Rat's NestAwesome option for most crit builds, as well as this one. Crit chance, attack and movement speed are all extremely useful stats for us.
Body Armour
Belly of The BeastGreat defensive chest that boosts our life pool and resistances. Flask life recovery rate is also nice.
Gloves
Slink GlovesLook for Evasion gloves with at least +60 to maximum life and high resistances. Attack speed is very good on gloves as well – you can find gloves with it or craft it with masters.
Boots
Kaom's RootsGreat boots for the build – provides high life and immunity to stuns.
Ideally look for +1 to frenzy charges corruption or increased movement speed corruption but those are luxuries.
Left Ring
Two-Stone RingLook for rings with at least 30% increased Elemental damage with weapons (important mod), high life and resistances. Attack speed is very nice bonus.
If you have capped resistances, disregard them on the ring and just go for ring with elemental damage, high life and attack speed.
Amulet
Agate AmuletLook for amulet with elemental damage with weapons, high life, and global critical multiplier.
Ideally if you can find amulet with +1 to maximum frenzy charges corruption but that’s a luxury.
Belt
Leather BeltLook for Leather belt base with elemental damage with weapons, at least 80 life and as high resistances as you can find.
1Hand Weapon
Gemini ClawLook for claw with as high Physical dps as you can find (Good baseline would be ~300 pDps). It should also have some critical strike chance – master-crafted one works but try to find one with higher crit.
Offhand
LycosidaePretty important unique for the build – this shield lets us ignore accuracy and always land our hits on enemies.
Jewel
Jewel SetupLook for following stats on your jewels:
1.) Increased maximum life
2.) Increased melee damage
3.) Increased area damage
4.) Increased attack speed with claws
5.) Resistances if you need them
