MOST COMMON ASKED QUESTION: "Why DEAD IRON belt?". Well, because our weapon *Blade of the tribes has following secondary: "WAR CRY and Threatning shout now CAUSE and Avalance and Earthquake". And Since Dead Iron roll's a secondary free stat with up to 200 % Avalanche damage, then why not use it?". We ran simulations in d3planner, and this IS the best choice.

Error pointed out multiple times in the comments.
Lol again.
WTS eyes. There is a part in this guide with big orange letters, where it's described why this belt is being used despite the fact that ground stomp isn't.
Since I can't find anything in the comments about it. Why is there All resist on the pants when you cant get it for the pants?
I'm wondering about the same thing as Christhereaper13. I don't have Resist all option on boots and pants when enchanting. Only armor or Life per Second.
Also I found out that I have no need for animosity, what would be a good alternative?
Thank you for the suggestion, it does seem like the best alternative. I'm definitely using nerves of steel, since I'm playing a HC character.
I am surprised people are saying they don't need animosity. Without the bonus fury gain and bonus fury I find it difficult to get 100% reduced leap cooldown.
Was wondering if anyone could answer a quick question of mine, so I've got an ancient Shoulder piece that has both: Chance to deal 13% Area Damage on Hit and Increases Earthquake Damage by 10%. Which of the two is a stronger stat, to keep? Would I reroll for Vit, or CDR?
Another question is for my Weapon, I managed to get lucky enough and get an Ancient Blade of the Tribes:
It rolled 3710.9 dps (3091-3656 Damage)
1629-2047 Cold Damage
1415 Strength
1415 Vitality
33,775 Life per hit
Increase Earthquake damage by 190%
Increase Fury by 24
and I put a socket in it with Gift.
Question is, we dont really hit much correct? Unless earthquakes count as hits. Do I keep that LPH stat or reroll for %Damage?
Hi Guys!
Why using animosity? Because the fury is all the time full, i guess.
Thank´s!
Hugs,
Definitely do not keep LPH. I would definitely get %damage in your situation. CDR or life per fury would be alternatives if you are locked into %damage already. I can't answer definitively without your battle tag and running simulators about which is better but because we get so much additive skill damage on our weapon, it devalues additive skill damage on shoulders / chest. Personally I go with toughness on chest and with CDR on shoulders. Don't think there is a "right" answer there.
I just did grift 70 like 5 minutes ago and it was on the leaderboard? Maybe you are in a different region though so I don't know (I am NA). When comparing gear its best to use something like d3planner to ensure you are seeing the whole picture. Secondary stats like +max fury and the oft overlooked cooldown reduction make huge impacts on your performance as a solo leapquake.

When you have a lot of +fury you will not be at max fury from 3 leaps anymore. Frequently neither threatening shout nor war cry will be up so you can't fill your fury without the bonus from animosity. More fury means more cooldown reduction when boulder tossing to reset leap. If you are already resetting leap instantly then you can definitely move to another passive I would suggest Brawler or Nerves of Steel. I know I say this every post but there really isnt a right answer; I just beat 70 5 minutes ago with no ruthless because i mistook relentless on my neck (LOL)
Edit: Used wow skill names instead of Diablo.
So, after all that discussion, this build is really viable for 85+ solo ?
I guess we will be 1 hitted by almost everything.
Thanks in advance ! I really enjoyed it, I hate Raekor and WW builds.
This is more "pure" gameplay for Diablo.
Ok, Thank´s a lot!
Somebody have a battle.tag and can post it here?
Because i don´t knhow what stats need to roll in the itens..
Somebody can help me, please?
Thank´s again!
I am NA and will PM you my battle tag if you want some help with rerolling.
Nice!
Thank´s!
If i rolling my itens the same as yours, is it ok? Or have some item that i need roll something diferent?
Thank´s again,
I really apreciated your help!
This build definitely has high GRift potential, without an ancient weapon I'm doing 70 solos. Some have already cleared 74+ with it. I find it hard to believe that some folks have 100% leap uptime without animosity as well but I suppose with high CDR its possible. All in all my favorite build of the season although it will be behind Raekhor by a few GRs.
