Intro & build description
Bloodseeker is a unique claw that not a lot of people are using, but in reality, it can be a great item to make your build around. With the instant leech mod, this claw allows us to become almost immortal if there is something to leech life from.
Build Pros

- Very fast clearspeed, can use Whirling Blades to move around
- 100% hit chance due to Lycosidae
- Great as a league starter build
Build Cons
- Susceptible to one-shots

Starkonja's HeadGreat helm for most attack builds providing us with life, attack speed and crit.
Body Armour
LoreweaveLoreweave is great, balanced option for the build providing offense and defense.
Gloves
TombfistLook for Tombfist with 2 abyssal sockets.
Put Abyss jewels with life, critical strike multiplier, physical damage to attacks in these sockets.
Boots
Rare BootsLook for boots with high life and resistances. Movement speed could be nice bonus but it’s not necessary since we move around with Whirling Blades most of the time.
Also you should try to get “Adds 1-160 lightning damage if you haven’t killed recently” enchant from the Uber Lab.
Left Ring
Rare RingLook for rare ring with life and resistances. Elemental damage with attacks is great bonus but can be expensive.
Amulet
Rare Elder AmuletAs an amulet we should be looking for rare Elder amulet with 2 options:
Gain x% of Non-Chaos Damage as extra Chaos Damage”
and
Gain x% of Physical Damage as Extra Fire Damage
If you could get critical strike multiplier on top of these 2 mods, it would be absolutely insane, but the 2 mods are extremely strong even without the multiplier.
If you cannot get these 2 mods together, go for the first one – it’s still really strong.
Offhand
LycosidaeAlso a must-have for the build: this shield makes sure we always hit enemies which is extremely important for crit builds.
Bloodseeker and this shield are 2 things that you should be focusing on getting first.
Jewel
Watcher's EyeLook for Watcher’s Eye with “Gain x% of Physical Damage as Extra Lightning Damage while affected by Wrath” mod.
Jewel
Build's JewelsIdeally look for jewels with 2 critical strike multiplier mods and increased maximum life.
Jewel could look like this:
1.) Increased maximum life
2.) %to global critical strike multiplier
3.) %to critical strike multiplier with one-handed weapons
4.) another damage mod / attributes / resistances
Flask
Flask Setup1.) Silver Flask with freeze removal
2.) Sulphur Flask with bleed removal
3.) Atziri’s Promise
4.) Taste of Hate
5.) Lion’s Roar / Sin’s Rebirth (expensive option)
what leveling items i should use? big thanks for the build!
Ideally – Tabula, Goldrim, Wake of Destruction. On weapon look for the most damage you can get.
Hi,
why dont u take Heartseeker in the passive tree?
Not worth the 4 point investment.
Which are the best Pantheons for this build?
Solaris and Tukohama?
