Important Notes

  • Prioritize Critical Strike Chance early since it will increase DPS, synergize with Critical Strike Damage, and allow for Wolves to activate the Attack Speed bonus more consistently.
  • Be sure to stack enough Resistances, Armor, Maximum Life, and misc Damage early. Flat damage such as Tempers are particularly strong early before many sources are added.

  • Galvanic Aspect (Damage)
  • Envenomed Aspect (Damage)
  • Embattled Aspect (Survivability)
  • Juggernaut's Aspect (Survivability)
  • Aspect of the Orange Herald (Cooldown)

Uniques

  • Thundergod's Blessing (Damage)
  • Wyrdskin (Damage)
  • Fists of Fate (Damage)
  • Dirge of Airidah (Damage & Resources)
  • Tibault's Will (Damage & Resources)
  • Godslayer Crown (Damage & CC)
  • Endurant Faith (Survivability)
  • Soulbrand (Survivability)
  • Gathlen's Birthright (Survivability)
  • Flickerstep (Cooldown)

Mythics

  • Heir of Perdition (Damage)
  • Harlequin Crest (Damage & Survivability)
  • Ring of Starless Skies (Damage & Resources)

  2. Critical Strike Damage Multiplier (Main GA and Masterwork focus)
  3. Attack Speed (No more than 100%)
  4. Vulnerable Damage Multiplier (Masterwork upgrade at least one with GA)
  5. Weapon Damage (Only on weapons)
  6. Willpower (Always prioritize on armor)

  8. Skill Ranks

Defensive

  1. Maximum Life (You want this on all items unless you feel you can remove some and stay alive)
  2. Resistance (Get as much as you can without giving up Willpower or other important affixes)
  3. Armor (Be sure to have at least one affix on items minimum, but get as much as you can)

Important Notes

  • You can use any applicable Unique Charm when you get one but the 5 piece set takes priority until you get a +1 Charm Slot affix on your seal.
  • The highest priority is getting the 2 piece Berú of the Storm Shepherd set.
  • Use any useful stats early such as Movement Speed.
  • You can use Phoba of the Red Wolf Moon as an alternative if you change your skills to Werewolf.

Important Notes

  • Storm Strike can be used for additional DPS and this gives Ferocity which frees up a Spirit Boon.
  • If you have the Great Storm Aspect as recommended then you can change Overload to Energize.
  • Claw can be used for increased mobility.
  • Cyclone Armor is used for passive survivability.
  • Wolves are used for passive Attack Speed.
  • Earthen Bulwark is used automatically with Que Rune. You can use it on the Skill Bar manually until you get the Rune instead of Wolves.

Skill Rotations

  1. Activate Cataclysm and maintain it as much as possible.
  2. Blow Spirit with Lightning Storm.
  3. Use Earth Spike to gain Overpower stacks and Spirit.
  4. Spam Lightning Storm to kill everything.
  5. Use Debilitating Roar to reduce enemy damage consistently.

Paragon Board

Important Notes

  • For complete Paragon Boards, pick an End-Game build from the list at the top of the page.
  • Prioritize getting all Legendary Nodes before all else. Example: Thunderstruck
  • Prioritize all Glyphs to level 25 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. Earth and Sky
  3. Fulminate
  4. Keeper
  5. Dominate

Mercenaries

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.

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

IDK who made the leveling path for the skills, but it is completely out of order. It tries having you activate skill slots at levels you cant even activate them at. Please fix.
