Ascendancy Classes and passives trees

3 Good options for this build:

Allrounder, the Scion Ascendant

A must pick is the berserker, this will allow us to drop the life leech gem and use less duration for a smoother gameplay and more dmg.

After the berserker the other options are non essential, meaning u can choose whatever u feel like it will help u the most, my favourite is the Raider for the 40 dex (OH YES), ability to drop Blood dance boots together with the high buff in movement and attack speed which will be nuts in combination with devoto's.


PASSIVE TREE (still subject to change, will be adjusted with feedback and ascenandcy information as the league goes on, Elemental Overload is worth trying but without tests i wont allocate it in the build thread tree)

The Dmg, Marauder Berserker

The Berserker grants us an enormous amount of dmg for an ok drawback.

while also giving us the freedom to drop the lifeleech gem for less duration

Note: The extra jewels in comparison to scion were added as placeholder until i can think of a better use of those passive points)

The Defense, Duelist Champion

THE HC class, we'll suffer alot in dmg when picking this class for obvious reasons but in exchange we get alot of survivability through a buffed Fortify

While still getting some damage and movementspeed for u and ur party.

What about Chieftain ?
Life reg,10% penetration,35% inc. dmg on burning (60% with celestial punishment), 1% fire leach and 30% increase fire dmg.

If you go Chieftain you can't use Elemental Equilibrium since 20% of your physical damage is converted to fire.

tbh i would do Explosive Arrow - Greater multiple projectiles - Fire penetration - elemental focus - Less duration unless u invest in chance to ignite and burning dmg, but imho ignite is more usefull against bosses where u could switch out the gem

Sorry if this has been answered numerous times, but is Conc Effect's radius reduction that much of a drawback to consider it for 69+% more damage?

Any tips for leveling? since the leveling part is outdated, was wondering if there was any new fast way of leveling with this build. The duelist one spesificly.
