This build will be running on a Dual Wield set up in order to take advantage of Belligerence and we are running Ramalandi's Magnum Opus alongside Shard of Verathiel

- If you're running Crown of Lucian you may run into Fury Management issues if you don't have the Ring of Starless Skies. Crown of Lucian adds 5 times the normal Fury cost to your Lunging Strike and Ring of Starless Skies cuts that cost in half. If you find yourself running into Fury issues:
- Run a Legendary Helmet with aspects like Hectic Aspect, Undying Aspect, any defensive aspect will do.
- You can also run Tuskhelm of Joritz the Mighty. This is a great option for anything outside of the Pits until you get Heir of Perdition.
- Use Heir of Perdition. This is actually the easiest way to gear the build since it makes it easy to hit your Critical Strike Chance cap at 100 and gives a lot of Lucky Hit.
- You can also use Ugly Bastard Helmet for the Fury generation and Damage Reduction. The damage portion of the Ugly Bastard Helmet is currently bugged and is not working properly.
Offense
- Aspect of Moonrise will will increase your attack speed as you hit with a Basic Skill. After 5 attacks you've capped out your bonus. At 5 stacks you gain bonus damage and movement speed for 10 seconds.
- Hectic Aspect is a key part in making sure you have Wrath of the Berserker active 100% of the time. After 5 attacks with a Basic Skill, you reduce your cooldown timers.
- Aspect of Adaptability when you cast a Basic Skill above 50% Maximum Fury you deal increased damage.

Uniques
Key Build Piece
- Shard of Verathiel gives us a big damage multiplier, with a bunch of other incredibly great stats. It also adds a Fury cost to our Basic Skills allowing us to take advantage of the Ring of Starless Skies.
- Ramaladni's Magnum Opus is an incredibly strong unique if build correctly. It increases your damage by up to .5% per point of Fury you have. The Unique Aspect is the most important part of this weapon, followed by the Maximum Resources. On build that get close to 400 Fury this weapon offers 200% increased damage.
- Crown of Lucian gives us big damage increases, but it will make the cost of your Basic skills increase by 5 times. If you run into Fury issues you can swap for Ugly Bastard Helmet, a regular Legendary with a defensive aspect, or if you have it Heir of Perdition.
- Paingorger's Gauntlets activate when you damage an enemy with a Non-Basic skill. This can be achieved through Wrath of the Berseker. If you cooldown is too long for this to be effective, you can use the Cir + Ceh rune combination to constantly maintain uptime on your Paingorger's Gauntlets buff.
Mythic Uniques
- Shroud of False Death is probably one of the strongest Mythic Uniques in the game as it adds +1 to every single Passive node in your Skill Tree. That means every offensive, defensive and utility node you now gain.
- The Grandfather has a Unique Aspect that doubles your Critical Strike Damage bonus. More importantly for this build it gives very high Maximum Resources. That will help scale your damage from Ramaladi's Magnu Opus. It's a great source of Max Life and the All Stats play a huge role in activating your Paragon Nodes.
Ring of Starless Skies adds damage to all of your abilities after you spend primary resources.
