Season 6

Boss Killer

End Game

Build Summary

This is an endgame version of the second highest DPS build in the game, but the singular FASTEST build the Crushing Hand Spiritborn. This build pairs the Banished Lords Talisman with the Rod of Kepeleke to guarantee overpowers every single attack, in tandem with scaling our max HP and other damage modifiers to do trillions of damage per hit. This build requires 245 maximum resource in order to function well. Watch the video for a detailed guide on multiple of the mechanics.

This version is an all arounder. Very fast clear speed without sacrificing too much damage either. With this setup, you'll never have to swap anything based on whatever content you want to do, but if you want to specialize then use the other variations.

Crushing Hand Best core skill Spiritborn has for SPEED (2nd highest dmg) The Hunter For damage multipliers in the skill tree, & additional ferocity stacks Ravager For vigor generation + mobility Armored Hide for 100% block, DR, & maximum resolve Vortex for the big suck Soar for movement & vuln

^ Feel free to swap Vortex or Soar out for Scourge if you want more DPS

Shroud version is more dps

Reaching armor cap / max res is cumbersome with this setup although not needed Feel free to use Yen's Blessing to cap resistances at a dps loss Can swap Dex on any piece to all res / more armor and vice versa Raheir Merc = 15% armor Soothing Spices incense = +10% all res Other incense = 150 armor Can grab more res in paragon board if needed

Only need 56% barrier generation 1 amethyst +1 temper or 2 tempers

Need 560 int to use RCR temper on ring

Build Notes

Gameplay Loop

You have so much CDR that the gameplay loop usually ends up with you just spamming all of your skills on CD. You want to use them as soon as they are available as pretty much every skill gives you a conditional damage increase - but here's an order you can follow

1) Engage with Ravager - always keep it up for the 30% vigor generation 2) Jump in to the mobs with The Hunter 3) Pop Armored Hide for the 100% block 4) Use Soar for movement & vuln. 5) Use Vortex immediately after Scourge to suck all the mobs together

With intricacy, you can use *Soar then The Hunter so you can spam Soar back-to-back multiple times. Check out the video to see an example of that.

How It Works

This build scales our damage out of control by taking advantage of Rod of Kepeleke In tandem with Banished Lords Talisman to immediately expend all of our Vigor everytime we use Crushing Hand granting massively increased damage hits that are always crits and always overpower. This is achieved by having 245 Vigor baseline & 100% resource generation paired with Ring of the Midnight Sun

Scaling our HP further increases our damage with the Viscous Shield Paragon node being bugged beyond belief. Every 12 points of HP increases our damage by roughly 1% if we have a 100% barrier. We get 100% barrier by using the Que rune paired with 50% barrier generation.

Otherwise our damage ramps up through the Aspect of Redirected Force paired with Aspect of Interdiction and getting maximum resolve tempers on gear. The crit damage from Redirected Force continues to scale above 100% block, and maximum resolve stack temper is currently bugged on gear where if you hit the masterwork crits on them they are increased by 50% rather than the typical 25%, allowing you to get up to +13 resolve stacks on a singular item.

Put all of this together paired with some generic damage aspects, we have a build doing in the hundreds of trillions with over 30,000 maximum HP

In-Depth Explanation

FAQ

Commonly asked questions : comment on my youtube video if you have a question and I'll add it to the FAQ.

Why No Tyrael's Might, Harlequin Crest, Tibault's Will, Soulbrand, etc The answer to why we don't use either of these uniques is basically the same - the value of a normal legendary piece is extremely high, with access to maximum life & very strong tempers such as resilient or maximum resolve stacks, the damage value we gain out of normal legendaries is much higher than almost any unique can give us. Tyrael's is good for survivability but unnecessary later. Tibault's is good for temporarily reaching 240 vigor. Harlequin is good defensively but bad offensively. Soulbrand is just straight up a bad item, you'll never need the barrier generation granted from it, you'd be better off using Aspect of Forest Power to temporarily get you to 100% barrier instead.

Why Resilient temper on one piece and Resolve on the other? Just maths out that Resilient is stronger than the Resolve stack temper because more HP = more barrier, and the Viscous Shield paragon node multiplier is super bugged, it continues to scale the more HP you get, and that multiplier double dips with the Jaguar Main Spirit hall, while the crit damage from Redirected Force does not. Don't worry, it's intentional. You want at least 1 resilient, and 1 resolve stack. It's not a big deal if you go 2 resilient, but resilient is definitely stronger than resolve stacks on at least 1 item.

I'm dying, what do I do? If you are ever dying on this build, it is likely a result of your armor and resistances not being capped. Later on you'll have so much raw HP that this becomes unnecessary, but I still have the planner optimized around capping yourself in both of these departments just so you never have to worry about it. There's about 500 ways to cap your armor and resistances. You can get armor/res rolls on every piece of gear, you can swap around your gems, there's armor and res in the paragon board, there's incenses, elixirs, Raheir merc, Yen's Blessing, Tyrael's Might, etc. Dying on this build should be virtually impossible if you make sure to get 1000 armor and your resistances are capped. I intentionally play without them capped as I like doing more damage however that is only shown in the Glass Cannon Variation

Why do we need 245 Vigor You need 245 vigor so that every cast is a guaranteed overpower via Banished Lords Talisman. Banished Lords takes into account the base skill cost, which for Crushing Hand is 30. 245+30 = 275.

How do I get 100% resource generation It's very easy. Have a Ring of the Midnight Sun that's at least a 47% roll, resource generation on one ring, OR 560 intelligence, 15% generation from Vigorous in the skill tree, and Measured Ravager for another 30% Use this calculator here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hzW0p5RSo-uD4CF0XgYtym5kQopqULWP-ziQ-Jz3eWY/edit?gid=0#gid=0

Why do we put skill points into Armored Hide and The Hunter Skill points lowers their cooldown via Prodigy's Tempo & increases the duration of the buff from Armored Hide. We want 100% uptime on the block from Armored Hide for Aspect of Redirected Force
