is this build also possible as a slayer? i mean, instant life leech, overleech, permanently increased dps because we are leeching all the time

so you could also play with 2 swords for example. since i got 2 350pdps swords, i would rather play with them instead of using claws and spend currency for them.

Thanks for the great guide. Question about enchanting gloves. If I have great gloves that have implicit 19% increased melee damage is it worth trying to get the enchantment for commandment of fury? Which will provide more dps?

Ok, i've been reading for like 2 hours and i've taken some notes to improve.

I've been playing for a month. I'm lvl 94, already finished my atlas and have done almost every end game content by myself(except uber elder). Now i'm trying to craft and get currency to afford my next char (Aurabot) and to do this i want to run t16 maps with sextants, but i find it really, really hard to do with my build.

Can anyone check my profile, and tell me what i need to change? I know i need to change the enchant on my helm, and maybe get the gloves with the original implicit. I need to learn to switch flasks when needed. but i'm open to every advice you want to give me.

Oh, i've heard that i need to get steel rings too, but i'd be missing sockets.

Anyways, HELP!

Hi,

I've just started to mapping. Low lvl maps seems like butter!

Can you check my char and tell me if there's some gear or skills gems I could improve/change?

I've been following the guide, I know that I have to get better rare claws, with more dps, a better viridian jewell with 15%, etc... but there's any other advice you can give me?

for skills/sockets, i would only use herald of purity. this means you can run steel rings with the right mods if you have the currency.

for lightning strike, i feel you are seriously missing out if you don't have pierce and iddeally you would also have ancestral call on it. even if you have to use the skill gems for a minute just to try it out, do that. then you can work on getting the helm enchant and possibly an elder claw with ancestral call (see my character).

also for lightning strike (or whatever you want your secondary attack to be), you could choose to support it differently now that you can get power charges from your ascendancy. the CoH setup is nice because it's way more effective at generating power charges with assassin's mark, the damage is still pretty good and you get life and mana on kill, which is actually pretty nice defensively. keep in mind though, that unless you do something else with the skill tree or get different unique items, you can only have one curse active. so you might want to just get more damage (crit multi, melee physical, etc) out of lightning strike.

divine life flask has highest amount recovered so if you are going instant, use a divine. also i like half instant, half fast because of the buffs to flasks we have and also the quick life regen, it's useful to benefit from the larger amount of life regained and the duration of anti-freeze (vs just instantly and that's it).

get a 15% might and influence, and possibly one that's corrupted with a good mod
