Breakpoints:147 attack speed for 7 frame attack

Should I use Speed Calculator to calculate how much IAS I need on items with Wolf Stance on?

Loving the build, takes me back to the old days of d2 barb madness.

One question: why do you stop leveling iron spiral at 6?

Thanks for the guide!

At level 6 iron spiral cooldown is 0 seconds. You can max it tho if you want more lightning damage tho but ita kinda minor.

Been following this guide for my first character and doing well. Any tips on playing deathgaze? I like axes compared to sword. Nice guide!

just switch weapons to axes. 6 points to deathgaze instead of iron spiral. use thunderslam ocasionally when its up to stun monsters and just deathgaze monsters to death.

well there is not best way or better way to do it. you can stack elemental damage or physical damage or crushing blow or basically any damage modifier.
