Great Old One's Ward
dext amulet
Grants level 20 Thirst for Blood skill
Make sure to activate it for more bleed dps and life regen
To figure out what maps you have to run to complete the pantheon - open atlas and enter it's name
Every league maps are different
You should have ~30 dext/30 int on your gear in summary (check trade filters)
When axe and shield are equipped -
You may have a question - why would we not switch into split arrow/puncture right after acts? - to have enough single target from puncture you MUST have Assailum which cost 50c at day1 and 5c at day2 of the league
We will make a Lacerate setup which can do red maps and then when the helmet is cheaper - switch into Split Arrow/Puncture
Soul of Abberath : Put the Summit Map and Divine Vessel into the Map Device and run the map. Talk to Sin when you kill the boss(Can be found close to act6 Town Waypoint)
If you do not have currency for both Axe and Shield - buy a shield from vendor and use any life/res essence

Hard to find that ring on trade but easy to craft
Buy a base with 'Vulnerability on hit'
Make sure it is the only Warlord's mod on the ring
Buy a base with 'Reduced effect of curses on you'
Make sure it is the only Crusader's mod on the ring
Use Awakener's orb (Right click on Awakener's orb, Left click on Donor Amulet (Warlord's one), Left click on Main Amulet (Crusader's one with chaos res imlicit)
Craft Life or Channelling skills have -3 manacost (use Imbued catalysts)
Citadel Bow, ~250-700+ pdps
2 methods to craft the bow :
1. Cheap way to get 200-600 pdps bow :
Buy a base with fractured phys and spam Veiled Chaos Orbs until you get a veiled prefix + an empty prefix > craft ' minions deal increased damage' > unveil the prefix and take phys dps (it's garaunted) recraft 'adds phys dps' using bench
2. More expensive method to get 250-700 dps bow :
Buy a base with fractured phys and spam Deafening essence of Contempt until you Buy 1 empty prefix + 1 empty suffix > Add 'Prefixes cannot be changed' > T4 Aisling, If you got veiled prefix - add 'minions have increased attack speed' using bench > unveil taking phys dps (it's garaunted) and add damage over time as suffix using crafting bench. If T4 Aisling gave you a suffix - repeat with 'Prefixes cannot be changed' and use T4 Aisling until veiled prefix

You can now remove The Dream jewel and get Inspired Learning instead
We use Charisma as anointment
To craft life regen on flask - roll any good prefix ( reduced charges used, increased duration) and have empty suffix
x3
Before crafting a bow - try to buy it
Bleeding builds are non-meta and high dps bows should be cheap
(note that bows with fractured phys can be difficult to buy both at the first days and at the end of the league
4
Cluster jewels
Student of decay is what you want to have on all medium cluster jewels
As a second skill you want Flow of Life
Student of Decay + Flow of Life might be expensive, if so - try to replace Flow of Life with Wasting Affliction. If still expensive - replace Wasting Affliction with Circling Oblivion (check the filter)
Also i would recommend to have one medium cluster with Brush with Death to for a better life sustain

Small cluster jewel with Born of Chaos
Buy one with 2 small passives if u need more chaos res for cap
Last important thing about cluster jewels - you should have flat dext/int on them if possible (check the filter)
3
Vulnerability on hit + anticurse Ring
If you have no money for awakener's orb - you can get a ring with only Vulnerability on hit and get the final ring later
Buy a lvl 80+ ring with Warlord's influence and use caster reforge until you get Vulnerability on hit + some res and craft life/channelling skills have -3 manacost
3.2
Ring with high resistance
Try to have ~40% chaos res and ~100% ele res on it in summary (use prismatic catalysts)
5
Glorious Vanity Timeless Jewel
Once you have 80+ chaos res - you can buy the jewel
(can be expensive at first days of the league, if so - skip until the price drops)
Use Intrinsic catalysts to increase attributes
To finally add Malevolence to your setup - buy Enlighten and link it to Pride-Malevolence-Determination. You should have at least one 'channelling skills have -3 to total manacost' craft on amulet/rings
8
Ryslatha's Coil Studded Belt
Highly increases bleed dps
Use Abrasive catalysts for even more dps
12
Body Armour/Gloves/Boots with spell suppression
I would recommend to buy all three items at the same time
13
Forbidden Flame/Flesh Crimson Jewels
Allocates Bane of Legends
From now on you can play physical reflect
