Build Overview

TERROR SWARM is BUGGED and turns off randomly so I recommend ULTIMATE VERSION in BUILD VARIANTS!
It has the same Build Base and is VERY EASY to switch to from Endgame Version.

ULTIMATE VERSION BUILD VIDEO HERE

PLEASE CHECK BUILD VARIANTS FOR LEVELING, ENDGAME AND ULTIMATE

It is very EASY to play as you run around damaging enemies from Skills that ORBIT around you = Searing Infestation Terror Swarm and Orbital Blazing Scream supported by Chain Aura Dark Prison.

Lesser Demons Terror Swarm summoning demons will trigger Hellfire Aura Sigil of Chaos for even MORE passive damage which itself is just crazy synergy with skills above. These kills will ALSO proc Cooldown Reduction Dark Prison!

Movement speed bonus from Nether Step and Movement Speed Nether Step is INSANE for Impact Velocity Blazing Scream.

ENDGAME and ULTIMATE versions (see Build Variants) will have Demonform as it doesn't override your skills and provides insane Damage and Damage Reduction boost.

HOW TO GET THE WEAPON - FULL CRAFTING GUIDE HERE

Go to Cube with a White 2H Mace > Upgrade to Unique > Scepter of the Three

Go to Cube with a White 2H Sword > Upgrade to Unique > Anathema of the Primes

THIS TECH IS OP:

Warden Fragment from Vanguard Shard EXTENDS Terror Swarm and Orbital Blazing Scream making them PERMANENT!
We get Demonform from Demonic Grasp Tyrant's Grasp while Orbital Blazing Scream EXTENDS Demonform duration thus creating nearly infinite loop.

IMPORTANT Keywords:

  • Volatility: Randomly empowers Hellfire Skills when you attack with them. Empowered skills deal x50% increased damage on their next cast.
  • Overpower: Increases your Damage by 15%(+) per stack. This effect stacks up to 4 times and each lasts for 4 seconds.

Strengths and Weaknesses

  • Nearly AFK Easy Farm
  • Tanky
  • AoE Damage
  • SPEED Nether Step is cracked - Demonic Smash Rampage later on in ULTIMATE VERSION
  • Terror Swarm bugs out and disables randomly making you stand around doing no damage that is why I added ULTIMATE Version that doesn't rely on this!

Build Variants

This build uses Fallen Rush Command Fallen to generate Wrath to get Overpower stacks from Aspect of Malevolence to proc Cremator's Aspect and our main ability is Tyrant's Grasp spam that becomes a CORE Skill from Anathema of the Primes.

Dark Prison is also triggered passively through runes freeing up a skill slot for the skill above.

We don't need to focus on Cooldown Reduction here as Demonic Grasp Tyrant's Grasp with Warden Fragment makes our Terror Swarm be permanent. (read more further below)

If you don't have Heir of Perdition use a legendary helm with Wrath Regen and Aspect of Diabolical Armor aspect.
For the ring you can run Hellbent Commander Aspect with Resource Generation affix.

Demonform for Abaddon is through Demonic Grasp Tyrant's Grasp and Warden Fragment makes our Terror Swarm also PERMA.

How it Plays

LEVELING

1. Command Fallen - Wrath generator

2. Orbital Blazing Scream - main damage dealer doing damage passively just like 3.

3. Searing Infestation Terror Swarm - same as above and summing lesser demons for triggering Hellfire Aura Sigil of Chaos for even MORE passive damage

4. Chain Aura Dark Prison - this is extremely strong defensive

5. Sigil of Chaos - easy Volatility source (50% damage increase)

6. Nether Step - amazing mobility and SPEED

ENDGAME

1. Tyrant's Grasp - Demonform source to make 3. PERMANENT uptime

2. Orbital Blazing Scream - main damage dealer doing damage passively just like 3.

3. Searing Infestation Terror Swarm - same as above and summing lesser demons for triggering Hellfire Aura Sigil of Chaos for even MORE passive damage

4. Chain Aura Dark Prison - insane defense ability

5. Sigil of Chaos - easy Volatility source (50% damage increase)

6. Nether Step - amazing mobility and SPEED

ULTIMATE VERSION

1. Tyrant's Grasp - Demonform source to make 3. PERMANENT uptime and MAIN Damage Ability

2. Orbital Blazing Scream - passive damage and extends Demonform from 1.

3. Searing Infestation Terror Swarm - pulling enemies in, Vulnerable source and 20% multi damage for 1.

4. Chain Aura Dark Prison - insane defense ability passively triggered from runes

5. Sigil of Chaos - easy Volatility source (50% damage increase) and Abaddon set damage

6. Command Fallen - Wrath generator for Aspect of Malevolence and Cremator's Aspect

7. Demonic Smash Rampage - ridiculous SPAMMABLE mobility with enough Wrath regen

How it Works

ROTATION (ENDGAME)

Pre-buff with Sigil of Chaos > Dark Prison > Terror Swarm > Blazing Scream > Tyrant's Grasp to enter Demonform > hold Blazing Scream which extends Demonform which then extends Swarm and Blazing Scream for infinite loop until the target is dead.
Nether Step for damage reduction on bosses or to avoid AoE. Use it for closing distance and to engage.

ROTATION (ULTIMATE)

Pre-buff with Terror Swarm > Blazing Scream > Demonic Smash Rampage to activate Demonform > Fallen Rush Command Fallen to start generating Wrath for Aspect of Malevolence and Cremator's Aspect > Tyrant's Grasp to kill everything
Use Sigil of Chaos on hard Elites and Bosses.
