FOLLOW THE GUIDES LINKED BELOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THE CONCEPT[/b]
So with the popularity of Shadow Strike builds I felt that another movement skill also needed to be brought in the lime-light - Blitz.
While not incredibly broken like Shadow Strike (only Cold version is broken), a pure Blitz based build can be pretty fun to play with. What’s more awesome than knocking down your enemies and killing them when they are down. :rolleyes:
This is the updated Level 100 GrimTools link. Please refer to this from now on, the rest of the guide will get updated at some later point
-Blitz is no longer the sole damage source but I didn’t want to break the build’s theme so despite loosing that jusicy 20%+ CDR you still are Blitzing atleast twice thanks to Time Dilation
-Cadence is now our main damage source when Blitz and TD are on CD.
-You can still follow the old concept but I felt it’d make all that juicy attack speed on Reckless Power go to waste
Credits to SuperFluff since I got inspired by his Blademaster to use Deadly Momentum as a temporary buff, JoV for improving my views on Battlemage Melee few months ago and to Drizzto for recommending me Logitech
The build isn’t the fastest of killers but you’re pretty tanky so you can faceroll almost anything
Mind you this is a pure Blitz build and while it’s possible to take Cadence but it ruins the theme of the build itself
I went with Aether solely cause of Mindwarp proc for almost 100% conversion (except the 15% we lose due to Star Pact)
Unless and until they changed the conversion value build should be sitting at almost 100% conversion
This time I am not interested in updating to the new patch (atm), not cause I’m mad at the changes. In fact I very much like the buffs. Beronath especially is intriguing. But quite frankly I am more interested in the expansion for new lore, monsters, dungeons, factions, “repair/rescue” quests
Not only that this effectively makes Aether based Witchblade suck donkey balls. While I understood in the past they nerfed stuff what they percieved to be OP (whether it was or not isn’t something that needs to be discussed here)
But this decision is really weird
Btw, thanks Norzan for letting me know they changed the proc
I have started the process of updating my guides. The Grimtool link for the updated version has been added
Please notify me if any of the links is broken in any way
For now it’s only the GrimTool Links. I don’t have too much time at the moment but will update the write-up at some point. I have around 20+ other build guides to tend to so I am sure you guys can understand

Changed around a bit for 100% block recovery reduction. On switch I put a god-send MI shield with even more CDR than WotL which can reach 100% reduction without the myrmidon or Shieldmaiden.
I hope that set is spread out through several bosses, otherwise farming a Kreeg V2 would be even more painful than the Aldritch decree.
me and some of my friends started play this game and i really like this blitz build…
i was wondering what skills did you tie the devotion skills too… i notice you got to time dilation, spear of heaven, and arcane bomb but it isn’t link to any skills…
and with this guide i see what my end game build is like but what stats should i aim for in my gears while trying to get those end game equipment…
any help for beginners for this guide would be much appreciated. Thx!
