[2.2] The Crimson Viper - Gladiator, Budget, Bleed, Bloodlust & Poison

I wish I had more free time to enjoy this build, it's a VERY FUN to play all-round, some hit'n'run, some rush to keep frenzy charges, some moments where you just make enemies useless and HIGHLY explosive ;D and sometimes you have to whirl around like a burning chicken to not get one-shot to death WHILE doing all of the above.

TL;DR requires skill and attention, RECOMMENDED build.

So I was toying around with this build for a while now and I wonder if outmacht and outlast would be good enough to replace bloodrage. I dont know why, but I dont like using it. So far Ive been generating frenzy charges through blasphemy-PM which gives a good amount of Life and Mana back also helps with accuracy but I could put in vulnerability and deal a lot more damage.


EDIT: Okay so for some reason I changed this build quite a lot and Im interested in your opinion, since I dont know how this is going to perform later on. As I said I dont like bloodrage, so in the end I decided to buy some blood dance boots for my frenzy charges. Then I went for Blasphemy+Vulnerability which is just convenient. Yeah, I had to get rid of grace but I felt like evasion wasnt doing that much anyway.

I switched from spectral throw to reave which is awesome and works better than expected. Ignore the lightning golem, I guess i should take chaos/stone to help with my weak defense. As soon as I replaced my leveling jewelry and got my resistances capped im gonna try some higher maps but I already feel pretty squishy. Can I make this work?

Just thought I'd chime in.

Followed this build guide in Perandus HC and got to 84 before the league ended. Character name is CrowKnow_VS if you want to see it. I ended up dropping some damage nodes for life but the build still feels great. The tooltip is only 2.5k haha but that obviously isn't accurate with tons of damage coming from bleed and poison and occasionally abyssal cry. Everything exploded as advertised. Great and cheap.

I imagine you can drop Daresso's for Kintsugi nowadays
