I have limited time so I'm just now hitting mapping and am level 77. Here's what I have so far:

I was looking at Belly of the Beast and I'm not entirely sure it's worthwhile for me to grab it as opposed to a 6 link rare body. PoB shows it'd give me armor a ~700 life boost but that seems to be about it. Am I missing something?

I ended up playing a little more and making some currency. Decided that I could get almost as good life out of a rare chest instead of a belly. Current gear at level 86:


Doing some calculations, it looks like I'm at about 2 million dps.

For gameplay footage & verbally describing the build, check out this video guide: Dominating Blow Video Guide

Finally my video is now available on YT again! (slightly outdated but shows gameplay at least!)

For those who are looking to try out this build:
1) don't link generosity with the smite
2) don't use ancestral call with the dominating blow. use melee splash instead

how i can acctually sustain the sentinels and the purity sentinals?

I just wanted to say thank you, Ghazzy, for this build. I tried it on about a month, month and a half into Delirium league, and it was a blast to play. I was amazed how quickly it got to 84th level, and I'm not a fast leveler by any stretch of the imagination. (He also picked up 45 deaths in the bargain, but I blame Delirium for most of them. Might even be true. :p)

Plus, it allowed me to use one of the names I had been wanting to try: Bocephus Wrath of God. But I may be the only one who finds that name amusing.

I know that Brightbeak is the sort-of buildmaker, but I never had one drop for me in Delirium. What I did have drop for me, was Clayshaper.



I definitely took on board your suggestion for using a Carrion Golem (what a discovery!), and getting this puppy allowed me the "have my cake and eat it too" moment of realizing I could have a Carrion Golem for extra offense and a Stone Golem (without socketing a gem!) for extra defense.

So imagine how I felt when this puppy dropped out of a Vaal Vessel later on.



The sockets weren't perfect; I had to spend a fusing+vaal and a few chroms+vaals on the crafting bench to make that happen, but not as much as you might think. It was the corrupted implicit of 6% increased attack speed that made me say, "It was Meant to Be™".

Florentine (dual-wielding) Clayshapers it has been ever since.

Again, I know it's not a Brightbeak, but with seven zombies (yes, I'm still using them), varying numbers of Sentinels, a Stone Golem and two Carrion Golems, I don't know that I'm missing out that much. :D

I have to point out I didn't even know Carrion Golem was a thing... and it very quickly became my favorite golem. It even reminds me a bit of the Misshapen Animal Skeleton from Kingdom of Loathing. Ah, memories.

Anyway! I just wanted to say thank you for this build, and I currently plan on using it as my league starter for Harvest because it doesn't require any crazy uniques. You're a star!

The sentinels aren't really meant to be sustained for very long. You "sustain" them by continually attacking things with Dominating Blow. Hope that's helpful!

Will be updating all my guides live on stream now:

www.twitch.tv/GhazzyTV

Build guide is now updated for 3.11 Harvest!

If you find any issues let me know, preferably over at twitch, discord or twitter!

i know you're probably managing multiple guides, but this seems like a minimum-effort update for 3.11 considering that you could work new warcries in.

Why would you not put rallying cry into the 3.11 update?
