Krysbin's Sentence

All items should be ancient for maximum effect. All items listed as required are required. All items listed as recommended can be changed based on your preferences. Make sure weapon + offhand have Essence as secondary stats.

Pain Enhancer can be swapped for gem of your choice, however, it scales very well with LoN, Reilana, and Trag bonuses, as well as in density, as this is a melee build.

Blood is Power can be swapped in for Final Service if playing Softcore
