Looking over this build and I really like it. Can you tell me though, why the 4 extra points into Smite’s Panacea? You have Desperate Measures which eliminates any cleansing so it seems those points are wasted. Am I missing something?

Thats ONLY if you have 0 mana.
I believe… But either way if not you can place the points into any other spot you like :0

Great to see a build like this. I’ve been working on making forge strike work and this is my version. Pretty much can lunge in, cast forge strike a few times and reversal and then repeat. Also use rive for mana if needed. Just focused on a lot of crit multi/armor/healing and recently attunement. I can usually cast all the forge strikes needed before out of mana and on bosses can kinda of just do rive and forge strike at the same time. I also have eye of reen in offhand but cant get it to show on build planner.

Ah, gothca. I’ll have to watch that and see. Thanks!
