It s very rare a build dual claws, without VP...

He uses Bloodseeker.




Also, dude, your "The Core build" link is broken. :P

Good to see you too env. It's a known issue, 0.11.2 broke the original link and the ranger melee cluster is sexy, now playtesting some more with new passive tree as linked on page 1 near the bottom. Will edit first post when I am done.

By the way,

First post has been updated. The links should all be working now.

Of particular note:
- Updated Build section for 0.11.2.
- Feel free to comment on my position with respect to IR. I am very happy with mixed defenses! And yes, it works in maps.
- Updated the skills and supports section to emphasise that having a dedicated single target attack is not necessary. Also added a short note about the use of multistrike.
- Added side note about mana leech. I still recommend Mind Drinker for stability, as gear is enough in flux that I would rather not have to find mana leech on my leveling gear. Spec out of it in endgame to save 4 points...unless you go EB, then feel free to keep it.

By the way,

showoff. :P

This build is so bloody cool. I laugh as I faceroll rooms full of mobs with 2.4k health:)

However....

How do u deal with dudes like kole and his slam....he does like no dmaage to me then gets lucky and one shots me with slam? Just use granite flasks while I kill him?

@env: bought it on onslaught for 4 chaos, flipped it on softcore for 2 exa. You would have been proud of me.

I just went and took out Kole in Lunaris, 2.8k HP 800 armour. Used granites, did fine. However, this isn't going to work vs map Brutus clones - for those I would continue to recommend decoy or skeleton totems and paying a whole lot of attention to the fight.

okay cool, ill try that, thanks!

Hi, I just spoke with you about this build from rangers perspective on the passives tree, perhaps you can just draw one up for me? :) for about 90-100 passive points. Btw, I noticed I got HP from N Oak and then 2 SP from the rest, from what you wrote on your build I guess should be fine! THanks

80 points for level 60 and fill in the rest with whatever you deem appropriate as well as any extra attribute points you might need. 1% HP per second in the ranger start area is also a fantastic choice, as is the mana regen one next to it.

Man. This build works BETTER from ranger than shadow. Ugh.

Hm. I reckon that's because of the life/eva nodes from the ranger tree change. not entirely your fault. :P
