We still don't know full changes, need to wait for the full patch notes.

Build should be still playable but 2x Claws would no longer make sence rly after dmg nerf and ES nerf Shield might be a better option. We still dont know if ES shields can also roll weapon ele dmg like some shield ppl droped on BETA.

We just might speculate, wait for the patch notes and then guide probably gonna be updated.
i wait patch note

Hand of Wisdom And Action: No longer adds 1-6 Lightning damage to Attacks per 10 Intelligence. Now grants 1-10 lightning damage added to attacks with this weapon per 10 Intelligence.


HoWa was buffed instead of being nerfed O:

BUT: ES is nerfed

its not buffed, only 1 weapon dmg works now, previously both weapons dmg was added to skill so 2-12 and it adds 1-10 but only to attack by this weapon so its basicly 1-10 always.


The ES nefr aren't that bad, you could still reach near 8k ES or maybe 9k ES if u sacrifice some dmg nodes for more ES ones, still the biggest problem is a fact we can't longer facetank insta leech and seems like they didn't change reflect so it's basicly RIP if u meet a reflect mob.

EVEN with 20k GMP u should be good for mapping and i had seen someone with 4 link ST killing Shaper so dmg isn't a problem rly.

nice that you like it perjman :)

Thats a mistake, sorry.
We dont need Vaal Pact anymore, will update the trees again (w/o Vaal Pact), thank you!
Can't wait for updated changes in your build and items for 3.0, it seems that without VP it`s RIP :/
This build is good for 3.0 ? i can start whit that ?
Great guide, thanks a lot for making it!

I have a question regarding stun immunity. Where do you get it from with this tree and gear setup? Or do you play without it? I might be overlooking something, but from what I can tell there's no stun mitigation in your build.

Last league I used a similar build to this one, but I was using the unwavering stance node. There are some nice intelligence nodes to pick up along the way, especially with a brute force jewel to convert strength to intelligence. However, it's quite an investment and takes around 8-10 points away from potentially ES increases or other damage boosting nodes.

I would love to hear some input about this!
