"There are venoms and virtues aplenty in the wilds, if you know where to look."

The Pathfinder possesses skills that grant additional flask uses and offensive and defensive bonuses while using them.

This build uses Blade Flurry as the main skill. It's still fine for clearspeed. It's not your clear 2 screens with one massive projectile skill clearspeed, but with enough attack speed you can just WB>hold for half a second and move on.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• + Cheap / Budget
• + Can clear literally every map mod at all tiers
• + Fast movement speed with and without shield charge

• + Synergies with bex's "Pop" loot filter

Cons

• - Has to ramp up damage against bosses
• - Have to stand still periodically to do damage
• - Abyssal Cry cooldown is a clear-speed gate
• - Not a juggernaut
• - Requires more than a single button for clearing (2!)

Pantheons

The Pantheon List

Your major god should be Arakaali upgraded with a divine vessel used to Capture Arachnoxia from Toxic Sewers. This gives the benefit of giving you 50% increased life recovery whenever Immortal Call activates and stops Blood Rage's Damage over Time. In my opinion this interaction is overpowered.

I use the upgraded Garukhan for my minor god. But until you're able to clear Dig with a divine vessel, you should use Ralakesh.

Gear

Overview

Flasks

1. Divine Life Flask

Prefix: Either Bubbling (50% of recovery applied instantly) or Seething (Recovery applied instantly, but less total recovered).

Suffix: Either of Staunching (Removes bleeding) or of Heat (Removes freeze and chill). I would recommend Staunching.

2. Quicksilver Flask

Prefix: Your choice between Chemist's (Reduced charges used) Experimenter's (Increased duration) or Perpetual (Charges recover faster).

Suffix: Adrenaline (Additional increased movement speed) is my mandate. You've gotta have the need for speed.

3. Silver Flask

Prefix: Chemist's, Experimenter's, or Perpetual.

Suffix: Depending on your other flask choices, either of Heat (Removes freeze and chill) or of Warding (Immune to curses). I would recommend of Heat.

4. Sulfur Flask

Prefix: Chemist's, Experimenter's, or Perpetual.

Suffix: Depending on your other flask choices, either of Warding (Immune to curses) or of Staunching (Removes bleeding). I would recommend of Warding.

5. Atziri's Promise

Try to get the highest roll you can for Gain #% of Physical Damage as Extra Chaos Damage during Flask effect. The elemental roll does not matter.

Jewels

Every jewel that you get should have:

• 7% increased maximum Life

As well as one or two of these mods (three if you're crazy):

• (6-8)% increased Attack Speed with Claws
• (3-5)% increased Attack Speed
• (6-8)% increased Poison Duration
• Any remaining Elemental Resistances you need
