easier way to go. Your dps would probably be pretty good with 7 frenzy charges up on facebreaker frenzy. They scale your damage like you would not believe. Especially on a quality frenzy.

This is just what I have in mind when I see the chest. If you got it 5l I would go Frenzy, Multistrike, Melee Splash, Melee Phys and Endurance Charge on melee stun. For a curse I would use Enfeeble or Vulnerability. Probably Enfeeble for extra survivability. For gear, resists and phys are everything. Facebreakers, Defiance, Abyssus, Darkray Vectors(OPTIONAL, could skip and go for better boots with life/res which is much safer). The rest is on jewelry. Focus on good res and phys, as well as life if possible. High phys isn't as important as res. Life leech on jewelry is very good. Life is always nice. Go for prismatic, coral or res base imo. Your offhand would be a shield. Preferably with life and good res. You could go with Daresso's Courage, but I would say just stick with a rare with as high res, life, ev/armor as possible. Block Chance is whatever. You'll probably only run one aura to be safe. A 60% one like Hatred, Grace, Haste, Determination would be OKAY(Hatred/haste/grace would probably be your best bet) or a 40% one for more survivability such as purity of elements or vitality. With Mortal Conviction and that 5% reduced a 40% with reduced mana is 23% I think and a 60% is 35%. With a high level reduced mana you could get it pretty low.

If you managed to get that 6l'd or if you bought one I would do the same gem setup with a life leech/faster attacks/added fire. Which ever you prefer. A quality life leech is always great and a quality frenzy is awesome.

Sorry for the wall of text. This was really fun.

Edit:fixed gem setup cuz I forgot endu on melee stun lol. Silly me.

If you remember this thread, tell me how its going. I forgot to mention that your belt will probably be a meginords girdle, since thats quite a bit of dps. At low levels combining it with a foxshade and a bit of decent phys jewelry makes you godlike. I'd rush blood magic as fast as possible and then head for all the health, by merc you should be heading up for the frenzy charges. I updated the build a bit to get the last frenzy charge on the tree so you should probably just skip the darkray vectors and go for some all res/movespeed/life boots. Unless you really want the dodge from the darkrays and 8 frenzy charges.

I also removed the 8% effect of auras because it isnt really doing much for you when you have a percentage aura like haste/hatred. Just seems like a point wasted.


I use it on my Aegis build, simply because Aegis lets me have near constant uptime on Onslaught with zero investment in Endurance charges, so long as there are monsters around that is.

Also, I just happened to find it while I was MFing for funds to make this character to begin with.... so that was convenient.

Edit: I don't usually use Glacial Hammer, I use IB. Doing an ele reflect map though (IB will kill me).

I dont see how unwavering stance makes onslaught proc more often?
cause you'll get hit 100%. with IR only you have a 5% chance to evade even without any evasion.
