[1.0.0.9] DW Crazy Chaos Cadence WB [Chaos/More Chaos]

I am gonna be frank, is there another version of items for people who don’t use item crafting tools ?

Is it tomorrow already?

You don’t need to cheat those. You can simply farm them. Just takes some luck and a lot of time.

But this is how a version of this build could look like without too many MI items:

Okay! The guide is now updated with all the changes. Notably, I swapped out both weapons, so our first weapon is Master’s Spellblade of Fury. I took that specific suffix for its attack speed. Abyss was initially suggested for its rr abilities, however, I wouldn’t be able to cap attack speed with that suffix, so Fury it is. Only way I could manage to hit 200%. Second change, I switched my second Bloodlord Blade for Fang of Ch’thon. This gives us innate chaos, adcth and +1 to Occultist skills. It’s ability when it activates, which we have 100% up-time, gives us an additional 33% adcth and -20 chaos resistance. Oh yeah! We socket it with Haunted Steel because we want even MORE innate adcth AND its granted skill gives us 24% adcth… jesus christ talk about never seeing our health bar move! Third change is one of the rings. We switch out General’s Cronley’s Signet of the Untamed for an Imposing Cronley’s Signet of Solael’s Malice because of the +1 Solael’s Witchfire, innate +chaos damage and crazy crazy crazy health boost. Fourth change made is the removal of the 3 points in Consecrated Blade. We take those 3 points and put them in Deadly Momentum to gives us some more Cadence damage. Fifth change made was towards the devotions, because I fucked them up in the initial post. Dropped the useless Kraken, allocated those points into Jackal for the attack speed, and picked up Eel because we needed the blues and it gives us good defensive bonuses.

As a result of these changes, we see a massive increase in reduced resistances for enemies, resulting in quicker kill times. We picked up ~7k sheet dps, an additional 200 chaos damage, dropped about 140ish OA which is totally fine, we’re still at 3100+ lol, DA goes up slightly, as does our health thanks to the new ring. All in all, if you thought the build was good before, these changes bring it to a whole new level of absurdity. Enjoy!

edit: I really need to make a video to showcase this build, any good recommendations for a free recording program?

Nice work.
Replace Haunted steel into Master’s Spellblade for getting more lifesteal from second hand.
For recording you can use OBS program.

thank you!

time to make some videos to showcase this build :smiley:

What about boots, Your Dark Majesty? You switched those fancy Stonehide of Kings snickers for Harvest Footpads (I guess) and didn’t tell your minions about it in your gearing section? How cruel!

Keen eye disciple, very keen. However, those were just a cheap pair of nothings I bought to temporarily wear while my beloved stonehide boots were getting polished, too much blood and guts were staining them red. They were a decent contemporary pair to wear while I played with my other armor and trinkets, but the stonehides are still the best.

Yay! Heavy man-stompers instead of those filthy farmer’s rags for our Chaos Incarnate!

In all honesty, take my sincerest gratitude, mr. Sopranos! Since…like what? B31, I suppose, I dreamt about melee chaos juggernaut (Howdy, WH40k fan here!) and now…oh my, dreams came true! I’m hailing your Dark Intent, mr. Sopranos :cool:

oh, quick question!
Why not Essence of Ch’thon instead of Rifstorm? OA, I know…but there is still plenty, why not more rr? Or is there something to do with “essence’s rr doesn’t stack with X”?

I toyed with the idea of using one essence and one riftstorm on my weapons, and it just boils down to preference. Health and OA are more valuable to me with my current set up. I have exactly 25% crit chance on aldritch with riftstorm on both weapons, as opposed to 23ish without, so it’s more of a neurotic thing for me, I like having exactly 1/4 % to crit, and the extra 400 health is nice. Both are viable augments to use imo!

Is this build hardcore viable? What skills do you use for AoE exactly?

War Cry with Eldritch Fire?
Sigil of Comsuption? Wouldn’t be helpful at least 1 point in Destruction?

Really funny build to read, get a video ready! Fraps is probably still the best recording software you can use, though I’m not sure how easy it is to get a “free” version nowadays.

I have not tested it on hardcore, but i am 100% confident that it will steamroll hardcore with zero worries. Like, I have to actively try if i want to die. The ridiculous amount of adcth sustains you like you wouldnt believe. 20 minutes ago, I did a port run bc i havent brought this character through it yet and i want his sexy ass weapon, I was capable of face tanking aldritch and his 2 goons with very minimal moving around (only moved when they popped their shields)

As for aoe, cadence has a 160 degree arc to it, pretty much everything in a horizontal line in front of the character dies before you even know what you’re attacking. Eldritch fire and flame torrent help with minor aoe. I should, as you suggested, allocate 1 point into Destruction, it wouldn’t hurt at all, it would most certainly help.

Tomorrow afternoon when I have some free time I am gonna make some videos to demonstrate how this character plays so everyone can get a visual sense. It’s a whole lot of fun!

I have a build using the same concept with a bit different gears / Devotions setup. I use Bloodlord’s blade with Demonic + Abyss prefixes and the Master’s Spellblade I got have 30 RR. My DPS is probably only half of yours (due to atk spd of 164% & Chaos dmg mod 13k, I guess?) but I can facetank Fabius without problem. Gonna try Crucible tonight.

Yeah this build is capable of face tanking pretty much most content in the game

Still got shotguned by Mad Queen’s red aura. Can your version survive that?

Face tank her aura? No, thats insta death for most melee chars. Kill her? Yes. Just have to be alert when attacking, get a few hits in, fall back a little when she pops her aura. Rinse and repeat. I will say she is the most annoying boss to face for this character because of that reason. Every other boss in this game though you can go toe to toe without even having to worry about backing off.

You are correct. Just passed Shar’zul with barely a scratch.

Nice build !!!

Klank is glad you are doing well young disciple.

Thank you mortal. I hope you choose to serve me. Become a disciple, join my legion.
