[1.1.9.8] THIS WARLORD IS BANANAS! 4:20 Crucible Gladiator 150-170, Celestials, SR 90 easy one button endgame destroyer Physical gunner Warlord

You could put Blind Fury on Guardians potentially.

There is nothing to see, it’s been the first thing that was tested by me and it was a worse build for sure. Casting War Cry with 130% casting speed especially when swarmed can really go south and then interrupting this fat AA flow for that is just not worth it. I tried it. You can try it yourself too, if you don’t believe me.

EDIT: Forgot to mention (again) that War Cry requires Warborn helmet which ruins the whole item setup which is built in a way that all wps are boosted by additional weapon damage mod and capped and then Rebuke is also capped.

That is true and viable, but the low speed of them annoys me too much to use blind fury here. But again this could certainly work out.

Is there any easy way to lvl up that build?

Look for Warlord leveling guide on this forum.

1.2.0.3 Update!

Decided to update this gunslinger with more realistic green items (apparently “Vampiric” doesn’t drop anymore at high levels or like drops once in a year) and more tanky devotions because game got harder.

Find the updated grimtools in the op. Here is the video with current build’s performance.

Hey, interesting question, I never really thought about it, because I don’t test builds in Main Campaign (assuming that if it can farm SR 75-76 or Crucible Gladiator 150-170 it should easily dispose of Main Campaign challenges). Apparently, reflect damage is a problem there (because it’s nerfed in SR/Crucible).

So besides having maxed out Rebuke for 35% reflect reduction other sources of reflect reduction are a bit scarce. Like there one on Owl, but we really need cc-res from Throne. Titan Plating doesn’t fit the build resists wise, using Sigil of the Bear King would be a huge dps loss, so the only way of doing it with minimal dps loss would be taking Serenity.

Or just avoid Steps of Torment with this particular build if reflect is so nasty there.

I am fairly new to this game and am having difficulty recreating the devotion path. Apparently I need very precise directions, similar to the underlying build - for example, Crossroads Red, add “whatever” devotion, remove Crossroads Red, etc. Otherwise, I am enjoying this build. Thanks for all your efforts.

Oh, SSC’s comment brought this build to my attention. And this looks a whole lot like the 2-3-button fire gunslinger purifier, without the need for standing in the inquisitors seal! (which annoys me more than it should)

May be something I try leveling on the side.

This is how I made it last time but didn’t update the guide because wasn’t excited about the build anymore:

It can be sometimes confusing, but beginner guides do good job explaining it I think.

That doesn’t seem to be the right build link :grin:

general approach to devos is work your way inside out
start filling in all the builds tier 1 devos after unlocking crossroads, then you fill in tier 2s, if you can’t fill in/access all a build’s tier2 devos you use a temporary filler devo of the other tier1s providing that colours. Then you fill in the tier2s, remove the filler devos (and potential excess crossroads remaining), finally filling in tier3s.
That way a devo route will always be possible to complete

*keep in mind there is a difference in doing this/ being able to complete a devo map, vs unlocking them in a “semi-optimal” order during levelling, because end builds usually don’t have devo setups/orders based on levelling efficiency.

Following your approach, I finally figured it out, working from the inside out. Probably not the most elegant solution (add this, remove that, etc.) but I got all the devotions and so happy about it. Thanks for the advice.
