Jaamon's Notes

>>> Prepared by Jaamon (Don't forget to join my discord.That's where i chat with people / https://discord.gg/GaVvd7znTH) <<< ********** This is a Marauder-Chieftain build.You can easily level with this at a new league with Zero Budget.Build is overall very cheap compared to other builds. ********** ********** Check the equipment and talent trees depending on the progress you are at. ********** BLS means Brutus' Lead Sprinkler.(Our weapon for this build) !!!! NOTE:You cannot start leveling as Ancestral Warchief totems because it is a level 28 gem. !!!! >>> I highly advise you to do the whole leveling as melee build(Earthquake is the best) then buy Tukohama's Fortress Shield(provides +1 max totems) and start playing as totems.Otherwise you can only summon 2 totems which is not very good.But you can level like that if you want. I prepared the leveling tree as if you're leveling as Earthquake until you equip Tukohama's Fortress shield. <<< After lvl 28(it can also be a little higher level, it doesn't matter), you are expected to buy Brutus lead sprinkler so the leveling trees are according to that. I also prepared a single leveling tree for those who want to level without BLS weapon.(For some reason) > Detailed gem links are in "Skills" section < 3.15 Update: Seismic cry got nerfed so leveling as slam now has less DPS.Consider switching to totems while leveling.That's up to you.Or try other skills like Cyclone. If you can't find any gems, you can buy those at Act 3-Library or Act 6 Town. --- ACT 1 --- / You can buy Limbsplit unique axe for easy leveling until lvl 28.It's 1 chaos even at league start. Kill Hillock.Take Ground Slam and start leveling with that.I recommend using a 2-handed melee weapon that has some "physical mods" on it. Read the gem's details for suited weapons.Also link Ruthless to it. Get Chance to Bleed and link that to Ground Slam.(3-link now) Get War Banner , Ancestral Protector,Steelskin,Blood and Sand and Dash at lvl 4. Use Steelskin on your left-mouse button so it casts automatically. Get Maim at lvl 8.Replace Chance to Bleed with Maim.(Keep using both if you have 4-link) Get Intimidating Cry at lvl 10. --- ACT 2 --- Get Herald of Purity at lvl 16. Get Melee Physical Damage,Elemental Damage with Attacks at lvl 18.(We need Elemental damage with attacks for later use,just level that on 2nd weapon slot) --- ACT 3 --- Get Pride at lvl 24.(If you can afford buying Brutus' Lead Sprinkler at lvl 28, you can skip Pride and buy Anger instead.) Get Earthquake and Ancestral Warchief at lvl 28.Start using Earthquake at 31 once you get Less Duration . Get Fortify,Pulverise,Less Duration and Second Wind at lvl 31.(Act 3 Library NPC sells all gems) After level 28, if you still haven't bought Brutus' Lead Sprinkler, continue playing as physical build. (Pride aura,melee physical support etc. and keep using weapons that has physical mods.Gems are already in "Skills" section) --- ACT 4 --- Get Fist of War at lvl 38.You can use this once you buy a 5-link body armour later on.(Level 50+) --- ACT 5-10 --- No more new gems after Act 5. You should farm currency at Act 9 Blood Aqueduct or just rush for maps and farm enough to buy Tukohama's Fortress so you can start playing as totems. Good luck!
