Hello,
again this build is real fun to play but currently im wondering how to upgrade the weapon. Since the multimod nerf im not sure if crafting them myself is worth it or i better buy one from the market. I would prefer to craft myself but i assume that i need 2*t1 mods to make it worthy in any way.

I'm wondering that myself, there is like 0 awesome claws for sale unless you have 10-25 exalts.

Shaper's Touch are cheapers right now. Do you recommend them or tombfist with jewel?

Any idea how to get Maim, if we change Tombfist?

@up oil crafting and Dismembering, this is first what comes to my mind ;) On tree it costs 8 skill points to go there from nearest location. Seems a waste.

@Fiver what do you think about Innervate as replacement of rage? As I checked some variants in PoB it grants huge dps bonus +- as big as maxed stack rage.
In this case we don't need to worry about maintaining rage stacks, becouse we almost allways inflict shock (with 10+ aps and 20% chance to shock) shock itself grants huge dps bonus. On clearing we have innervation buf which gives lightning dmg. Dmg is small, but scales with ours ele dmg increase and res penetration (ie. on weapon where ele pen is not specified to cold only).

Right now I'm testing it, and I have to admit, that I'm enjoying this setup. Ofc we lose berserk, but as burst we can use ie. vaal haste.

Having a bit of trouble progressing - feel squishy with not much damage bossing-wise.

Any pointers for improvement?

I'll try to help you guys that have written in the thread after stream. You are of course welcome to ask me on stream as well. Won't be able to help you right now though.

Do you recommend this build this league as a starter build? Many items seems to be way more expensive now.

I'm up to 79 with it and have spent less than 100c, most of that in the last few levels. I picked it as a starter because it's very cheap from the beginning and the guide is very comprehensive.

Speaking of which, thanks for all the replies Fiver. I'll be changing around my build tonight based on your responses.

I'm also interested in this build but kind of nervous as to how it will preform as a league starter with items being so much more difficult to get.

Last pastebin link died.

My character feels like it's struggling pretty hard hp wise and single target wise.

Hello Fiver

I invested in expensive shaper gloves, mark of the elder and a assassins mark ring but my DPS is not much higher than yours? What am I missing?
