How much Resource Generation Do I need?
With the introduction of Season 11 and the reduction of Resource Generation Sources across the board it has now become very 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 Generation 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 Tempers
Vigorous
Measured Ravager
Shroud of False Death
Melted Heart of Selig
How Much Attack Speed Do I Need?
You will want as much Attack Speed as possible since the faster you attack, the more often your
Rod of Kepeleke will invoke the
Poc Rune which in turn will activate the
Qax Rune more often.
Aim for 100% Attack Speed on Equipment, Aspects, Paragon, Mercenaries and Elixirs.
You can only attain Attack Speed in Attack Speed Bucket 2 via Ferocity and
Adaptive Stances if using a
Jaguar Skill so we prioritise Ferocity since we are using a
Gorilla Skill.
We achieve this by stacking Ferocity through the use of the
Jaguar Secondary Spirit Hall.
Why Use Adaptive Stances Over Prodigy's Tempo In Mythic Variant?
For ultra Pit Pushing
Adaptive Stances grants 30% Damage Reduction and +100% Core Stats granting us much needed Damage but also Damage Reduction.
For you to be able to swap from
Prodigy's Tempo to
Adaptive Stances you will want to gain Cooldown Reduction in other places on your gear to ensure
The Protector can be case frequently enough as well as the rest of your defensive skills.
Note: If you don't have much Cooldown Reduction then you should use
Prodigy's Tempo until you do.
