Some men just want to watch the world burn.

This build revolves around Brimstone with the Aspect of Lava and Molten Bomb to deal insane damage and melt enemies. When you want to really destroy everything, you can use Apocalypse to finish the job.

Important Notes

  • Prioritize getting all Legendary Nodes before all else. Example: Ritualism
  • Prioritize all Glyphs to level 15 before going higher unless you cannot equip the next Glyph yet.
  • Prioritize all Glyphs to level 50 before going higher on any.

Glyph Leveling Order

  1. Entropy
  2. Hellforge
  3. Occultist
  4. Empowered
  5. Eldritch Sight

Mercenary

How it Plays

  1. Use Sigil of Subversion upon entering an area to begin the ritual from Berú of the Nameless if needed.
  2. Summon Vollach if he's not already summoned.
  3. Nether Step for mobility and Damage Reduction.
  4. Use Hell Fracture towards the group of enemies and walk through it to create multiple Brimstone.
  5. Drop Sigil of Subversion on the main cluster of enemies or the elite.
  6. Use Command Vollach consistently to maintain Overpower stacks and buff with Berú of Horazon's Chains.
  7. Spam Molten Bomb to create Brimstone and explode them into lava pools.
  8. Apocalypse can be used for screen clearing AoE and to melt bosses.
  9. You can evade through enemies with Flickerstep to reduce the Apocalypse cooldown.
  • Dark Prison is used automatically with Runes.

How it Works

This build revolves around enhancing the damage of Brimstones which can be generated from various abilities.

  • Berú of Horazon's Chains offers a huge damage increase, Vulnerable, Execute, Damage Reduction, and consistently max Overpower stacks.
  • We get various benefits from Overpower stacks including a huge bonus by using Banished Lord's Talisman.
  • Berú of the Nameless gives additional damage and Damage Reduction by using Sigil of Subversion.
  • Aspect of Lava makes out Brimstone explode into pools of lava which continuously deal damage to enemies on them.
  • Pyroclastic Aspect makes our Brimstone explosions even bigger.
  • We utilize defensive layering with Maximum Life, Tyrael's Might, and Barrier from Temerity to have great survivability.
