​​​​

Recommended Sets

2. Untouchable Mountebank (4 Set) - Great for PvP for a large life shield which improves your survival.

​​​

Best Curses

1. Lashed (PvM) - Using your primary attack gives a chance to generate three crackling whips that damage enemies.

2. Atrophied (PvP) - Continual damage causes a dark field to appear under enemies that deals damage over time.​

​

Best 5 Star Legendary Gems

1. Roiling Consequence - Increases your critical hit chance and causes critical hits to burn enemies.

2. Golden Firmament - Deals wind damage and increases evasion rating.

3. Blood-Soaked Jade - Gives a huge damage increase at high levels and a significant boost to movement speed.

4. Maw of the Deep - Used at a high rank to deal damage, gain a damage buff, draw in enemies, and stun enemies.

5. ​Starfire Shard - Useful for PvP to deal damage and stun enemies inside the Maw of the Deep legendary gem effect.​

6. Colossus Engine (PvP only) - Gives skill damage, skill range, and temporary knockback immunity (only use at rank 6+).

 

Best 2 Star Legendary Gems

1. Pain Clasp - Gives high increased damage against enemies with a continual damage effect on them.

2. Viper's Bite - Poisons enemies and triggers the damage increase on the Pain Clasp legendary gem.

3. Mother's Lament - Increases your critical hit chance and releases a blood spike that causes enemies to bleed.

4. Igneous Scorn (PvM only) - Can be combined with critical hit chance legendary gems to deal damage on critical hits.

Note: Igneous Scorn is the weakest gem here and should be the first to be replaced with a 5 star legendary gem.

​

Best Starter 1 Star Legendary Gems

1. Everlasting Torment - Deals damage over time on crits which triggers the damage increase on Pain Clasp.

2. Berserker's Eye - Increases your damage and critical hit chance but also increases your damage taken.

​3. Entropic Well - An excellent 1 star legendary gem that increases your skill damage and attack speed.

​

Best Familiars

1. Savior Duskprowler - Look for a 170+ Resilience legendary Duskprowler that has Savior which provides a cheat death. The 170+ Resilience lowers the cooldown for Savior but can be lower to make it more affordable.

2. Rare Duskprowler - Relentless Strikes is the next best skill and gives a chance to cast the Duskprowler shield twice in 3 seconds. Innervate which gives a chance at resetting the player's skill cooldown, Steel Hide which gives a chance to block, Precision which gives the shield critical hit chance, and Tenacity which lowers the cooldown of the shield are also desirable.

3. Magic Duskprowler - Duskprowler shields are hard to replace so a rare ability or magic Duskprowler is the budget option.

​

Regular Gems

Prioritize Tourmalines for added damage in red sockets and Citrines for Potency which increases harmful effects durations in yellow sockets. You should use your highest refinement Aquamarines and Sapphires which give increased armor and armor penetration in blue sockets. Refinement from a gem increases the main stats of the piece of equipment the gem is socketed in. You can optionally combine all of your Rubies which give life and Topazes which give resistances into one Ruby and one Topaz and socket one of each in your equipment for a higher level of refinement.​

​

Gem Notes

The Colossus Engine legendary gem does nicely for PvP on this build but requires the gem to be about level 6 before it's worth using. Viper's Bite and Everlasting Torment deal continual damage which trigger the damage increase on the Pain Clasp legendary gem. Golden Firmament is a strong new 5 star gem that has wind damage, increased evasion, and triggers Firestorms when mixed with burning damage. Roiling Consequence and Mother's Lament both give increased critical hit chance and work well with Igneous Scorn and Everlasting Torment which deal damage on critical hits. Roiling Consequence and Mother's Lament also work well with Colossus Engine in PvP which has the same cooldowns. You should also consider rolling critical hit damage on every piece of gear with Reforge Stones when using critical hit gems.​
