Notes

Build by: youtube.com/@soropoe
-------------------------------------------

Video Guide: https://youtu.be/VxPTueLI63I
Update: POB was not calculating weapon's implicit elemental damage so added item from the game and found it had 22M missing damage.

---------------

Elemental Ailment Immune,
Instant Leech, 
Ignores monster resistances, 
spell suppress capped, 
all content viable (including T17 and Uber farming),
can run most map mods
designed for 40/40 challenge completion

Blind is from a Tattoo of Tasalio Warrior (apply anywhere in passive tree)
Resistance capping: Chaos res minimum is 20%, PLEASE CAP YOUR ELEMENTAL RES!! (can use tattoos to fix resistances)
Spell Suppress capping: Can use Tattoo of the Ramako Shaman to cap that as well
Vaal Arctic Armour ONLY (no Arctic armour) / Or use Vaal Haste

Traversing with Ralakesh - Hop Hop Hop...

Build can also be played with: Molten Strike, Frost Blades (most of the strike skills)
For even MORE single target damage: Turn a green socket from body armour to white with Omen of Blanching, then swap lightning strike to molten strike. 

If the Banishing Blade Sword went up in price, you can use Rakiata's dance.

-------------

Worst T17/map mods:
area contains runes of searing exarch
cannot leech

Tested cannot regen and less recovery mods and no issues.
But weakness is damage over time when not leeching/hitting something

---------------

Defensively:
Evasion Stacking
6 endurance charges - Pure physical damage reduction (not armour), elemental damage reduction
Instant Leech + Overleech
Spell Suppress Capped
High effect of Sap (you take less damage from the target)

Two handed weapons (except staves) cannot compete with shield based builds for defenses, so if you have a serious skill issue, 
use claw + svalinn and exchange the 2 handed passive points for shield nodes. THIS REDUCES DAMAGE SEVERELY. 

I prefer to kill mosters before they hit me. So my builds will always be focussed on damage + attack/cast speed with decent defences (enough to facetank offscreen / unjust hits).
