Build Overview

My League Starter for the upcoming Second Wind Private League and just an overall very solid Leaguestarting Character.

This Build is extremely simple to play and straightforward using Explosive Shot for Clear and Explosive Grenade for Singletarget DPS while utilizing the Titan Ascendancies Nodes like Hulking Form, Mysterious Lineage and Stone Skin.

Defensively this Build is stacking as much Armour as possible and then applying that Armour also to Elemental Damage taken with Nodes like Tempered Defences.

Best way to always stay up to date on this Build is to check in on my Twitch Channel where I will be playing and streaming this Build for the Second Wind Private League.

I will make sure this Mobalytics Guide will always stay as up to date as possible and if you want to follow along closely, check out the LIVE BUILD Variant in this Guide.

Equipment Priority

Stat Priority during Campaign:

  • +Level of Projectile Skills on your Weapon
  • Movement Speed on Boots
  • % Physical Damage on Weapon
  • Flat Damage on Weapon, Rings and Gloves
  • Resistances
  • Maximum Life on any Gearpiece

During Campaign, our biggest priority is always Damage, getting +Projectile Levels on our Weapon is always the most important as well as other Damage Modifiers like Physical Damage and Flat Damage.

Defensively getting Resistances on any Gearpiece that we can is very important as well as Maximum Life.

Our Defense Layer is going to be Armour, getting as much as we can on any Gearpiece, but especially our Body Armour because that Slot is going to be buffed by Stone Skin and Sturdy Metal.

If you can get the "Armour applies to Elemental Damage" early on, thats also a good bonus !

Check Vendors as often as you can to look for +Projectile Level Gear, Movement Speed for Boots or any other Upgrades you can get (High Armour Gear, Resistances, Maximum Life).

Vendor Regex: "\d (co|f|l).+da|nt speed|resi|d.+life"

You can copy this RegEx to paste it into the Vendor Search Bar to highlight Gear that you might want. This RegEx will highlight Items with Projectile Levels, Movement Speed, Maximum Life and Flat Damage.
