I have had that little pet project build going ever since i saw the lightning forcewave modifier on the soldier conduit, and thanks to the recent adition of the new wight lord’s helm MI, it went from bad to now currently thriving in ultimate, and very close to be pretty good on ascendant, only lacking a bit of damage. It genuinly only need one or maybe two tiems with a good “dedicated” skill modifier to become another ascendant viable build.
So if could maybe pwetty please get something maybe in a future change or maybe with the next batch of awakened items it would be amazing 
also here’s that rough gem of a build Warder, Level 100 (GD 1.3.0.0) - Grim Dawn Build Calculator
