Quick question (and sorry if it's been asked before): why do you take unwavering stance in your high level passive tree, but not iron reflexes?

Doesn't that passive remove all chance to evade?

It does, but one of the key aspects of this build is having high damage mitigation, so you don't mind getting hit. You will either block or mitigate it with armour and a huge life pool. Meanwhile, getting stunlocked is a real threat while doing bosses, and Unwavering stance completely eliminates that threat.

First of all, thank you for that build. Love it !

I'm trying it and it's doing the job pretty well until now (mercy mid act1). I'm sure it will be great by the end game. But two questions :
- leap slam seems really slow and dangerous. Maybe we can link fortify with another skil ?
- why no blood rage ? that could give an insane speed bonus even without frenzy nodes.

Thanks for the answer! I will wait a bit before I take Unwavering Stance, seeing I am currently wearing alot of evasion gear (only lvl 31 atm) and I still have 50% chance to evade.

Just use swords and Whirling Blades to procc fortify. I also like it way more than leap slam and it also increases your clear speed. You have to change the mace nodes into sword nodes though.

Just a fast question about this build:

How viable u see this build for hc character played by semibeginner?

Is there any way to include Cwdt combo this build or should I be good enought to manual cast everything?


Testing this currently on SC! What I could think to change myself is maybe put immortal call into lvl2 cwdt gem and also tempest shield triggering there (or is just bad?) and also changing leap to flame dash which I have started to like. The build seems to be defensively great in a way that it don't need much "fancy" combos but a little bit many buttons are there :)
