Speed of light is pretty slow in Cairnverse…
Hi everyone, I would like to share another lightning melee build with you, it’s kinda meme and weapon damage on GT and dps tooltip in game are pretty lame but it works fine in farming range.
Images from the game with perma buffs and deadly momentum buff

GRIMTOOLS 
- What will change in 1.1.9.2?
WPS from medal will be %20 chance so build can save a few points from MA or ZT but nothing else will change.
Gear Explanation
-
Korvaak’s Brand is needed for DW and definitely BiS.
-
2x Stormheart are core of the build, try to get %100 fire>conversion on rolls, chaos one will be supported by helmet aswell.
-
Horns of Korvaak, definitely BiS. Proc is amazing and provides +1 all skills.
-
I used Avenger of Cairn amulet to get some defense, build has low physical resist so you need that +maximum resistances but it can be a Conduit of Warring Whispers with unrelated conversion, like lightning forcewave.
-
Fateweaver Raiment is needed to get more physical resistance, Shroud of Illusion can be better due to AoC points but that one has no phys resist at all.
-
Iron Maiden Shoulders is needed to hardcap Cadence, resistances doesn’t matter there; getting OA and some elemental or lightning damage would be better. I used Tempest since it has both damage and %OA. If you get Tempest/of Attack roll, you may re-spec the cunning points and invest to physique or even spirit.
-
I used 2x Coven Storm Seals(faction ring) for Field Command points and %DA Bonus. More offensive alternative would be Signet of Astral Ruminations but then DA suffers too much, you can remove cunning points and invest into physique and then OA suffers too much
Leggings of Arcane Currents
-
Leggings of Arcane Currents is BiS for Cadence points, phys resist, CC resist and SBoE points.
-
Light’s Defender Gauntlets is BiS. Crimson Claws can be used for extra targets but build needs every drop of damage.
-
Ignaffar Combustion relic is BiS for extra RR and good flat damage.
-
Scales of Beronath is BiS. (Unless you have a double rare Ugdenbog belt that fits perfectly)
PS: Yeah I enabled Discord mutator, it’s much better this way
Devotions: It was quite ordinary Spear and Ultos lightning devotion route at first. Then I decided to utilize Tsunami for fumble/impaired aim and resulted great both offensive and defensively. Binding it to Storm Box provided much needed AoE. Problem was I lost third node of Hourglass which is needed to for slow resistance. At first I used Time-Flux band and Mark of the Traveler on Boots but not having %200 AS annoyed me so I gaved up Ultos proc and didn’t even miss it.
SR 76 Boss Room with bad mutators.
I tried to get resistant mutator along with Grava and Valdaran at 76 boss room but got bored after tenth run. Build is very consistent at 75-76; no so fast but reliable. Valdaran takes too much time with bad mutators, Grava is easier due to high racial damage. Hard physical hitters can cause some problems now and then so can’t guarantee that you won’t die
