Where is it, i cant see it?

My bad I didn't realize you actually only linked the duelist part to marauder/templar parts of the tree that way only. That's kind of awkward to build then but that's fine I guess.

Yeah, its kinda strange, i thought one node longer way using all dmg nodes will be better then just +10 str way. But i changed my opinion now - i can actually save two nodes there, so i'll respec it on next level, connect above the RT, and have three spare points for some %life/%armor.

Has anyone thought of trying a curse on hit set up in their lightning coil? coh + warlords mark + Flammability and something else? Let me know what u guys think especially in regards to attribute requirements as well as mana cost.

edit: also is flat phys dmg better then cold/fire/lightning dmg on my gear or does it not matter?

I am personally on the team that uses blasphemy warlord's mark / Herald of Ash / Hatred. I do not think you want a flammability curse I would think vulnerability / enfeeble / warlord's would be much better.

From the original guide

Offensive affixes, in priority:

1. Physical Damage%
2. Added Flat Physical damage
3. Weapon Elemental Damage%

To answer your question flat physical is the thing you are looking for. Think of it as increasing the weapons base damage, which in turn gets multiplied quite a lot. The elemental bonuses you listed are not very good for us. Even though we do a lot of elemental damage scaling physical which also scales our elemental is the best bet.

What do you guys think of this lv.95 skill tree?

4x jewel socket. I value this node very high. Because you can get 4 good stats on a rare jewel.

14% increased Physical Damage with Two Handed Melee Weapons
16% increased Physical Damage with Maces
12% melee or area damage
7% max life

This is probably what you're looking for.

Edurance charges I also value high. Because of the defence it gives and immortal call.
Frenzy charges same story. i would even get the Frenzy charge from Oak. Damage scales very nicely. And im using leap slam for mobility.

I even got the Rampart node. Because I feel its worth it.


From lv.95-100 you can get the 5x5%life nodes around Contituation for 25% more life, or go for more damage with the elemental damage nodes I skipped. Personally, I find the elemental damage nodes kinda weak. So I only got the best one Catalyse. Because its also gives 20 stats. There is also Martial Experience Node for physical damage.


Let me know if anything can be improved.

Guess at the end we all have the same nodes, just different ways to connect them... :-)

That split between Catalyse and Sanctify looks usefull, that will save me another point after respec.

Rampart - there was some math few pages ago from the build creator, to prove its not worth it even for perm fortify build. 6 point for 35% dmg (plus some defence)...

Yeah, im not sure how Rampart was calculated. I was thinking the 15% increased Fortify effect was worth it. Because I remember the gem Fortify also have like 40% physical damage. And together with the Champion fortify buffs it would add more.But I guess the 15% increased fortify effect is only on the 20% physical damage reduced effect, giving only 3% physical damage reduced?


So those 6 points can be spend somewhere else thats better I suppose.

Ok so really enjoying this build but Elemental reflect maps kick my butt! What can I do to to counter those?

What do you guys think of speccing out of the life and mana leech nodes under duelist and move towards the 2-handed cluster at the bottom?

Can anyone tellme requirements to beat atziri with this build?
also i improved my stuff like people on forum told me to do, should i upgrade anything else?

Mentioned a couple times in the thread. Drop hatred and Harold of ash and remove added fire and physical to lighting and weapon elemental gems in your weapon.

I generally turn on determination instead of hatred.
I put stun in my weapon and concentrated effect and endurance charge on stun.

This is much less DPS so be prepared for that. Works ok have cleared tier 12 elemental reflect.
