Build Update video from patch 1.1.8.1:
first tries vs:
Gladiator Crucible of the Dead 4 runs, 7min 25 sec average:
- 100-170 first run (150-170 in 7 min 27 sec)
- 150-170 #2 in 7 min 12 sec
- 150-170 #3 in 7 min 47 sec
- 150-170 #4 in 7 min 15 sec
Remember this is HC, I suck at Crucible and I didn’t get GG mutators on those four runs.
SPEEDLEVELING
Devotions & Gear
Some quick words about devotions:
My setup is very defensive atm. Feel free to use Ulzaad & Toad instead of Throne & Spider or try to fit in Assassin. Points in Targo can also be taken out.
About shoulders:
Obviously my affixes are not GG at all, so feel free to use whatever suits your build or use what spanks/plasmo use in their setup.
Feedback & Final Words
Build is not as strong as it used to be on 1.1.5.1 (when it was honestly too OP). It got the obvious nerfhammer in patch 1.1.6 and was kinda meh for quite some time. However the 1.1.8 changes to Nightblade and Soldier have made this build a bit better again both defensively and offensively. On 1.1.9 the build is pretty much unchanged.
Have fun slicing your enemies into little pieces! Any kind of feedback is apprechiated and check out my other builds in my HC build collection!
Special Thanks
To @sir_spanksalot for a very inspiring conversation about this build back in patch 1.1.5.1.
