for tempest shield and blood rage, is it okay if i level them until my stats are not sufficient or keep them at lv6 as it is?
Hey guys,

I have to ask a simple beginner question which was probably asked a lot: How does this build deal with Uber Atziri and Shaper?
I have read in some post that someone managed to deal with the Shaper but how's Uber Atziri going?

Greetings

Cast When Damage Taken level 1 supports skills until the level requirement of 38, Tempest Shield and Blood Rage both meet that requirement at level 7 (37). If they're leveled up to 8 (req. level 40), they wouldn't be supported by CWDT anymore. So you'd have to level up CWDT to level 2 or higher.
And you don't want to level CWDT because you'd have to take more damage until you trigger your skills.

As you can see Blood Rage gives 8% attack speed at level 6 and 7 and it's basically on for the whole fight, so it makes no difference if it's 6 or 7.

Tempest Shield is only there for the extra Block Chance, the damage is almost non-existent, so it doesn't matter which level it is, anyways. But you can level it up to 7 without thinking about it.

That's my understanding about it anyways, still kinda new myself.

ohh get it now.. totally forgot CWDT only support certain level of gem.. thanks for the detailed explaination !
Hey, currently im lvl 60 on this build but i noticed after getting my gear for the lvls i got so far i lack Cold res, i checked the gear on the guide and my cold res i pretty much the same yet i lack 40 cold res compared to his lvl 91 char stats. Any help would be appriciated.
I'm rocking this build but I actually modified a couple things. For my gear i am using


and I will be using
next level for some extra sustain. I went with phys to lightning because with static we are dishing out a crap ton of light anyways. With phys to light we are then using 110% ele and then that 30% increase from doryani and that .2% lightning leech we now leech on 110% of our damage. so far the armor beef from my gloves and that knock back proc on my tempest shield(because it procs on hits not on attacks) we drag enemies closer to us who arent quit in hit box often. it's a blast seriously I love this build.

I also want to add that I tried this same path with Doryani on all elements and with static strike it dished out the highest dps by swapping phys in for added fire.

Hello. I'm trying this out am have a character at level 63 in Act 3 Merciless, Standard. So far its been a great build. No BoR or Lioneye's shield yet (I'm using belly of the Beast armor and Soul Taker). I have a few levels to go for those. I'm doing 10-13,000 dps; have all three auras running; CWDT running. I am using Ancestral Warchief, but cannot cast my stone golem. :( No mana for that, but AW seems to cast OK. Everything is dying easily. My ign guy is Hazarat if you want to see the transition.

I am following your tree pretty closely.

Suggestions welcome.

Hi guys last night I made the decission to move away from my BoR and into 6 link setup, as for my gear I shopped a new pair of boots last night before I had to get some sleep, obviously I want to swap out my gloves and rings as well. I´m way overcapped in resist.

Keep in mind please I´m playing the build in HC

As for the skill tree I would like your input since I have no evasion I decieded to move away from the bottom right of the tree

Not sure if you know, but if you convert completely to lightning you're missing out on the majority of the AoE clearing. You can't bleed with no phys damage, and no bleed = no explosions from Gladiator passives.
