Yes, replied to bunch of guys about that, including the last post in the thread before yours.
Woah! Thank you!
I've jumped up to almost 5200 life and that extra point (and a level) helped me to reach over 170k without flasks and fully charged.
I've also changed the crappy jewel in the bottom slot, but improvements are expensive (what's going on with this league's prices?)

Tried Atziri again. 5 portals left.
She obliterated me.
Its all fine when she's alone and in the heal phase, but when she splits I die.
I think it's a matter of sucking at tactics and the fact that aaaaall this time I hadn't realized my cwdt wasn't working because I had overleveled the gems... Gotta try again today if I manage to get another midnight fragment.

Btw. Finally got a useful enchant for head in the form of 25% damage to LS. what do you think? Should I keep it for now or keep pushing for the dual strike one?


Edit: I have to agree with you with flurry. I've tried it a couple of times levelling and in end game and it works, but it feels... weird

there is a ton of life to get. there are three you should take immediately right underneath vaal pact (4%, 4%, 8%). there are 4% life and evasion nodes by the Ranger start point. there are two jewel sockets that you won't put Might and Influence in...and each jewel socket can have up to 7% life. there is a really awesome node surrounded by all 5% nodes by the scion life wheel. believe me. you could probably have 6500 life if you wanted to sacrifice damage and get more life on gear.

i don't use VP because i like to use blood rage to get frenzy charges to clear trash in maps. i wouldn't want to risk the degen of blood rage with no life regen. plus you're having a tough enough time with a life pool as it is now. so i would use VP and ditch blood rage, or ditch VP and use blood rage (once you get all the regen nodes). keep in mind if you are using life gain on hit claws, you're not leeching anyway.

for more LS focus, i would probably head to Forces of Nature, Primeval Force, Piercing Shots/Pierce, and maybe Fury Bolts. everything else can pretty much stay the same


i have changed some points in the tree ... less dmg and more life and i'm now at 5.269. i dropped VP out and use again bloodrage. i also changed herald of ash with Blasphemy+ Warlords Mark for more survivability.
mapping (t10 actual) is realy fun with this build... alot of action and SPLASH.

But unfortunately you have to be really careful and in case of mistakes, you usually die.
and its frustrating when bosses one shot you .. especially unknown ones. and i hate rare devourer.

I think my jewels are still crap and I must also look for better claws ... but all the good stuff is realy expensive. I try to level further and hope for good dropps :-)
Do you still have tips for me? And which items should I work on first?

thx for your help :)

Hey Say_Ten Absolutely love the build
and the fact you so good with replying!
been trying push it the the absolute extreme,
can you give me what feedback you'd run as your 6th link
as I'm using body armour and what else I could change
to get the most out of it!


thanks very much
OK....so im curious why we are using immortal call, nothing in the build seems to generate endurance charge for us to utilize it. Frenzy from blood rage and power from assassins mark. I dont think ive ever generated an endurance charge.

So the armor we use is basically pointless right? Since you cannot use a chestpiece with BoR. Unless I am missing something?

Could you elaborate on that?
Thanks.
Correct the chest piece is purely cosmetic, but you can still level gems in it.
Not sure where I went wrong. My damage seems to be very low. Level 84, 3800hp, capped resist, but only 82k dual strike and 70k lightning.

Please take a look and advise. Also I just started playing this game less than 3 weeks ago.

You have some funky stuff going on with your gems. Lightning strike and Dual Strike should be in separate pieces of gear. Just review everything after reading the skills section in original post. You'll also get a DPS jump with better claws and investment into claw passive skill tree nodes
