[3.7][SSF] PewPew82's Bleed stacking Lacerate Gladiator
|
Hey all, this is my first guide but its made with love and over 2000 hours of gameplay!
This build is focusing mostly on stacking bleeds for bosses and also fast clearing maps. We take crimson dance for 8 bleed stacks to melt bosses and elites as quick as possible. This build is good at stacking 8 bleeds up on an elite and backing out from its attacks as it bleeds to death! Also the bleed explosions from gladiator are SUPER satisfying! I am always on twitch.tv Twitch.tv/pewpew82 and will talk about the guide or anything else! PROS: - Can do all content - Budget[I am SSF] - Good survivability (Evasion/Armor/Blind/IC) - Solid clearspeed - Lots of bleeeeed - Good for lab and even Elder/shaper - Even with bleed as our main dps we still can clear packs with ease - Good at Legion mechanics, no issues with clearing statues and mobs afterwards CONS - PoB doesnt seem to work out bleed very well - Some mobs still hit very hard - Not sure how it will scale yet as I am ssf Playstyle This build clears maps easily with sand stance at range. Blood stance is used to kill bosses and harder elites quicker but do not forget you die easier in blood stance so dodge where possible. Play at medium range most of the time for best survivability!

Spoiler
This build works with stacking either armour or evasion, depending on that is what you would use and its really up to you. This build could work on full rare gear but here are some options
On rare gear you want to look for -Max health -resists -Phys damage -life on hit/mana on hit is nice -armour or evasion depending on what you choose to stack -Global accuracy /accuracy till 100% hit chance -attack speed Unique options that could work Body armour - Daresso's Defiance/The perfect form/Belly of the beast Gloves - Haemophilia/Veruso's Battering Rams/Maligaro's Virtuosity Boots - Kaoms Roots or atzri's step for evasion Flasks- Blood of the kurai/Atziri's promise are both nice Other options Stacking evasion gear and going Queen of the forest/ dual wield Dreamfeathers/ atziri's steps There are obviously way more options out there but these are a few I can think of off the top of my head. Basically anything that goes well with bleed/phys damage or gives us another defensive layer to work with! Gems

Weapon 1:Blood and Sand-Berserk-Flesh and stone Weapon 2:Vaal Haste-Herald of Purity-Dread banner Helmet:CWDT(lvl 12)-Temporal Chains(lvl 12)or Vulnerability(lvl 15)-Summon Stone Golem(level 14)-Steelskin(level 16) Body:Lacerate-Multistrike-Melee Physical Damage-Pulverise-Brutality-6th link could be Rage/shockwave Gloves:Leap slam-Fortify-Endurance charge on melee stun-Faster attacks Boots: I have used a totem set up but you could mix this up - Vaal Ancestral warchief-Multiple totems-Melee physical-Bloodlust For bossing(elder/shaper etc) swap out Pulverise for Ruthless for bigger dps at the loss of AoE You can also swap Vaal Ancestral Warchief Totem for Ancestral Protector Gladiator Ascendancy

I have had a few questions about leveling so here is some help.
Take perforate early until lacerate as it uses same supports. First 4 link i used was Lacerate-Multistrike-Melee Physical Damage-brutality. Dont use pulverize until you have enough attack speed as it makes it feel clunky(As it reduces your attack speed). You could always even use ruthless instead if you get a 5 link and dont have enough attack speed. Silver flask with onslaught helped me get through the earlier levels until I had frenzy charges and onslaught from the passive tree(graceful assault down the bottom) Other than that you can use haste as an aura on top of the others, if you can sustain mana well enough. (As soon as you get the mana leech node its pretty easy) I will be testing haste vs pride later on. Changelog

Hey,
just hit blood docks and I'm really struggling to make this build feel smooth. It may be my attack speed. What gems did you use for 4L ? |
|
|
Lacerate-Multistrike-Melee Physical Damage-brutality
Dont put pulverize in until you have enough attack speed for it as it lowers your attack speed. Also try to get weapons with attack speed and a silver flask for onslaught. That helped me get through to maps. I have added a leveling section for some tips on that, Even using haste is an option if you feel too slow. Finding vaal haste was a god send for me on ssf.

Isn't Alira a bit of a waste? Crit-multi doesn't help bleed damage???
