FAQ

If you have any questions about this guide feel free to reach out to me whilst live on Twitch, YouTube, Kick or X or contact me offline via my Discord.

How much Resource Generation Do I need?

With the reduction of Resource Generation Sources across the board it has now become more difficult to enable you to activate the Rod of Kepeleke on Every Single Hit which is where our Big Damage comes from.

The Easiest way to achieve this is to use the Ring of the Midnight Sun which escaped the Resource Source Nerfs and can still Restore 50% Resource Spent in the Last 2 Seconds on a Critical Strike. The pairs excellently with the Rod of Kepeleke because this will spend 100% when at Maximum Resource to guarantee a Critical Strike.

This means that we need to achieve 100% Resource Generation on the build along with a Maximum Rolled Ring of the Midnight Sun at 50% to enable a 100% Activation Rate when attacking with the Rod of Kepeleke.

You can obtain the Resource Generation required from various sources including:

    • Intelligence
    • Resource Generation Affixes
    • Resource Generation Tempers
    • Vigor Generation Ravager

How Much Attack Speed Do I Need?

Aim for 100% Attack Speed from the following sources:

    • Ferocity
    • Equipment Affixes
    • Offensive Temper Affixes
    • Paragon Nodes
    • Varyana Primary Mercenary (if you're struggling)
