Build:Hex Musician

Showcase


With mace style can easily reach 150 DPS and with sword or axe styles have a nice DPS with Hex.

The defenses are fantastic just not for lightning.

The weak spot of that build is that none of the weapon styles are physical or impact orientated and that not work very well with any style.

Weapon Styles
this build works with any of the one hand weapon styles just changing the skills on slot 1, 2 and 3. The main curses come from the 2 totems and strike then, but you can use the weapon to curse or do damage. As example will show 3 weapon styles:

Sword
Hex spec using with high DPS with Torment and Rupture.
 * note: The Steel Sabre must have Rainbow Hex to inflict Hexes in this combo.

Mace
Has DPS with melee strike can get over 150 decay DPS with buffs.

Axe
Hybrid version with can have 4 curses with the axe and for some reason I think will be the best one because of the generic buff that give 20% generic DPS on Scalp Collector.

Off-Hand
I prefer to use shield to get more defense since already have 3 skills on any weapon style, but this build really works nice with guns and daggers(for mace style) too.

Buffs
You can choose to use Blood sigil or Rupture(if you choose Rupture I recommend play with a friend with Blood Sigil Link build Blood Assassin)for that build and any of then will work really nice and some fantastic combo are:

Give a huge bonus to 3 elemental damages with Gift of Blood and Immolate. This will open to use Ring of Fire and that really will boost your DPS.

That will conjure 2 spells at the same time Lightning Strike and Blood Turret.

Nice boost to defenses and area damage with Welkin Reverberation or Ghost Reverberation.
