ggg nerf hammered

So would a pair of Thunderfists be good for the build?

Neat looking build. Thanks for the inspiration. I am working on creating a 2H Staff build on Beyond. I will use Cyclone instead of Lightning Strike.

I've seen this thread many times.I bought a decent staff some time ago
and with master crafting I've made pretty good imo.


I've made a LS duelist with many differences from op's build but kudos
for the original build that inspired me to do one of my own.
I'm working on items and resists since I don't play much except from
searching masters.I'll post gear and tree for comparison.

capped resist or no capped resist?

Here is the best I could do for the Marauder build for 1.3.

Even though there is a loss in crit, I feel that the 4 unused points can actually provide much more versatility... the Templar elemental wheel, Duelist 2-hand damage wheel, Duelist attack speed wheel, lots of various life nodes and notables, lots of elemental resist notables.

Any thoughts

This is pretty terrible to be honest. Have you even looked at your defence \ life? Cleaned it up a bit:

Curious how well clear speed is with HS + melee splash compared to sweep or groundslam. Certainly with all the knockback.

will update this soon

nvm, build is dead.
so in patch 2.0.x ggg nerfed everything that made this build viable.

lightning strike is useless with peirce nerf,
all crit staff/two handed nodes got nerfed/removed,
life leech got hit hard and
vaal pact is between ranger and shadow now...
