With good defense mechanics like damage mitigation 6k life is more than enough. You also could use kaom‘s heart and reach +7k life easy....

Why opt for stone golem? I picked ice golem.

I decided to go with stone golem to counter degeneration effects of Her Embrace & Blood Rage. I just felt the dmg was always so good that I could invest in this defense mechanic instead. Obviously ice or lightning golem are also very good options for a more offensive setup.

is it ok for me to run two swords or a sword and a shield?

Isn't it worth it to take Iron Reflexes for this build?

In theory yes but the range of onehanded weapons is very short. So you clearspeed will be worse.

Yes Iron Reflexes is a viable option but it is more a question of taste. I decided to go with more damage avoidance instead of physical damage mitigation.

Can u update some levling guide so we know how to handle a league start with this build?
Need more advice for weapons to level with and maby some more usefull support gems for Molten strike and later Cyclone. Also some other usefull gem combos that you could use when u level would be nice.

Ty in advance.


Is there room for Leapslam in this build since its pretty handy to get over ledges with =P

Hi, I started the Quick Leveling Guide (at the end of the guide)... I will finish it before the season starts. While leveling add % damage support gem are very useful.

You could use leap slam instead of whirling blades if you prefer it.

What about go 2 handed axes at level 12 and level with sunder until cyclone. get Destroyer after Master of Arena, go for Warriors blood -> Heart of warrior -> Born to fight and from here go Butchery to Barbarism to Resolute Technique and from here on Juggernaut and Blodless. Now we continue from Vitality void to Golems blood then keep going to Thick skin and over to that Herbalism and other sword area and now when we get that sword at level 60 we swap.

Remove the Butchery for strongarm and remove Destroyer.

Whats your thought about this?
