Hey, made a build inspired by you.
Would like to hear your opinion and if it would work or not.
I will test it soon.

It will work, but would you not be better off with something like cyclone IR spectral throw? Wild strike just dosent have enough coverage in my opinion.

How much crit do you have and what % is recommended to have?

I have like ~55% chance to crit. Not sure what your second question is asking, but get as much crit as possible since it scales so well the more you invest in it.

I meant the minimum % lol. Forgot to put that there.

There is no real minimum, you should get as much as possible to make it worthwhile otherwise you are not using crit to its fullest potential.

I was wondering how you got 4.5k hp because I followed the tree and I have 18% more life to get but i'm at 3.5k hp with just a ring missing life but the other pieces of my gear all have good life rolls. Also I was thinking is it okay to drop iron reflexes? I have 7.3k armour and 5.2k evasion which is 47% physical reduction and 37% chance to evade at lvl 76

Well, i took Wild Strike because several reasons.

Some passives support WildStrike but not Cyclone.

That Cyclone is best in Slot for COC is no discussion, also boring as fuck in my Opinion, im sry.

Spectral Throw has multiple downsides to Wildstrike, way less damage, not that much hits,and you would need a multiple projectiles. With my build i dont need any support gem that reduces the damage of the initial or the COC spells :)

I'd say it's fine to drop IR in your case. Levelling up gives you flat life as well so if you have 60+ life on each piece you should get 4.5k easily.

I'm currently playing a similar char to this, I put it together pretty quickly after returning to the game in 2.0 just out of stuff I had in my stash. I looked over your build and took some inspiration from it as well.

I use Bino's cause I had one in my stash and the regen is nice for sustain.

I run about about 75k DPS on Wild Strike and the clear speed is pretty decent, plays similar to Reave but the chaining makes it clear faster. It's quite lacklustre on bosses though.

The build is very weak to spells. Even with Stone of Lazhwar and Atziri's Step, you basically get owned by any spellcasters. I killed Atziri at level 88 but I died whilst doing it.

Vengeance - Assassin's Mark seems pretty ineffective and wastes links imo, I'd rather self-cast it. It's unreliable and not worth 3 links.

Sotto u care to share build and gear? Trying to save up for a Bino's aswell

First of all, thanks for the guide, Wenhao232. Been using it for about a week now and it's really a fun one.

But with that said, I feel like there's a lot of unanswered questions, and the guide, doesn't really go into detail trying give any justification for certain decisions. To name a few of the top of my head:

Why no "Minion Life" or "Blood Magic" linked with the "Summon Ice Golem"?
Since the Golem is going yolo half the time, it dies all the time. Having to remove your auras, recast the golem, and then wait for your mana to replenish, seems really inefficient.

Why don't you have a jump-like ability like "Flame Dash", or even "Lightning Warp"?
Personally, I can't live without one. I switched "Whirling Blades" out with it myself. I use a Quicksilver Flask to get around.

Why do you run with a total of 125% mana reserved?
I might have missed something, but you seem to be running Hatred (50%), Arctic Armor (25%), and Herald of Ice (25%) & of Ash (25%). Thats 125% total, yeah? So, what do you use when, and why? Why not just remove the last 25% of replace it without that could benefit you all the time?

With at least 100% mana reserved, why run with a Mana Flask?
Is this in case that your golem dies, so you can regain your mana quickly, so you can activate your aura quickly again? If that's the case, that seems really unnecessary, and again inefficient.

Why no leveling guide?
Im an experienced player myself, so I had little problems leveling with this guide. But that might not be the case for others. Why not make a leveling section? What do you use as attack before lvl 28? Which nodes do you take first, and why? etc.


Other than that, keep up the good work :)
