Build Overview

3.29 CURSE OF THE ALLFLAME UPDATE

the only things different are that "Skill Gem Coins" and Cord Belts are no longer available - just ignore anything you see that mentions them
IGNORE THESE: Coin of Power, Coin of Skill, Coin of Knowledge, Cord Belt

enjoy!

SKILL ROTATION

CLEARING

1) Leap Slam & Frostblink to enemy packs
be sure to "animation cancel" Leap Slam by using Frostblink at Leap Slam's apex
*2) Rallying Cry (OPTIONAL - only use on tanky Rare enemies)
3) Holy Hammers

do NOT use your Tincture while clearing - it will annihilate your mana!

SINGLE TARGET

*1) Static Strike (w Power Charge On Critical Support)
*this is only necessary pre- Ashes of the Stars
2) Rallying Cry
3) pop Tincture (if you have one)
4) Holy Hammers spam
refresh Rallying Cry (and Static Strike) as needed

Holy Hammers is able to OVERLAP its damage on a single target - to do this consistently:

!! STAND AWAY FROM THE TARGET !!

your initial hit's AoE will deal damage AND spawn another hammer ("Cascade") to also hit

once you have perma Power Charges, you should also AIM OFF-CENTER of the target - your initial slam will still hit but, now, the "extra" Hammer that spawns (via Power Charge consume) will also hit
this "extra" Hammer has better overlap than a Cascade from your Slam

ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE "Always Attack Without Moving" TOGGLED ON FOR Holy Hammers
Left Click Holy Hammers' icon > toggle the option ON at the top

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

LEVELING

Holy Hammers requires level 28 and is acquired after killing Gravicius in Act 3

use Ground Slam until level 12 then swap to Sunder (after entering Cavern of Wrath)
you must BUY BOTH GEMS FROM NESSA as a Templar (for whatever reason lol)

at level 28, you can either swap to Holy Hammers (after killing Gravicius) or continue using Sunder
they are very similar at this point

HOWEVER, once you acquire a Romira's Banquet AND reach level 60, DEFINITELY swap over to Holy Hammers
Holy Hammers clear is 3x better when consuming a Power Charge

if you need more details for Sunder leveling, I have an ENTIRELY SEPARATE SUNDER LEVELING GUIDE written for Marauder that should fill in the gaps (USE THIS GUIDE'S PASSIVE TREE, though!)

BANDITS

help Alira or kill all

PANTHEON

CRAFTING YOUR GEAR

once you have 10-15div liquid, I suggest crafting a Staff and Body Armor. details are in the "HYPER Endgame" variant's Equipment section

HYPER ENDGAME STUFF

Forbidden Flesh & Flame Unwavering Crusade is great if you want to focus more on Bossing than "normal juiced" stuff
I don't run them, personally, but they're like ~30% more dmg if you want it

Strengths and Weaknesses

great clear
great single target
lots of regen (Sanctuary x Pious Path)
slamma jamma

have to overlap hits for max single target (stand AWAY from enemy!)
Large Cluster Jewel required for mana leech (Fuel the Fight)
