Build Guide

Objective: To immobilize enemies and party damage boost.

5/29: THIS IS MY FINAL BUILD for season 10, WD-support.

The beauty of this build is that you alone as the support can help your party even with low paragon levels(700 to 900) to hit 80 to 85 GRs

I'm just an average player and my highest with this build is 94 with a (Zmonk, Wizard and WD Spirit Bomb). Maybe i haven't got a chance to play with the MASTERs, but I believe this build can also hit those 100s...

SUMMARY: Your blocking is what keeps you TANKY, You Crowd Control is crazy fun, and your Damage Boosters is pretty good.

OPTIONAL: Tiklandian Visage(Cube) + Horrify - Frightening Aspect, this is also very tanky and crowd control is crazy...

But my choice for now is Leoric's(CUBE) and SLAM DANCE..

That would be all. Thank you so much for viewing my build.

My D3 Profile is M0BY#11277, you can add me if you want so we can play together soon:)

5/28: I made some small changes for big damage boost to allies. I put OCULUS for OBISIDIAN, and LEORIC's (CUBE) + SLAM DANCE.

5th passive on HellFire amulet is rush of essence for max MANA

Build also goes well with zBarb or Zmonk.... 4man = 2 support and 2 DPS in any class.

Key factors:

DAMAGE BOOSTERS:

1. MASS of Confusion + Last breath + Overwhelming Desire.

2. Gems - Gogok and Toxin.

3. Strong Arm Bracers.

4. SLAM DANCE + Leoric's on CUBE for more CDR

DEFENSE:

1. BLOCKING with Coven's Shield, Justice Lantern and Blood brother on cube will have a huge amount of damage reduction

2. Helltooh 4pc

3. The Skills and Passives are setup for defensive.

4. Hunt Poison Spirit + Bad Medicine to reduce your damage

CROWD CONTROL:

This is my favorite part. You can Pull, knockback, freeze, chill, slow, charmed, blind and control them to do less damage to your team.

Mass Confusion - Charmed + Damage

Piranhas Wave of Mutilation for Knockback + Damage

Hex to pull + damage

Thank you for viewing my build, please feel free to comment - maybe you can improve it

Cheers!!!
