• + Mows through end game content like it's nothing, uber elder included

• + Very fast mapper
• + You can start the build with 3-5ex and upgrade it gradually

Cons

Tips

Uniques Tips

• - Wall of brambles - this armor will completely solve your physical damage problems for the entire storyline
• - Belt of the deceiver - very good defensively and offensively, can be used till respec
• - Carnage heart - same story, it will solve any attribute problems as well
• - Le heup of all - great and cheap rings, they boost stats, resistances and damage very nicely

Other Tips

Don't try to tank the strongest attacks in the game if your ES isn't high enough. If you are below 10k ES, there are abilities that can 1 shot you if they crit (t13 malachai slam, Uber Atziri's construct thing). you can tank shaper's slam comfortably even with 10k es, just make sure you have fortify on. We would recommend doing uber elder with at least 10k ES and 1.2m shaper dps, it should be easy to do it without dying at this point.
