QUICK NOTES ABOUT BUILD

	-Only use Trinity when you have gloves with conversion. (this will be 5th or 6th link and you drop the fire convert node then)
	-Momentum feels nice for campaign for attack speed, but melee physical or pulverise would be more damage.
	-Make sure to target behind bosses for Volcanic Fissure of Snaking, you can hit 3 times (with quality) - auto targeting is less consistent.
	-Normal Lab farming for Volcanic Fissure is about 1 in 11 runs, it might be easier to buy it if in trade league, however you can also just level as Sunder until Merc lab if you want.
	-Before you get clusters, leech is a problem for Volcanic Fissure, there is no easy to access attack leech nearby on the tree. Clever Thief is a cheap annoint that grants attack and mana leech.
	-Dealing with mana early is mostly mana potion + cannibalistic rite and mastery, life mastery for "15% skills mana cost as life instead" is also nice early. If you really don't want to deal with mana at all, consider using Lifetap until you get leech.

AXE VS MACE

	-Most of the game this build uses Axes, they have a lot more attack speed and passives are generally better than maces.
	-The rune enchant "Gain 50% of weapon physical as extra damage of each element" is a game changer however, it adds a TON of damage endgame, though this costs 4 power runes.
	-Once you get the enchant Maces become quite a bit better, but it's more of a minmax endgame build option.
