I noticed, since I like going for beginners builds for ease of play, and since I’ve collected alot of gears with bleeding included, I noticed there’s no beginning builds for bleeding? is it the gear dependent is the reason? or it just suck? BTW thanks for all the builds especially the beginning section, I appreciate it! Keep up the good work!

1207

Main reason is there aren’t that many bleed skills in the game. Even less skills that have substantial bleed worth building around, as opposed to some skill’s “flavour” bleed (looking at you Primal Strike, Forcewave and Bloody Pox). Then even less skills that are cool to level with (transmuted Blade Arc is viable endgame but levelling with 5 sec cooldown melee skill will feel like shit). Add in that some skills just don’t have much budget support (Counter Strike, Vire’s Might) you’ll have our current situation when noone just bothered to make such a build.

I can vouch for only one bleed build that feels decent enough to level - it is the blade spirit build with Scarab Shell. E.g. this thread. There are even some levelling tips down in the comments.

Are the builds that are listed in the beginning of this thread still usable? They are on older patches, but maybe still usable?

1215

Depends on the build in question, but most of them are.

Hello Dragon

After reading your rules I realised I dont have a vid of crucible under 6mins in the topic (only 6:36 naked with extra spawn). So here it is, with 13 +13 + 5 + 12 + 12: 55 tributes spent.
I wanted to only show naked runs but if its really mandatory I’ll also add it in the build description :slightly_smiling_face:.

I see from other entries we’re indeed not listing passive/WPS skills anymore, so I left that out :smiley:
