Build Overview

Venom Draught Quest: Chaos Resistance and Ailment Threshold.
Build idea:
Hammer of the Gods is long cooldown ability with huge damage. Normally you can cast it once every 24 seconds.
Why Chronomancer:
Ultimate Command (
Time Snap), that reset all your cooldowns, in this build it's Hammer of the Gods.
Now and Again will also improve Hammer of the Gods by granting 33% chance for skills to not go on cooldown, as well as for Time Snap.
Build Variants
Main setup (Herald of Ice)
Leveling
Normal setup with 
Herald of Ice and 
Polcirkeln.
If you struggle getting strength, consider 
The Vertex, it lower attribute requirements for all gear and gems by 50%, so you will need only half as much strength for 
Giant's Blood.
But preferably just get more Strength. With decent rare gear and 
Morior Invictus you can get over 636 Str which allow to use all Maces.

Equipment
Gear above is my actual gear in game!
About Gear:
- 2Handed mace (FOR CLEARING):
- High Physical DPS, +# to All Melee Skills is not really needed.
- Low enough Strength requirement to use it.
*So if Mace require 150Str, you need to have 450Str to use it due toGiant's Blood. - 2Handed maces (FOR SINGLE TARGET):
- Decent Physical DPS with +# to All Melee Skills.
- One of Maces should have Life Leech, or get it on Ring or Gloves.
- Any good suffixes: Strength, Stun Buildup. Stun Duration. - Shield (once you get Giant's Blood):
- High Block, around 40% or more.
- High Life, Strength.
- #% Additional Physical Damage Reduction, roll up to 8%.
- Preferably cap Resists without Shield, so when you swap to Set 2, your Resistances are still fine. - Armour:
- Overall it's Life + Resists + Strength.
- Gloves with +2 to All Melee Skills.
- Boots with Movement Speed obviously.
- GettingMorior Invictus with Life/Attributes is first priority as it's greatly increase Life compare to any rare Body Armor. - Belt and rings:
- Overall it's Life + Resists + Strength.
*You can get Accuracy on Jewellery to drop
Resolute Technique.
- One of Rings isPolcirkeln. For corrupted enchant look for %Life regeneration or %Skill Speed. - Amulet:
- First priority is +3 to All Melee Skills.
- Then Life and All Attributes which will help withHerald of Ice Dex/Int requirements.
- Then anything extra like more Strength, or extra Resists.
Titanic for Instil. - Jewels:
- One Jewel with Gain 1 Rage on Hit.
- Magnitude of Bleeding you inflict.
- Attack/Melee Damage, Damage with Maces.
-
Prism of Belief with Hammer of the Gods, +2 lvl goes for 1 Div.
-
Against the Darkness jewel with 4% strength on notable passives in jewel socket next to 
Split the Earth.

set 1:

set 2:

In skill gem menu:
- Weapon set 1 (Pink) for clearing, set all skills to only set 1 except Hammer of the Gods and Warcries.
- Weapon set 2 (Green) for single target, set Hammer of the Gods and Warcries to only set 2.
- Herald of Ice and Overwhelming Presence should be enabled on both sets.
How it Plays
Clearing:
Stampede, sometimes Perfect Strike or Hammer of the Gods for rares.
Single Target:
- Since Hammer of the Gods does Bleed Damage, there's no reason to spam all of them at once.
- Drop Solar Orb to generate Rage.
- Infernal Cry then Hammer of the Gods, then
Temporal Rift to get back to full life. Keep Solar Orb up. - Once boss heavy stunned use both Infernal Cry and Seismic Cry before next Hammer of the Gods.
How it Works
Basically explained above.
