My other build guide




Introduction
In 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur League, melee playstyle got buffed and Rage mechanic has been revamped to be more obtainable and sustainable. I figured it is a good time to attempt a rage stacking melee build, it turns out to be good all rounder in both mapping/bossing, offensive and defensive, that I am happy to share, enjoy the build!

Build Thought
Spoiler

I wanted to make a rage stacking melee build and found this unpopular unique sword Rigwald's Command pretty interesting to make a build with and decided to make a build around it.


Why Berserker? Why scale both hit and bleed, and Crimson Dance?
Spoiler

Berserker is a pretty obvious ascendancy choice, as it has rage related nodes, they provide additional 1% attack speed per rage and increase rage effect by 50%. The rage effect will apply on the all the extra bonuses as well.

Combined all the rage bonuses and Rigwald's Command, for every rage we stack, we will get
i) 1.5% more attack damage
ii) 1.5% increase attack spped
iii) 3% Dot Multi for bleed while wielding an Axe

This build stack up to 58 rage, which is 87% more attack damage, 87% increase attack speed and 174% dot mult for bleed from rage alone.

The make use of all the bonuses we get, scaling both hit and bleed will be the way to go. I also decided to go with Crimson Dance because it scale very well with attack speed.
