My build to kill Uber Elder, Sirus, make T16 maps in Delirium and pass the game's challenges, then try the Maven!

Note

Following Gouga's very good remark, replacing Faster Attack with Multistrike Support allows you to add 1 million dps, so consider changing this gem!

How the build works

This build uses damage over time from Bleeding and physical damage. This build is the final version of Bleeding Gladiator 300 choas 3.17.

Build Statistics

This build is ultra resistant and hits very hard, it is also fast enough to make maps quickly:

• 5.5k life
• 5 million+ dps
• 90% physical damage reduction
• 75%+ to elemental resistances
• 50% chaos resistance
• 6 permanent stamina orbs
• 3 frenzy orbs in map

One or two handed weapon?

Before going into the details of the build, here is to help you choose one or two hands:

• One hand + shield: more life and in theory reduced physical damage
• Two hands: more damage

With this build you will have 90% physical damage reduction, being the maximum possible. So you won't need the one brought by the shield. However, you will have a considerable life gain which will be very practical, especially against spell damage. You will also have more damage with a better setup of Enlighten on the two-handed weapon. Both are largely viable, choose if you prefer a bit more resistance or damage.

Gems and Skills

Here are the gems and links to use:

• On armor
  • Primary Spell: Lacerate, Brutality, Melee Physical Damage, Multistrike, Fortify, Cruelty
  • remember to take the most level 21 gems with 23 of quality!
• On helmet, boots or gloves:
  • Totems: Brutality or Vaal Haste, Ancestral Warchief, Bloodlust, Multiple Totem
  • Utility: Leap, Vulnerability, Vengeance, Hextouch
  • Auto-cast: Molten Shell (13), Cast When Damage Taken (6), Blood Rage (10) | Fire Golem
• On weapon:
  • Auras: Enlighthen (3), Herald of Purity, Pride, Flesh of Stone, War Banner (if Enlighthen 4 only) | Enduring Cry

Be careful with a weapon + shield, you will need 2 Enlighten if you want to have the same result.

The tree will be completed level 94. For ancestry, stay on the classic as shown below. Attention this tree is optimized only if you have the equipment at 12 Exa, otherwise take the build tree 300 chaos! You have of course the POB below:

Gameplay

Here is what you can easily do with this build:

• Guardian, Shaper, Elder and Uber Elder, you will eventually lose a life on the Uber Elder
• Conqueror and Sirius
• All Maven Invitations

Maven

This build can kill the Maven if you play well, I brought it to the end of its third phase, playing badly and stupidly losing lives. If you want to try it, I still recommend either a little more DPS, or a little more life (see next section).

Even more exa to spend?

If you want to spend exa here is how to continue this build:

• A very good weapon, for a dozen exa at least
• Enlighten level 4 to use War Banner
• I tested some Awakened support, I advise you not to buy them until the two points above are done, the DPS provided is light, also be careful to compare the level 21 23 quality gems to these Awakened gems!
