Tried Word of Pain for the first time

It cannot be a central part of the build because it’s 1/s ticking aoe skill so it has to suck on bosses.
But of course it can play an important role in clearing trash.


I like some Pierce WoP - Infiltrator with it. Check the crossbow in the builds below

Ulvar’s beginner / SSF build: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/Q2zjKER2

  • but you can see WoP is not the main damage source as there are also
    • Chillspikes
    • Blade Spirits

Crucible optimized build: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/bVAaaYlV

  • not many points in WoP though

Also something with Goredrinker, i.e. this by afanasenkov26

2 x Chillheart to convert WoP to Cold


Chaos WoP with something added to it, there’s a lot of possible builds


Elemental WoP + Obliteration Deceiver by Plasmo:
https://www.grimtools.com/calc/1NXXx0PN


You could make some Vitality WoP using Decree of Malmouth, i.e.
  [1.1.4.2 - 1.1.9.0] Vitality Deceiver. 150-170 5m 30s. SR 80. Crate of Entertainment. Callagadra. Avatar and other bosses


Physical, Aether are also doable
