Thanks to Deepest Tower, After-shock + Heavy stun, my smith now deals 30 million damage burst!

10

The build utilizes Seismic Cry + Rolling Slam Totems to stun the boss as fast as possible. My +6 and +7 melee skill from my hammers allow my totems to deal very good damage.

Once boss is heavy-stunned, I use Seismic Cry to generate 30 rage + aftershock, infernal cry to consume 10 rage for damage amp on next 2 Rolling Slam. With Deepest tower + low-life nodes, I can do insane damage off of heavy-stun.

Also, everything is fire damage, because avatar of fire! This allows me to run some efficient fire penetration nodes and utilize weapon's elemental damage on hit + % elemental damage affix to boost all of my damage across the board. This does mean I miss out on the physical damage support gems though. But that gets made up for by the plentiful of fire gems.

My biggest room for improvement in this build is probably heavy-stunning sooner. If anyone knows how I can improve my stun build-up with minimal damage loss (I don't mind losing some totem damage), greatly appreciate it!

"""one shot"""

Quite nice for a non meta build. I think people are too used to seeing those one hit KOs lol.

Of course it needs to be further optimized and setting up takes too long but props to you for not goingΒ  for the traditional bleeding/lightning current meta.

30 million damage and burst over 40 seconds lmfao. You gotta do something other than wait for heavy stun cause holy that just lowers your dps immensely. Your tooltip might look good but if your overall combo requires you to Wait 40 seconds for the boss to be heavy stunned then your dps is far lower than you think lol. A one shot after 40 seconds is hilarious

Play my setup instead. Around a 20-23 second xesht kill https://youtu.be/00OSnZSlwvo?si=tGY88rBLnvdAHWav Also rolling slam totems. I have gotten it down to a 17 second kill with optimal play (better rage uptime etc)

Avatar of fire is just inefficient for damage, ur better off playing Phys cause Phys has better support gems and armour break is very easy to get. And broken armour makes the boss take 20% inc physical.

Double dps and better setup, tankier cause 87% block warbringer, and better mapping clear from corrupted cry warcry pops and better bossing dps

A 40 second long burst window?

"one shot" - proceeds to gang up on the boss, him and his rolling slam dudes
