2% dmg as mana or more and run hatred only, should be fine w.o soultaker

Edit: that or run cyclone w bm and have good leech

Thank you very much for this guide / build.
Cyclone became my favourite attack as soon as i used it with this char. At the moment iam at lvl 79 and my dmg is around 25k (with hatred and 3 frenzy charges) + 4,1k Life atm.

Iam playing with two axes (soul taker + rare siege axe). Thats the reason why iam able to take all the axe dmg nodes on the skill tree. It is a huge advantage so far. Some of those 12% axe dmg nodes will be regreted though, when i reach lvl 86 (i will go for "aspect of the panther" / "weapon artistry" tree of course, because it has a nice combination of speed and damage).






my current Gear:


(armor is just equipped in order to lvl up some gems)


and by the way: Maybe it was a little bit harder to lvl up my Marauder, but now he is looking far more bad ass, than all those other red tshirt dualists out there :P

If someone has further questions or wants to play a map together, just message me ingame (char name: sarudoshi)

So I just got a dual strike 60% crit chance 15% quality. Should I still skill resolute technique?

Took about 1month to find this gear on domination

Great indestructible build.

Hi alot of pages to shift thru, so not sure if this has been asked/addressed already but here goes.

I'm currently using this build and loving it!

Current Gear:


My questions is, would it be a sizable dps increase to, drop BoR pick up a solid 6L Chest, add the 2 gems as 20/20 (melee phy and FA)? I know counting the gems itself its an obvious dps increase just have those 2 extra lvls plus 20% quality. I'm not sure however how much of a loss in dps the 20-30phy dmg the BoR gives.

Also if i go with the 6L set-up, im thinking of dropping one of the rings and adding Mings since i'll be so far over res cap with chest/helm combo.

Thanks guys!

i think 20-30 flat from bor is more than diffrence beetween quality and 18lev gems

whats better for this build, faster but a little less dps or should i forget APS and go for 1.35 with 330 p dps?

Hmm so...

New Gear Set



Crappy helm i know but all i had in mah stash lol and now im broke.

Well with this set, i only gained 1500dps.
But i gained massive boost to Armor/Resists/Chaos Resist

And my gems are almost 20 so that'll knock the dps up a bit too. Anyhow, I like it, was kinda hopeing Ming's would pump my dps up a bit more tho lol but its still a good trade off i think.

Just need to upgrade boots/gloves/ring and im good. Ammy too but i can't really lose the Int and those are pretty hard to find.
