Leap Slam ~ Momentum ~ Faster Attacks Blood and Sand Vulnerability // Additional Notes & Known Issues // - PoB is removing some equipment on leveling loadouts and assigning random skills as main skill - swap Fortify for Brutality (bought from Act 4 Petarus and Vanja) after allocating Fortitude in Cruel Lab - use Frostblink, War Banner, Automation ~ Blood Rage, Cast when Damage Taken ~ Molten Shell when sockets permit - make sure to transition into low-life and use Petrified Blood before using Bloodthirst as fifth link (recommended to do around Yellow Maps after Uber Lab and 5000+ life) - vendor 2H Axe + Rare Rustic Sash + Blacksmith's Whetstone for guaranteed weapon upgrade in campaign - prioritize modifiers that give physical damage, attack speed, move speed, life, and resists - make sure helmet has higher armor than evasion to get immunity to bleed from armor/evasion mastery - make sure chest has no life modifier if using life mastery - use Major Soul of Lunaris and Minor Soul of Ryslatha for the Pantheon
