Hello, this Drain Essence Death Knight (using retaliation for damaging ) is very fast build able to take all content but it’s very gear demanding too. Probably going to be nerfed to the ground next patch like all my other retals and combining it with “rework” of SR it will not be updated probably. Treat it like showcase more than a guide.

It’s just stacking casting speed + OA + retaliation and tanykness to survive everything. Gameplay is pretty simple, hold right click and cast other skills from time to time.
Performance
Crucible 4:21 (4:15 buff time) - from my tests and other scores it’s possible to grind somehow way to sub4 with buff time. In this run first round was pretty badly, my best one so far was finishing wave 160 with 1:4x.
SR 110
Crucible naked + extra spawn 5:30
Callagadra 1:27
Ravager 1:18
Mogdrogen - extremaly annyoing due to his stun every attack, I couldn’t stay in meele range next round because simply I couldn’t use drain essence, was stuned over and over again during starting animation. Not hard boss altough, just impossible to speedrun with this build
Crate
SR 80 all bosses pulled
