Gameplay

The configuration

This setup is stored as a complete build — gear, skills, runes and all four cube slots work together and are not assembled from individual statistics.

  • Set: no class set — Legacy gem build
  • Rating: tier C across all classes
  • Kanai's Cube: Wizardspike, Frostburn, Halo of Karini, Strongarm Bracers
  • Skills: Shock Pulse (Piercing Orb), Arcane Orb (Frozen Orb), Teleport (Reversal), Storm Armor (Shocking Aspect), Black Hole (Spellsteal), Magic Weapon (Deflection)
  • Passives: Power Hungry, Galvanizing Ward, Illusionist, Elemental Exposure
  • Variants available: GR push, Speed farming, Torment 16 / Nephalem rifts
Use the variant switcher above to move between the versions. What changes between them is spelled out below — read it before you rebuild.

How the variants differ

Measured against the push version. Anything not listed here stays the same:

  • Speed farming: swaps in skills Teleport (Calamity), Storm Armor (Scramble); gems Zei's Stone of Vengeance.
  • Torment 16 / Nephalem rifts: swaps in skills Shock Pulse (Power Affinity), Teleport (Calamity), Storm Armor (Power of the Storm), Familiar (Arcanot); cube Aether Walker, Krelm's Buff Belt; gems Zei's Stone of Vengeance, Boon of the Hoarder.

Sockets and gems

The 3 legendary gems (Bane of the Stricken, Bane of the Trapped, Legacy of Dreams) belong in the jewellery slots — that is the only place their rank counts, and the only place they keep growing when you upgrade after a Greater Rift.

The remaining 7 sockets are filled with Topaz: the multiplier already comes from the set and the legendary powers, so one more base stat does more there than another effect would.

On the season theme

Shades of the Nephalem spawns a shadow clone of your class at every shrine and pylon that fights along for one minute. Activate shrines inside the pull, not on the way there. The fourth cube slot is already filled in every variant above.
