is there anything we can do to not lose crit/stun immunity and endurance/power charges generation on 3.24? i see those become from charms


Those things are gone pretty much. You can get chance for Endurance on kill from Timeless jewel though.

so the build is basically dead? or can we play without it? I mean, dont we need power charges at all?

What's your opinion on the stun immunity? Would it make the build feel a bit worse, etc? It's honestly the only thing I am unsure about.

Stuns can be annoying but are fixable and also they can be our advantage ;)

Don't worry about it. I will make some updates along the way. Build might function even better in some ways. Just don't expect damage levels of Affliction league (like 200-300 mil dps). Those were once a lifetime treat to players.

I'll play it again. :)

To be honest, once I hit around 90m+ DPS with this build everything felt super clean. Everything was dying fast enough. Getting to 220m DPS didn't even feel that different cause everything was dead really fast anyway. I'll be looking to play this again!
Thanks for the guide. I color coded the gems in the notes to be able to see quickly what sockets I need, copy from here if you'd like:

Spoiler
^_x70FF70^_xFFFF77^_xC8C8C8^_7Start with dual claws right from the town, take Molten Strike as reward.
You will update your claws around levels
~lvl 12 take dual Awl's
~lvl 22 Blinder's or Cat's Paws
~lvl 30 Sparkling Claw's
~lvl 46 Gouger or Gut Rippers
~lvl 64 Eye Gouger's
Craft claws with adequate level of elemental Essences. Just get any added elemental damage on it (fire/cold/lightning) while leveling.
Getting into maps use Imperial Claw's.

Guide is made for the league start. If this isn't your first char in the league you can buy gems beforehand and few leveling uniques. Passive tree for leveling you will find in the Leveling PoB with different stages of progression.

Uniques for leveling:
-Tabula Rasa lvl 2

Roughly when you start mapping or earlier if lucky, 5L body armor is needed for Crit Transition.

Ascendancy progression
1) Brutral Fervour
2) Bane of Legends
3) Overwhelm
4) Headsman

To transition to Crit you will have to get 5L chest to add Crit Strikes support. Until that point level the gem in the secondary set. Don't swap to crit before you get 5L.
Respec tree.

How well would you say this build is suited for SSF, missing out on some of the uniques?

Well you can make it to some degree.
I don't know what would be your expectations. I never played ssf so I can't give you more precise answer.
