The build

This is a Whirlwind build that use a lot of move speed and block to face tank everything.

This build use the slormreaper Kah-Veer for the damage, and various legendary effects in combinaison with the Deflect mastery of the knight for the survivability.
Defensive stuff

The deflect mastery give a lot of blocks stacks.


The crest shied is here only for his passive, that give you 1 block every second (so 2 with the specialization)

There are two legendary effect that are important for the late game :
































If you want EVEN more there are :































The idea is to have the biggest amount of life possible, with a combinaison of "% all damage reduction"

One last thing : Elemental resistance is important, especialy the shadow and fire one, you want both on both of your rings (it is the epic stat), if you don't, you can use the corresponding slorm reaper as a back up in order to complete the corresponding warlord
Offensive stuff
This skill use a lot of multiplicative traits in order to reach new levels of damages


There are 4 stats to scale (the better one is the move speed) :
-raw damage
-move speed
-crit chance
-crit damage

In addition 60% or 100% of damage against elites is always a good idea.

In the mid game, use the Rank 45 savagery trait in combinaison with some life lock (and a lot of max HP) in order to gain the raw damage.
In late game use the Primary stat from the NETHER items in order to have the biggest number possible.

It is also possible to use "RAW LOCK" in the ancestral legacy node with some combinaison of mana lock, in order to gain the raw damage in the mid game.


For the runes, just use the nimble warrior, there is not much to say here, the other options are fine in the mid game, but they all fall down in the late game.
Use Astoria rune for the two others slots, this is the same stuff for 90% of builds






















This is what an equipement piece should looks like in the late game :

Use the first 3 slots for the most importants stats.

Don't hesitate to take some random stats like overdrive chance, for the others slots, variety is good.


Slorm reaper
The best of the best is Kah Veer, it scale the move speed AND the imbue skill

BUT, Kah Veer don't scale the raw damage, so go for the other options as long as you don't have the NETHER items

It is also possible to do a elemental damage build with this setup, wich i did not because i wanted the wirlwing to do the damage for this build




































If you don't have Kah Veer you can instead play something like :






































It is possible to use The UNGIFTED with some Mana/life lock for some big stats.
It is also possible to cheesse the totality of the game with no damage and the "Exposed armor" effect of the DEADLY ACCURACY that stay active as long as you cast Wirldwhind, dealing % life damage to your enemies.

Again, thanks a lot Hypadao. My previous message can sound rude, i apologize. I just wanted to help if ppl ask for another version. Your version is original and helps a lot someone like me (who did not play since a few years) to understand new mechanics !

Oui c'est vrai Komar, j'ai fait le build dans mon coin, mais maintenant (que j'ai regarder ce qu'on fait les autres) j'ai le choix entre soit copier celui dont tu parles, soit laisser mon build tel quel, donc je suis embêter

TLDR : My build is not optimal, so i have the choice betwen copyin the guy who have the optimal build, or just let it be :/

Merci pour votre travail mais ce build n'est pas assez détaillé, n'est valable que pour le end-game et n'est pas assez à jour. Le build Tourbillon est indubitablement plus efficace avec la version primordiale de Kah Veer en jouant avec les chance de coups critiques. Votre build n'est pas assez tanky et ne fait pas assez de dommage (sauf avec l'équipement nether) . Pour ceux que ça intéresse, allez voir sur YT "Marius GetsBored"

If you have trouble with mana you can play with the "Ungifted" (if you have it) since skill dont cost mana with that SlormReaper.
Otherwise, take mana regen everywhere you can, damage sources in the early game come from the SlormReaper, in mid game you can remplace most of mana regen by mana leach, the most accesible mana leach stat is on the rare slot of the gauntlet if i remember correctly

So what about mana sustain?
hypadao  [author] 11 Jun @ 12:23am 
Ultimatum are useful to compensate if you are missing one stat, the crit damage one is kinda good.
Currently i use the ancestral chance one just because i don't have enough of that stat on my gear (yet)

What are your thoughts on an ultimatum
