This build
Lightning Spear with
Primal Strikes will make you feel like we play 0.1 again!
Very smooth endgame Map farming as well as Bossing.
Build Overview
Build Variants
This is the start of Endgame version build which you can then later change into Valkyrie once you get more currency for items.
Equipment










Stats - ES/Evasion base gear
Armor - life, resistances, evasion / energy shield, attributes
Helm - same as above
Boots - movement speed and same as above, attributes
Gloves - flat damage (phys and lightning best), attack speed or melee skills, life, resistances, attributes
Belt - stun threshold helps a ton, life, resistances, attributes
Rings - flat damage is MASSIVE Damage boost since we can use 3 rings, life, resistances, attributes
Rarity - don't think it helps much, it seems player rarity isn't worth it so try to get Rarity on maps instead which works
Weapon - phys damage %, flat phys and lightning damage, attack speed, attributes, stun build up is actually INSANE
Jewels
Energy shield % increase, any damage mod, evasion - it is up to you really
Charms
Having
Valako's Roar is very helpful in combination with
Catalysis to generate some Frenzy charges
Skill Gems
Support Gem Requirements:
Str 40
Dex 35
Int 35
Primal Strikes
Orb of Storms
Barrage
Herald of Thunder
Lightning Spear
Ghost Dance
Wind Dancer
Tame Beast
Ritual Sacrifice






















Tame Beast is a skill gem making it a spell to use on a Rare monster with any aura you like and after you kill it it's yours. Reserves spirit especially the stronger rare it is so be careful as my Companion is 33.3% spirit in the video guide.
Cull The Weak is a NEW skill (still not in the database) added to generate Frenzy charges. When monsters are low enough HP they are highlighted to know when to use Cull.
Passive Tree
Atlas Tree
Atlas very optional - this setup is for map sustain which helped me A TON entering maps. Later on I will try out either Exiles or Strongboxes maaaybe Wisps need to do some testing.
How it Plays
1.
Lightning Spear - main clearing AoE ability - for single target it serves for applying Shock debuff for our 2.
2.
Primal Strikes - single target BEAST - require Shock debuff and
Lightning Spear is the best for it so you do 1. and 2. back and forth
3.
Orb of Storms - easy rage generation as well as mana
4.
Barrage - free damage boost for 1.
5.
Cull The Weak - easy Frenzy charges during maps
5a.
Conductivity - for further damage increase IF not using
Cull The Weak
5b.
Voltaic Mark - also an option instead of the above if you prefer that
How it Works
Frenzy Charge generation
You can use
Combat Frenzy together with Electrocute in
Lightning Spear for mapping but that would remove Shock debuff which you definitely need for
Primal Strikes so personally I don't think it's worth.
Instead we have
Cull The Weak which highlights low HP monsters and using this ability kills them giving you a Frenzy charge. With Profusion we can even get 2 charges.
Lightning Spear always eats 1 charge not all of them so that is very nice.
