SKILL ROTATION

CLEARING

Forge Hammer + Infernal Cry (to shatter it)

> do this step whenever the hammer is off cooldown

Stampede all over the place

*OPTIONAL* Shockwave Totem x4 (tanky rares or big mechanics like Abyss or Ritual)

remember to DODGE ROLL AT THE END OF Stampede (as soon as you land from the jump) - it's slightly faster than waiting for the normal recovery animation

SINGLE TARGET

1) Shockwave Totem x4

*2) Infernal Cry (only if you have Ancestral Cry, otherwise, SKIP THIS STEP)

3) Forge Hammer

4) Ancestral Cry (Infernal Cry instead, if you do not have Ancestral)

5) walk around lol (each step is a slam via Ancestral Cry)

you can also use Stampede during Step 5 but I've found that just walking while Ancestral Cry is active yields more dps

toss in War Banner whenever it's available and use Sunder once the enemy's armor is fully broken for even more dmg!

LEVELING

I have an entirely separate leveling guide (for ANY Warrior build)

if you are leveling with Forge Hammer (t9 gem, early Act 3) - links are: Rapid Attacks I (replace w II once you get) > Fire Attunement > Fist of War II / Efficiency II (cost issues)

you can use Forge Hammer the entire time to level (just throw > recall over & over) but you have the option for Stampede when you drop a t11 and link it with Crater and Branching Fissures I - it's up to you if you want to use Stampede for leveling, though.

I also recommend to level using a 2H mace or 2x 1H maces (NO SHIELD - you want dmg)

for Act 3's Venom Draught - take ele ailment threshold

for Act 4's Trial choices (monkey boss area) - take the %res for each

for Interlude Act's pillar choice - take 5% all ele res (or 3% movespeed, if u have good res)

5/23 - 0.5 Return of the Ancients Update
