Immortal King WW Marauder [tanking merciless Kole and Vaal]
Sounds good )
That second mace with 25% attack speed is going to work a lot better than your current one -- it will make sweep especially much better. But ideally you want attack speed AND stun threshold reduction. You can also get 12-14% stun threshold reduction belts pretty cheap, search for them on poexplorer.com.

@deen
have you used multistrike in your build? whats your take on it Domine Non Es Dignus

Reasoning on the use of Cloak of Flames? To convert physical->fire to get reduced by 80-84% Fire Resists? Is that really that beneficial, when you have Endurance Charges or Immortal Call up, when you could have any other chest instead?

I'm looking for a better belt now, but I have a feeling I'm going to be very happy with that maul once I get it linked. Worst case this one was cheap enough that if/when I find something with high damage, attack speed and stun threshold reduction I certainly wont feel bad about buying it.
Cloak of flames works surprisingly well (more or less like having one more endurance charge), that said a nice armor chest would probably work as well if not better, but I don't have a really nice one to compare with unfortunately. The one I have is working fine, but to be honest Id rather have the cloak back on. |

" I have tried it with sweep - it is somewhat useful, but not for this particular build because you want to stun as much as possible, and multistrike directly reduces damage to 60%, so your chance of stun is reduced directly as well. On Cylcone multistrike is not good because you cannot control where you will move with it. Immortal King WW Marauder build:

" Cloak of flame damage reduction would stack on top of endurance charges. Because this build has no armor passives and uses no armor aura, you do not get a big benefit from armor rating on your chest. For example, skeletal Rhoas in merc fetid pool charge for 600 damage before armor. With 1000 armor rating (lets assume you get it from helm/gloves/boots/belt), you reduce that 600 dmg hit by 1000/(1000+7200)=12%, by 73 points of damage. If you put on a chest with 1000 armor, for 2000 armor total, the 600 dmg hit is reduced by 2000/(2000+7200)=22%, by 130 points of damage. If you put on cloak of flame, you get another 16% reduction on top of 12% reduction with 1000 armor for a total of 28% reduction (168 points of damage). For bigger hits like brutus and Kole, the cloak of flame will be even better, but for small hits like skeletons and monkeys, armor is better. You can also get life on chest and other resists, that is up to you to decide what to wear) Immortal King WW Marauder build:

" I can actually give you my maul and belt from this character, since he is on default and I dont play him anymore. Message me ingame (Patnica) if you want them.

Hi again, i am really enjoying this build so far. Great stuff!
I was just wondering how you are getting the intelligence and dexterity to keep up with the gems?? Thanks! |

Best I can get on the chest seems to be 2 red 2 blue 1 green so I'm swapping stuff around and keeping sweep/cyclone 4 linked. If the offer still stands for the belt and maul, Id be more than happy, the helm you have linked would also be nice, I have resists mostly maxed out but could use some more chaos resist. I will message you in game when you are logged in.
Lvl 72 and have run maps with public parties and friends. There are some things to watch for and some maps I stay away from, but most of the 66-68's have been no problem. For the most part if I play smart I don't die and the friends I run maps with love me on maps with necros rhoas and titans, once you do enough damage with sweep you can actually stop charging white rhoas and rolling rock things. Re: int and dex, I am getting most my dex and most of my leech from the slitherpinch gloves, and I took one dex+int node in the marauder tree, this has been enough to level up the dex gems I have on (84 dex). For int the nodes on the way to the upper health nodes (going up towards static blows) is enough int so far. I purposely took those nodes before I took the hp just to have the int to level gems (purity/vulnerability/enfeeble). Linked skill tree below so you can see the differences. If I can get dex on some end game gear I can also spec out of that point, something to think about when looking for gear. Biggest question now is where to go from here? Have to decide which remaining hp nodes would be most efficient I guess, I think I'm pretty much OK for damage at this point. Might swing down the bottom of the tree and grab resolute technique/berserking and the HP over there. Other option is more HP overall but no RT/berserking over towards the center of the tree. Suppose actually getting those passive points first will be the harder part, we will see. Still also need that quality immortal call so i can get those 3 buff points back, maybe I can trade one of my quality gems for one. |

Got to 84 in SC with a good map group. Will probably do the 4 month anarchy league so this char will go on the back burner for now but I will be interested to see the changes after the .11 patch, might update if I have some time to play over the next few days before the new leagues depending on whether a respec is needed or not.
Passive tree if anyone is interested
