Build Overview

Lazy Exile Hollow Palm Alt Leveling Guide for Warrior

0.4 Change

  • Alt Leveling setup is BUFF with the Hollow Palm changes
  • Oisín's Oath added (making mana much more managable)

Summary

This build is all about speed alt leveling your 2ND character, which you should have access to:

  • Tier 5 Support Gems
  • Greater Jeweller's Orbs
  • Currency to invest in Unique and Rare items

Preparation beforehand will yield the best results, remember, you only need to set this up once then use it for all other class that you want to level.

This setup is CLASS AGNOSTIC. We'll stack + skill levels, scales that with the physical damage from Hollow Palm, and this allow us to scale our damage throughout the campaign, from the moment you pick up Hollow Palm Technique, until the end of Interlude.

About the Warrior Variant

Merc being in the bottom and a bit far from Hollow Palm Technique will make it a bit difficult to run this setup. You can swap in Act 2 (at level 20), and it will be a bit weaker than the other classes. The warrior variant doesn't have access to any good, the best option is probably Titan for Mysterious Lineage for that extra life and survivability.

Ascending is optional and you should not need to ascend at all.

Other Class Variant

Witch Variant

Sorcerer Variant

Monk Variant

Huntress Variant

Ranger Variant

Mercenary Variant

Druid Variant

Disclaimer

  • This build is not intended for endgame content and is meant to take you through the campaign from level 1 to 65 only. This build uses a specific tree and will require you to respec later on to your build.
  • You'll also need some currency to get started because there are some required unique items in this build, and if you don't have it, expect the player's power to drop drastically.
  • Toward the end of the campaign, this build will be squishy, but you can very easily replace Foxshade / Tabula Rasa and Meginord's Girdle with rare ES/Evasion Body Armour and rare Belt with resistances to make your character tankier

Strengths and Weaknesses

  • Simple and effective setup from level 1 - 65
  • Minimum gear swap
  • Reusable across multiple class
  • Hollow Palm damage is INSANE
  • Need respec after campaign

We'll run a Pillar of the Caged God (so all your attribute should be strength when you don't need int/dex) setup for Act 1, and toward the end of Act 2, we'll respec.

Attributes

Mainly get strength, but if you lack intelligence/dexterity on gear, you can also spec into intelligence/dexterity as well.
