Hi ComradeSerge,

I'm currently following this build (only at act 4 normal yet due to family, but it's working great so far). When I look at your initial post, however, I have some questions:

1. You are using Chaos Golem. That's an int skill gem and according to the wiki, it requires 146 int at level 17. The tree gives you 64 intelligence added to the Duelist's starting 14. That's only 78. Doesn't this mean you will need a great amount of int on your gear to use this gem, or is this a mistype and should be the Flame Golem? I just picked up the Chaos Golem gem as a reward in act 4, but found that I couldn't use it with the requirement of 86 at level 3 or something. Could you clarify and also elaborate on your reasoning for the Golem choice?

2. There are indeed a lot of skills specified in the build, and you already answered a few posts above that Enduring Cry was only used for Atziri, but from what I understand now with the Tempest Shield change, you need Chaos Golem, Blood Rage, Tempest Shield, Main attack, Immortal Call, Vaal Molten Shell, Warlord's Mark and Leap Slam as your activated skills, and the two auras as one-time casts, correct? That's a total of 8 activated skills, which means you have to shuffle your skills during active play if you have forced movement on your left mouse button - or is the Golem tanky enough to stay alive through several zones? It would be super to know if there are any other skills you are using only for certain content, or how you are shuffling the skills in your build.

3. The gear you link to seems to have the old setup with Infernal Blow from patch 1.3. Is this correct or are you still using Infernal Blow in 2.0?


Thank you beforehand!

EDIT: I forgot Warlord's Mark, which increases the active skills to 8.
