I think my version is the best one in terms of offense/defense balance. You can comfortably farm both Crucible Gladiator 150-170 and Shards 75-76 with it (albeit do expect to die sometimes in Shards) and it’s a good blend between offense and defense. Try it out (be sure to copy it to the letter tho) and decide for yourself.
Answering your question:
-
Amulet: Will of Blade is BiS unless you can get some godly rolled Kaisan and even then I think crit damage alone would be hard to beat. Conduit is good for Hardcore play (I would suggest one with Blade Barrier bonus - very useful if you don’t want to die).
-
Medal: Direwolf is BiS because of the fat resists rolls/monstrous OA/racial to Beasts and flat damage. Crest’s skill is wps like Execution or Markovian Advantage, just a weaker version.
-
Weapon: unless it’s some godly rolled Derm Slicer second Belgo sword is bis. Mostly due to points to Dual Blades (which translates into tonns of flat and some phys res). Second bonus to wps is also nice.
-
Shattered BM is a different build. Definitely better for SR and Hardcore, but slower and less exciting to play.
EDIT: Belt - Blade Breaker is hard to beat. We need +1 to Nighblade everywhere so getting a Nightblade’s belt is a priority.
