Ubers

Mentioning Mid-Early (<125) ubers, since got only 2 build variants till then. Ubers post 125 depend on what build you have chosen.
Whirlpool combo/Charged Strike - Just throw whirlpool and if you can sustain mana then eq/charged stirkes b/w those whirlpools for all ubers.
Death Blossom - Just spam db, use SoV reanimates to distract
Will be mentioning only those ubers which are a bit different

Akarat - Might have to come back after some gear upgrades

Cathedral of Vanity - Stay right behind the pillar protecting you from the beam when you enter. Atack the nuns for LoMA. Attack Totem when its spell is on CD. Dont go to far in in the room

Judgement Day - Start with Imperius, try sticking edyryms in corridors and other spare rooms. Malthael is easy

Teganze - PitA, Dodge the balls

Kabraxis - BIgger PitA, tbh I myself would just mule the charm or buy it. Need to be constantly moving to avoid Balefire. Keep hitting in b/w. Soulstealer

The Meme is Alive

Now the build is in your hands
Twist it, Improve it and lets see what you can kill with it. looks at sam and deim
Hoping to soon see threads of SwordZon Kills

Take what you can, Give nothing back !

Appreciate the effort but you’re basically playing an anemic build for the sake of using a sword.

Advice: if you really wanna go down the memezon rabbit hole, find an ethereal battlemaiden and a good multi-hitter relic like Cherubim or DJ. No sword is worth giving up that 300+ EWD

Appreciate the effort

Ty

you’re basically playing an anemic build for the sake of using a sword.

Yes cuz ive seen the swordzon meme being mentioned almost ever since i joined the median community and i got this chance in 2.2 to actually make it real. TY team for all the changes

Advice: if you really wanna go down the memezon rabbit hole, find an ethereal battlemaiden and a good multi-hitter relic like Cherubim or DJ. No sword is worth giving up that 300+ EWD

ngl that does seem appealing, but that would come as some another meme build (not swordzon)
Will probably do that too someday in future.....currently need to focus irl
Ty for the feedback and wonderful suggestion

Happy Farming
