Do we really need movement speed on boots? With two -non-challeling mana cost leap slam costs 0, so we can move exclusively with it and movement speed has no effect on how fast we move with it.
Also i see many champions using sinistral gloves base with paradoxica in offhand what do you think about it?


Heya!
I greatly discourage using any attack movement skills with The Saviour because you will end up with a leapslam/whirlwind blades reflection proc. You really don't want that to happen since it will greatly decrease your clearspeed and damage. If you wanna save on currency go ahead and drop movespeed and build around leap slam, but you've been warned. hehe
Regarding the sinistral gloves, they do greatly increase your damage with that setup now that Paradoxica has been buffed. With the previous league paradoxica a setup with crafted Sinistral Gloves would result in a small gain to dps, so I deemed it not worth going for it at the time. You may go with that base instead of gripped gloves, I just think that it may be a bit more expensive.

Hope that answers the questions.

Hello! Really enjoying the build and actually thinking about facing the end game content (maven/the feared).
I still have a lot of stuff to improve but was thinking about what should aim first to upgrade. Rare body 6l? Bottled Faith? 21/23 gems?

Thank you for the amazing guide!


Heya! I already ran Maven and all invitations besides The Feared at the moment on my LS Champion this league(even killed Maven twice with 2 man hp to carry friends). Your character can probably already kill maven if you know the mechanics. But to improve your character rn I recommend getting a 21/23 LS and a 21/20 impale and maim, it will help a bit with Maven. Bottled Faith isn't the most needed of upgrades for you right now, but it would greatly increase your damage. Get new jewels with crit multi to increase your damage and, if possible, level up 2 more levels, allocate the medium jewel socket in your large cluster, drop the Gladiator's perseverance passive cluster and get a medium cluster with repeater and Eye to Eye, allocating both notables and getting acces to a new jewel socket will give you more damage and a higher life if you get jewels with life and crit multi + attack speed.

I don't plan on going for the feared at the moment, when I run that I'll share my experience here.

Hope that helps! Have a great one!

Thx for the help! I'll try maven this weekend and hopefully share the good news!

heyja, doing great with this build atm @2.6m single projectile combined dps and 24m with call of steel.
Short question how can i improve the clear. i dont wanna say its bad but can i speed it up a little bit , asking because wanna run 5ways.


Heya! Last league I used a Awakened fork to carry some 5-ways, it greatly increases clear speed even in maps. But do not use The Saviour with LS in that instance(5-way) or you're going to crash it. I really mean it. Maybe you should swap LS for Splitting Steel and keep The Saviour while swapping Pierce for Awakened Fork. I'm going to try that in this league. Splitting steel doesnt crash the instance while using the saviour afaik, but I want to test the clear to see if it is good enough to substitute LS for that content.

Hope that helps! Happy farming and good luck!



thank you . do i need anyother way to pierce ?

Heya! I ran it without any pierce, but you may get the first node towards piercing shots in the passive tree to have pierce alongside fork.

Have a great one!

Heya! Just an update. Finished the feared, melted most bosses then managed to kill myself with Atziri because of the hex reflection she has, got Sniper's mark on my head, she shot her projectiles and killed me. :)

So, try not to cast curses on her. :)

Hope that helps!

Nice! can't wait to try to not explode by the same mistake due to my bad memory jajaja
hello great build. but I have a serious problem. I bought. savior and I do not have enough damage to switch from yellow cards to red ones. damage is barely enough. what do I need to change in the build to make it comfortable to run red cards? here is my gear.

What's the best time to switch to Raider? I'm just about to start maps and I don't know if that's when to switch or if there are things I need before switching.
