====================================================================================================================
This POB is part of Zizaran's 3.14 Build week
This is not meant to be a guide, but simply a guideline of what items Ziz will be using to play the build
This build is very budget friendly and a very good mapper, but it will struggle on single-target on bosses and T16 map bosses without good investment
It is VERY good for ultimatums
====================================================================================================================
General tips
====================================================================================================================
This build does NOT do bleeding damage
Spellslinger levels are important for reservation
Enduring Cry on Left Click once you have Call to Arms
You can drop these nodes/Enduring Cry for an extra gem socket, but the healing can be nice in boss encounters
Lifetap on Shield Charge is to make keeping Corrupting Fever up easier
If you are okay with attacking constantly/recasting Corrupting Fever, you can drop this for a spare socket to add Tempest Shield to Cast When Damage Taken
Your DPS is combined from Exsanguinate + Corrupting Fever, and your gladiator explosions get a lot of scaling on this build
====================================================================================================================
