Build Details

How It Works
Summary

We've tweaked this build to really ramp up the damage output, all thanks to the addition of Hunter's Zenith and Debilitating Roar. With this combo providing a significant defensive boost, we can afford to be a bit more daring with our paragon and gear selections, ultimately resulting in a noticeable increase in damage output.

The reason we're using Tempest Roar is to transform our Storm Claw into a wolf skill. This clever maneuver reduces the cooldown of Debilitating Roar to zero as long as we've taken down at least one enemy with a wolf skill. Moreover, it has the added bonus of allowing Storm Claw to take advantage of the damage boost from different paragon nodes and the hefty 40% shapeshifter damage increase from Hunter's Zenith.

Basic Skills are our main source of damage.

Overcharged is our second source of Damage, very strong for AOE.

To fortify ourselves, we're employing a dual strategy. First, we're taking advantage of the frequent use of Debilitating Roar, which not only hinders our enemies but also bolsters our defenses. Additionally, we're harnessing the power of the "Bolster" boon, which enhances our fortification by 15% for each cast of a defensive skill. This combination ensures that we remain well-protected while dishing out maximum damage.

One fascinating mechanic in our setup is our ability to surpass the attack speed cap. Both the inherent attack speed of our basic skills and the attack speed boost from "Howl" will go beyond the 200% attack speed cap. However, it's important to note that it won't reach the full potential value, but it does give us an advantage in terms of attack speed.
