Well your AoE choices are (I think) Ground slam, Leap slam, Sweep, or Infernal Blow w/ Melee Splash.

Infernal blow/melee splash might be the most fun, although potentially the most suicidal as well (shorter range etc). AFAIK they all play out fairly similarly. Of interest, with the new "Avatar of Fire" keystone and infernal blow I think you get 100% phys to fire conversion if you wish to attempt to scale burn damage or w/e. Might be fun.

that sounds really interesting, I'll check that out more and prepare a build and gear choices. ^_^

thanks for the help and I'm open to any 2H badass builds others might have.

So I decided I'm going to make my triumphant return. I used to play A LOT, back maybe 6+ months ago, I was mostly a LA Ranger and an EK Witch on hardcore. I'm going to play Nemesis so I'll be poor again, (all my wealth is in hardcore ~_~).

I'm looking around and seeing that Melee is viable now, so I'd like to play some sort of 2H face smasher class. Are there any viable builds for what I'm looking for?


2H Spectral Throw is the FotM so you're in luck. Unless you mean true 2H facesmash in which case you would probably just modify a ST tree a bit. (I can do this for you if you would like.)


Is true 2H melee viable or will I be on a fool's errand? When I played melee was basically suicide. Dual wield ele cleave started to come up and I quit just after the patch came out that made that build viable.

Keep in mind I will be poor, my 30-40 exalts worth of currency, gear, maps, etc., will be rotting in hardcore, but at the same time it might be fun to start fresh again. :D~

I guess my first toon back should be a viable cheap build for which I can begin to accumulate wealth again to build more 'niche' characters. I really, really would like to play true 2H facesmash though if it's possible.


I think it should work. I'll throw you together a tree.


Edit: So I think you would do Double Strike + Melee Splash + Blood Magic + Life Leech as a 4L, Then add Faster Attacks and Added Fire Damage for 5L/6L.
You'll probably run Purity and either Hatred/Haste as auras.

I just logged on after a 6 month break or so. My main was a lvl 79 LA duelist. Got 6L tri ele thicket bow and chest, and I used the old build with 3-4 auras and a bunch of attackspeed/shock. Now that auras are so expensive, is there any point of continuing down this path? I've got 96 skillpoints to allocate, and I guess I could just go melee or something.. Is there any way to salvage my duelist as is (Since I much prefer the ranged LA type)? Its in standard league, name is Wunkadunk.

If the duelist is not salvageable, I've got an EK+bear trap templar at like 65 that I could also play if thats viable..

I think this tree is pretty potent if you want to go the pure fire Infernal blow route.
I don't know exactly what supports work with the explosion (chance to ignite? ele proli?), but either way, this tree is pretty solid.

Woo! I just got to 65 with my Shadow trapper. Thanks to Varanice and r.evo for their suggestions. I think trapper is a pretty good starting build because you're pretty gear independent. The downside is that when you can't avoid damage (I'm looking at you, unique croakers) it can be pretty rough. It's also not a very fast method, as you often need to kite and round up enemies as well as wait for the traps to refill. It took me about 4 days total, although I took the scenic route.

So moving on to Scion, who I am making a bowman, I'm not sure I want to play another "omg, run for your life" character just now. It definitely seems like characters that can stand still and mow down packs are going to be more efficient than ones that are constantly avoiding contact. Maybe I'll ask for help on it later. I am making it my goal to complete the Domination League challenges, so if you have any fun/quick build suggestions, let me know.
I'm not stupid, a marauder just shot my brain.

and then you set off an infernal blow onto a reflect elemental and kill yourself ^_^

I'd suggest playing a leap slam build personally if you're interested in face rushing.

If you would like an invite to the guild it is far more effective to message one of the officers.

Most of us do, but I didn't want to assume you did and it be broken like when I linked account names. I'm pretty sure Echelontee does too.

I don't because someone took it T_T so I have to use other words with it or other names altogether.


Is there any improvements or point reductions I can do to this build? It is for my future wander, when I'm this far in the tree I should be set up with BM gems and the like.

id drop a +15% armor node and get elemental adaptation

id actually drop both of them, drop diamond skin eventually, drop the str node next to diamond skin, and connect the armour mastery by the str node there

this being late game

then u could use those 2 extra nodes to get shaper (even if u dont want the mana regen its 1% life regen)
or better might be grabbing the 12% life and .4% regen at scion

not that its even worth time theorizing 110 points lol
