bleepbloopsify's Notes
I tried raider, but impale is phys, so that didn't make much sense.
I tried Champion, but "The Impaler" caps at 5 impales, so getting sources of +impale didn't make much sense to me either.
Slayer makes a lot more sense, especially with its base crit and the buff to Kitava's Feast (which has doodoo base crit, if I'm not mistaken)
I chose berserker because it has a lot of easy damage up front.
This POB has theoretically 2.5M DPS, but I think it'll probably average much less than that. I'm relying on Impaler to help my clear (does melee splash apply impale damage?)
I plan to run this 70-90, and then swap into a Farrul's Fur in order to start flickering without Terminus Est (and once I'm there, if The Impaler really does work with this setup, I'll probably just craft a thicc phys weapon and keep going, otherwise I will probably swap to MF or something and run harbinger / essence on T10s with a 2 voidstone setup.
Any advice? ChatGPT suggests that I play Juggernaut instead of Berserker, as its MUCH tankier, but I think it's advice is outdated (sadge).
I'm torn between Slayer and Berserker :)
Edit: wanted to note that the POB is level 70, so definitely a lot of space for points, but wanted a smooth leaguestarter
