Smith of kativa build - how do I do bosses without needed a second weapon set? Would appreciate any reference builds :)
After not being nearly tanky enough using a two handed mace normally I finally made the switch to a two handed mace and shield, but now bosses are significantly harder, and I struggle on DPS when I don’t have enough targets to bone shatter. I’m assuming the damage should come from perfect strike so should I be investing points in a fire damage and penetration or am I wasting my time trying to make it work with one weapon set?

There are a few ways, but pure damage it has to be perfect strike.
Also I found one build with sunder but I have no idea when I’m supposed to use it in a boss fight
I use perfect strike build focus on ignite and fire damage and infernal warcry with orb of storm to stack rage. So far the most comfortable, straight forward for me at least
Hey I recommend focusing on adding some rage into your kit and a way to armour break and consume armour break.
That way on a boss you can do your regular stun build up + armour break.
You can consume armour break + rage and put out some nasty numbers with shield bash / sunder / and other big single hit skills.
The idea is to take advantage of increased damage nodes during "heavy stun" and "Armour break" and your supports. (Also armour break having a huge natural damage increase)
Hello brother,i suggest you check you check Carnarius build Will_Smith.You leap slam amd 1 shot packs and clear maps eith 1 skill then you change you weapons to weapon swap 2 and one or two shot bosses with perfect strike without needing to buy two more weapons.I m level 91 and this build saved 0.2 for me.Gl Hf brother
I use default attack on bosses
Fire pen is great for perfect strike yes. You can get that from rubies also. Flammability can help too along with internal cry before perfect strike with the enraged warcry support. Use solar orb or orb of storms with font of rage to build up rage at the start of a boss fight. Then warcry, flammability then perfect strike for huge amount of damage. Consider duel wielding two handers for much more damage also. This is my current setup and it hits for around 2m perfect strike on bosses.
You can also use a second weapon set on the passive tree for more damage and just manually swap them over before bosses so you don't need multiple weapons.
Get The Deepest Tower and don't worry about weapon swapping. With the required passives it is a 400% damage increase.
Leap slam with brink to prime to stun, boneshatter with armor break to heavy stun and then supercharged slam the boy to death.
Bossing is pretty easy this way
