Build Guide

This is somewhat of support focused build. Geared more towards hardcore, due to providing good crowd control & having plenty of toughness for speed GR 40+.

Vengeance with seethe is definitely an optional skill, depending on how "GG" ones gear is, and how high of GR's you want to push.

Fan of knifes with bladed armor is a good choice for more survivability.

For the third gem you have a decent amount of good options. Pick the one that supports your group the best.

A couple of examples

Group needs more damage:

Bane of the trapped

Your dps is lacking:

Efficacious Toxin

Getting Rain of Vengeance damage on your shoulders and chest is a great boost to your overall dps output. While i did say this is more of a support focused build, your damage potential is still high with a properly gear Dh. Also the damage buffs provided from the build will help keep things moving along nicely in your rifts.
