Specializations

Variants

• Bolstering Brew increases your survivability at the expense of damage. Usually this is a tradeoff you're free to make, since the build already has a lot of damage.

Relics

There are several viable options for the relic slot, Atrocity is just one of many. The current relic can help you out in longer fights, but in shorter ones its effects aren't felt that much. Other great picks are:

• Relic of Rivers - the added Alacrity helps your CD recovery. Endurance regen food like is highly recommended with this relic.

• Relic of the Wayfinder - you can essentially sacrifice your relic slot for passive mobility in order to free up your rune slot for something else, like Rune of Superior Rune of Durability for sustain or Rune of Superior Rune of the Deadeye for higher damage.

• Relic of Isgarren - passive damage boost that's easy to maintain.

Consumables

Food

• - passive damage mitigation and great stats.

• or (whichever is cheaper) - armor ignoring damage procs that also heal you with Relic of Atrocity on top.

• - has the lifesteal bonus of Omnomberry Ghost but also increases all stats, this is both a defensive and offensive food.

• - active damage mitigation through better access to dodging.
  • - budget version.
