No leech, because almost all the damage of maelstrom is magic, so this build is very reliant on chugging pots (and life after kill) Can feel squishy during the leveling process, when block chance and is not that high

Low life pool, which makes the build very reliant on manual dodging, and avoid for tanking big hits Has the only source of magic resistance debuff in the game from Doom Deceptively tanky thanks to the high avoid and block No jewelcrafting needed, as the builds stacks dex with amethysts/fal runes Very newbie friendly, uses only 1 skill actively for both aoe clear and single target dps Mastering this playstyle is very crucial to not die every other minute, on this, and many other squishy builds.

Utilizing this, you can run, press hold, throw an attack, release shift, and keep running.

To achieve that, there is a mechanic in diablo 2 (and many other hack and slash games): holding shift, and then using a skill will make the character stop in its current position, and use the skill in the targeted direction. This playstyle can be also kept when the gear is much better, and could facetank enemies, but it is just much better to not risk it, and keep kiting and dodging. The potential of maelstrom sin remains the same as before, but thanks to the stat requirement changes, early game will be quite a bit harder since you have to pump more str for gear which means less dex, which means less damage which wasnt exceptional even before.ĭuring the leveling process in normal, nightmare, and early ubers in hell, the build is very squishy, one must learn to kite and kill efficiently, before enemies can reach melee range and slap the poor assassin into an other dimension. What we gained insane single target dps from whychwind and its upgrades. We also lost pinnacle, no more insane amounts of stamina. We lost beacon, since doom is now a lvl 90 uberskill, so we lost a big chunk of movement speed. Block cap is now 50%, which can only be increased by using whychwind with its upgrade. Maelstrom's dmg was buffed by a bit, and mana cost was reduced by a huge amount.

This sin utilizes Pinnacle, which means we have half defense, but it also has many other defensive layers: very easy max block because of huge dex stacking, lots of flat dmg reduction from Prismatic Cloak, lots of free physical resist from Shadow Refuge, tons of avoid from Perfect Being, and lots of movement speed from Beacon to kite and outrun bosses and enemies that get close to you. Most of the damage on maelstrom comes from the dex scaling on the skill, so dexterity is the only thing you want to stack on this build. It is a safe ranged build that can do every single uber (other than high tier dimensional labs and Samael) untwinked, sniping enemies from across the screen.
