[3.1] Volatile Berserker (Poet's Pen + Volatile Dead) | 8-9K Life | Incredible DPS | Easy Leveling

Is there any sort of movement skill that can be used with this setup? I don't care if its a four link since I'm using a tabula, I just really think its lacking in the movement department.

Lightning Warp or Charged Dash. If you feel like it, you can have a weapon swap with Brightbeak + Shield and Shield Charge whenever you need to travel large distances.
I will try out lightning warp on my tabula, should be a decent use.

I'm playing this right now in Abyss HC and having a lot of fun. For movement I have flame dash linked with arcane surge, faster casting, and increased duration for a bit of extra damage. Not optimal but I like flame dash. Just a quick question, I can't afford to get the extra body volatile dead enchant so far. Is there another gem that should go in my poet's pen along with unearth and LMP. I tried out another spell (Firestorm) but it seemed to lower my rate of casting volatile dead.

Thanks OP
Sooooo in which order would someone acquire the big items in the build?

1) Enchant
2) Kaom's
3) Atziri gloves
4) Good assassin's mark ring (these are surprisingly costy)


Would you say its different?

Also : currently using a rasa with frenzy, faster, GMP, pierce, maim and power charge

If you don't have the enchant, you could use something like Blind or Culling Strike. I'm not sure what the optimal setup would be.

In my opinion, I'd say:

Kaom's Heart > Atziri's Acuities / +2/3 Enchanted Helmet > Assassin's Mark Ring

Kaom's Heart is relatively cheap for the amount of power it gives you and is a massive boost to the survivability of the build, so I'd recommend getting it first. Atziri's Acuities are roughly the same price as an enchanted helmet, it's really up to you what you want to get first here(Damage vs Survivability), I personally went with the helmet enchant and just recently picked up Acuities.

On the topic of the Assassin's Mark ring. I'm thinking about just dropping it from the build entirely. Running PCoC with Frenzy should be enough to sustain Power charges while clearing and bosses. A well crafted Opal ring(crafted with Essence of Anger) will yield significantly more DPS than an Assassin's Mark ring and also has the benefit of being easier and much cheaper to obtain. This would also opens up the option to possibly run a Blasphemy aura instead of Haste.

I'm going to edit the OP tomorrow to reflect this idea.

Just grabbed an opal ring with fire damage so going to drop the shaped ring and run assassins mark on blasphemy. Leaves little mana left (so pre stacking orbs on bosses isnt as easy). But damage should be much higher so thats nice.

Hopefully will go well.

is this build good for hightier bosses like 4 guardians, shaper, elders? how about 6-link belly with barrage for single target?
