Build Guide

This Build is NOT a Grift pushing build . I recommended to use it in speed grifts.

For pushing Solo use the standard build:

- Then you use the 4 tile set of Raiment.

- and instead of Exploding palm you use Breath of Heaven (Infused with Light).

- instead of Gungdo gear you put the Eye of Peshkov in the Cube.





Basic game-play strategy:

Use Dash on a monster every 4 seconds (when you use Radiance)
Use Breath of Heaven on CD
Apply/Maintain static Discharge debuff on monsters with FoT
Attack with WoTF during static discharge debuff (only in AoE, otherwise just attack with FoT for single target)
Use Epyphany (desert shroud) or serenity when required
Use mantra active when required

Skill variations:

Serenity - Ascension (alternative to Desert shroud)
Dashing Strike - Blinding speed (for HC or PE setups)
Dashing Strike - Quicksilver (cause Radiance is adequate)
Mantra of Retribution - Transgression (for Multiplayer)

Kanai´s variation

instead of Unity - Convention of Elements (for Multiplayer)

Hellfire Passive/Passive variations in order of power:

Exalted Soul (Max DPS)
Near Death Experience (not recommended, good for HC)
Beacon of Ytar (if you do not have enough IAS to maintain spirit)
or one of the 4 passives

Stat Priority:

Helm: 30% Lightning>Crit>Dex>Vit
Shoulders: Dex>Vit>15% life
Torso: x3 Sockets>15% Life
Legs: x2 Sockets
Gloves: Crit>CHD>Attack Speed
Rings: Socket>Attack Speed>Crit>CHD
Waist: 15% Life>15% FoT Dmg
Wrist: 20% Lightning damage>Crit
Boots: 12% Movement speed
Amulet: Socket>20% Lightning damage>Crit>ChD
Weapon: Vit=Life on Hit

People WITHOUT shenlongs fists:

Do not attempt the build without shenlongs set (you will do virtually no damage)
