This will be a community collection / challenge to make end game viable builds using epic sets! Perhaps this initiative could both trigger some nice builds and also provide some feedback about the sets!
Rules
Rule 1: Build must use an entire Epic set, that is not a set with only jewelry and have more than 3 pieces. This means that the following epic-sets are NOT eligible:
The Arcane Tempest - I make exception for this if the granted skill is used as main ability, i.e. not only for stats.
Note: you can use these items of course, but then you have to use another epic set as well, from the list of eligible epic sets below.
Note: I made these rules just to not ”bloat” the compendium with 18 builds using Magelord or Alkamos rings same with the aetherstorm set ring + amulet set.
Rule 2: The build must exists, i.e. no pure theory crafts.
Rule 3: Build needs to be ”playable” current patch. Can have been made in previous patches but with no major gear/skill/performance changes.
Rule 4: Besides using an entire epic set, you can use whatever items you want – GD stash like crazy or make a reasonable build – its up to you
No own thread for build is needed, you can just submit the GT link and the information about what content you can do with the build by writing in this thread Try to write all information in one post, the same post that you post the GT link to. In that way it will be much easier for me to link to it in the compendium
No need to provide video proofs etc, just mention what the build is able to do.
Builds:
(in alphabetical order, excluding “the”)
The Arcane Tempest (exception for these builds was made since granted skill is used as main-ability)

– Spellbinder by: mad_lee
– Druid by: eardianm
I’ve made Flame Keeper build, I played Crucible successfully
with it but I didn’t test it properly (I mean get proper time) because
I was playing very badly then (instead of badly as currently )
Here’s a 1.1.9.0 link with untested new take on it with focus on Static Strike
and Lightning to Fire conversion: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/4ZDPGgkZ
(not sure if it’s better)
If someone test it better in Crucible / SR / makes more up-to-date build,
feel free to swap it out.
both of these are faster on current patches with new items/tweaks. the infiltrator can push sub 5 pretty consistently when shadow strike focused or 5:15-5:25ish when beronath aa. The breaker can maybe push 5:30 at best.
I also made a neat hybrid trickster that was fun/solid. https://www.grimtools.com/calc/pZrdRL32
I never got around to testing this… but Sharpshooter pally with silly GD stashed greens. On paper looks like a monster, but who knows. https://www.grimtools.com/calc/lNkG0DlN
@Valinov what can unseeing gaze trickster and augur sorc do?
I kinda wanted this compendium to be like epic version of dragons compendium, but less strict in format and no “video proof” etc. But at least one sentence what stuff build has achieved is appreciated
trickster is ~5-5:20ish I cant remember the pyran one… its been since right after the augur set was added that I tested that… That was hundreds of builds ago lol
