1.3 [Newbie Friendly] GROUNDSLAMMER BUILD

With ground slam you deal average of 1k physical damage. With 2% you will leech 20 mana per enemy. Assuming you hit at last 3 enemies you can maintain 60 mana cost skill.

With heavy strike you deal average of 2k physical damage. With 2% you will leech 40 mana, so you can maintain 40 mana cost skill

There is another problem with this. You need Int and Dex for Hatred, Purity and Wrath

true,
but the idea for very end game is really amazing.

For myself i'll probally go with

Iron Reflexes + Grace
or those Life Nodes near Iron Grip.


very unsure which i should take xD

overall your stats are low. 800+ armor is nothing in merciless/maps, it's like you have no physical damage reduction at all. at level 70 white mobs will hit for an average of 700+ life per attack. you need 8400 armor to reduce that by 50%, not counting endurance charges. magical and rare mobs will potentially do 30-50% more, and some of them will crit you since you cannot evade. unless you can get 9 endurance charges and keep them up consistently, you're going to melt.

i've found that a relatively "safe" benchmark for level 69 maps and above is 3.5k health (4k ideal), 150-200 hp regen, 6k armor, 75% all elemental resist, -20% chaos resist. for damage at least 3.5k ground slam dps, and 6.5k heavy strike. until you can get that, farm the docks with max fire resist gear so you don't die to rare voidbearers with additional projectiles in 2 seconds. you still get 100% XP from docks runs until level 71, and 100% XP from lunaris temple runs until level 72.

first of all thanks for the help,
but i don't think that this armor value is reachable with this build. I get no boost from armor by any nodes we skilled.
So i don't thnk 8400armor is reachable...
Even with grace and iron reflexes.... (1k armor)


My gear is bad i know, but i'm farming docks and maps (with a friend) all day long.... but tbh my luck slows my gameplay ^^)

So if u got any advice let me know it.

Currently my priority order for gear is:
1. 2x 4Red Linked items
2. Hp
3. Resistance

Thanks for the help, and correct me if i'm wrong.
