Ultimatum League: Lv100 40/40 with one character (Dominating Blow)

Ultimatum builds diary for my personal records... but this time just one build.


I've long wanted a build that can league-start all the way to endgame content.

After reading BalorMage and GhazzyTV, Dominating Blow seemed like a contender for this and has always seemed cool in concept and play-style. I trialed a few levelling and early map builds at the end of Harvest and decided to go all-out for Ultimatum.

From the moment I socketed DB into my crappy 3L helm at Lv28, right up to hitting Lv100 just a few hours ago, it's been a really fun build, culminating with an absolute clutch Trialmaster spawn on my last map for Atlas Exploration where I got the stupid heart/tether challenge to net 40/40 challenges. Golem + Predator + Culling Strike FTW.

It's not a new build, but here's my dot-point summary:
-Straightforward play-style
-Straightforward gearing and upgrade paths
-League start, Lab, Maps, Delve, Breach, Shaper, Elder, Sirus, Map-boss Invitations all done easily (Delve is a breeze with this build)
-Mediocre for Legion content (can rush Generals and Chests but that's it)
-BAD at Maven fight and all the Uncharted Realm invitations. (No magic/rare mobs to spawn and can't ramp up fast enough to burst bosses down.)
-nonetheless, ACTUALLY FUN TO PLAY!

I would roll this build again but probably have a 2nd toon for Maven boss fights. Highly recommend you try it out!
