PTR Notes

  • Splinter of Anguish
  • Crit Chance: 65% Basilisk Charm, 15% 2 Tempers, 35% Anguish, Dex 1%+ = 115% - 50% Locran's = 65%% Crit Chance = 42.5% needed from gear.
  • Attack Speed: Anguish 35%, Ferocity 20%, Wolves 40%, 1 Affix = 100%+
  • Splinter of Sin
  • Black Soulstone (Needs testing in harder content to see if it can be maintained reasonably)

Important Notes (All guide text besides PTR Notes will be updated later)

  • Prioritize Maximum Resolve stacks for Defensive Tempers.
  • Maximum Resolve synergizes with Might of the Ursine and Aspect of Glynn's Anvil.
  • Tibault's Will isn't required, so it could be replaced with a defensive option like Soulbrand.

Important Notes

  • Prickleskin can be changed to Wariness for survivability.

Skill Rotations

  1. Activate Lightning Storm. You can re-activate this when you reach 4 stacks of Ferocity and after Wolves get their Attack Speed buff.
  2. Activate Hurricane for a Movement Speed buff and to Weaken enemies.
  3. Use and maintain Grizzly Rage consistently for armor and damage.
  4. Spam Earth Spike to kill everything.
  • Wolves are entirely passive and give an Attack Speed buff.
  • Cyclone Armor is entirely passive for survivability.
  • Earthen Bulwark is triggered through the Que Rune exclusively, so it does not need to be on the Skill Bar. It gives Barrier, Resolve stacks, and Unstoppable.

Skill Tree

Available2 (0)
Spent69 (12)

Important Notes

  • Earthen Bulwark is used by the Que Rune so it will not be on the Skill Bar.

Paragon Board

mportant Notes

  • Prioritize getting all Legendary Nodes before all else. Example: Constricting Tendrils
  • Prioritize all Glyphs to level 15 before going higher unless you cannot equip the next Glyph yet.
  • Prioritize all Glyphs to level 50 before going higher on any.

Glyph Leveling Order

  1. Spirit
  2. Tectonic
  3. Outmatch
  4. Dominate
  5. Earth and Sky

Mercenaries

Important Notes

  • Rahier can be used for more survivability but Subo is ideal for seeing enemies on the minimap early for effective dashing with Claw.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why am I squishy?

A: Survivability is all about stacking multiple layers of damage mitigation and sustain. You want Maximum Life on every piece of gear because it prevents one shots and your Barrier from Earthen Bulwark scales with Maximum Life. The build has great healing built in, so focus on reducing damage taken by stacking All Elemental Resistances and Armor. The Gems on jewelry are very high value to prevent the worst types of damage. Be sure to make sure you get Damage Reduction items and Aspects as recommended in the guide or alternatives listed below them.

Q: What are some ways I can improve my Spirit issues?

A: Energize & Gift of the Stag Spirit Boons | Spirit Regeneration, Resource Cost Reduction, Resource Generation, and Lucky Hit Chance for Spirit affixes | Tibault's Will & Ring of Starless Skies | Vulpine's Aspect & Balanced Aspect | And many more.

If you have additional questions or think I should add something here, let me know on my Twitch stream or in the Discord.

Changelog

  • Season 15 PTR
  • Fixed the doubled up affixes error that Mobalytics introduced.
  • Season 14
  • Mid-Game and End-Game tabs now.
  • Paragon Boards optimized.
  • General guide improvements such as recommended Glyph leveling order.
  • Fixed Skill Tree mistake and updated to my current tested version for more survivability. No loss, only gains! Debilitating Roar has no Cooldown now.
  • Added details about bugs I discovered while playtesting.
  • Overcharged Aspect replaced Tibault's Will but both are still good options. This change removes the need for Vulnerable in other places and Legendary items are easier to optimize. Changed Runes to compensate.
  • Aspect of Glynn's Anvil removed due to bugged DR.
  • Stat priorities updated.
  • Fractured Runestone removed from default recommendation since Legendary rings are easier to optimize, but a good Fractured Runestone is still BiS.
  • The Basilisk can't be a Charm so swapped with Godslayer Crown.
  • Aspect of the Moonrise added to gloves.
  • Season 13
