Build Variants
This is STRICTLY for Tower Leaderboards/Pits PUSHING.
Yes. You are target locking with the old
Rushing Claw mechanic.
It's basically the same playstyle as my OG Toxic Claw from Season 6 for those who know me. but
Counterattack of the Swarm dealing your damage instead of the old Toxic Skin.
If you don't like the playstyle, then look away.
Survivability Checklist: Armor 20k minimum, Resistances 5k minimum, Max Life 30k minimum.
**Build will receive adjustments depending on recent findings or new bugs discovered as we progress.**
Equipment




Polearm is approximately 11%x stronger than Glaive.
Aspect of Kinetic Suppression is a must on the Amulet. Do not MISS it. You can place it on the boots or pants during progression if you don't have
Kullean Tuning Prism yet.
Masterwork Vulnerable Damage Multiplier on Gloves, Amulet, Rings if you want more damage. NOT Damage Over Time. Why? Damage bucket things; Vuln Dmg Multiplier is the weakest on the pooled-bucket multis.
PRO TIP: Focus on getting a Modifiable Poison Damage Transfiguration on Pants, Boots, and Chest. They provide more DPS increase value per Volatile Dust gamba since these gears contain mostly defensive stats.
Talisman
Seal of the Diamond Mind
Seal of the Golden Epiphany Or a plain Legendary
Seal with +1 Charm Slot can be used as long as it has the correct Affixes.
Greater Affix Gorilla/Eagle Ranks are Priority for the Charms.
Centipede Ranks also works but is not ideal, as it will not give you ranks on
Ravager which manages your Cooldown.
A mix of different Elemental Resistances is preferred as a second stat after Ranks. Other stats are just fine if you don't find yourself having issues with Resistances.
Skills & Rotation
Keep All Skills on Refresh. Win.
Skill Tree
0 (0)Make sure to have
Crushing Blow spec'd on your skill tree together with
Tzic rune equipped to capitalize on 500%x on ALL your damage for 1.5s.
Yul rune makes sure that you're proccing it as much as possible.
Paragon Board
Colossal Glyph DOES NOT work with
Aspect of Infestation.
Fester Glyph is overall better for farming vs
Revenge. Difference comes out on Top End Push during Boss Fight because Fester only works during Stagger.
Mercenaries
Make sure to select Subo's Scorched Earth and Bargaining Chips for more Damage.
Raheir can be swapped depending on your preference, but Raheir's Bastion always saves me from sticky situations.
