[3.4] Ascendant Reave/Blade Flurry - Fast Mapping - Easy Bossing - Uber Elder viable.

Weapons:

Sword:

You're looking for a high physical DPS sword with as high attack speed and crit as you can get.

Something with at least 1.9 attack speed and 6.5 crit is ideal. Multimodded Merciless is a cheap way to get a good sword.



Off-Hand:

You're main stat on your off-hand is any Physical as extra damage mods. Axes work but Sceptres are superior.

You can look for Elemental Penetration, Crit Multi, Accuracy and any % damage increases as well.




Armour:

Helmet:

A rare helmet with an enchant is best in my opinion. High Life, Resists and Accuracy are what you're after here.

Best enchant is Blood Rage attack speed but you can go with Reave enchants if you're focused on mapping and Blade Flurry if you want to boss. Preferable bases are armour based as evasion is wasted with Kaom's Roots.



Body Armour:

Belly of the Beast is the best in slot. You can use a rare Elder chest with high Life and Crit Chance but I would stick with a Belly.



Gloves:

Tombfist with two sockets are BiS but one sockets is fine. You can use a rare if you're struggling with resists.



Boots:

Koam's Roots with a good enchant or +1 Frenzy is BiS but you can use a rare if you want. Kaom's are required for easy Uber Elder kills.

Amulet:

An amulet with a combination or high Intelligence, Accuracy, Physical Damage, Multi and as high Life as you can get is ideal. You will need Int somewhere and this is the easiest place to get it.

And Elder amulet with Non Phys as extra Chaos is insane and along side other good rolls is the best you can get.



Rings:

Steel Rings are the best base but Resist rings are fine. High Life, Phys, Resists and maybe Accuracy is best.

Strength is a stat that is undervalued and gives good damage and life bonuses without pushing prices through the roof so look for it when available.



Belt:

A Stygian Vise with High Life, Resists and WED is what you're after.

If you want to push your leech even further a Elder belt with high Life and Recovery Rate is very good. There's some other good mods like %Life or Melee Damage or Attack Speed during Flask Effect that are also excellent.



Jewels:

Jewels with %Life, Crit Multi and Attack Speed are what you're after.

In the Endgame a Hatred Crit jewel is very good and worth picking up once you can't easily upgrade your other gear.



Flasks:

This is pretty much the best flask set up you can use.

Main Skills:

Either gem swap or use a second Body Armour with Blade Flurry as three gem swaps can be tiring.

Vaal Reave - Multistrike - Melee Physical - Increased Area - Increased Critical Strikes - Damage on Full Life

Blade Flurry - Melee Physical - Conc Effect - Increased Critical Strikes - Damage on Full Life - Maim

Other Skills:

Hatred - Blood Rage - Herald of Ash

Leap Slam - Faster Attacks - Fortify - Blood Magic

CWDT - Immortal Call - Blood Rage

Ancestral Warchief

If you have any extra sockets you can do whatever you prefer.

If you want Power Charges due to low Crit:

Herald of Ice - Curse on Hit - Assassins Mark

Passives:

104 Points
119 Points

Take Intelligence nodes as needed.

Bandits:

Alira if you need the Resists. If you are Resist capped without Alira then take the Passives.

Lab:

Slayer > Raider > Duelist start.

Pantheon:

Soul of Arakaali for the insane leech rate when Immortal Call procs.

Soul of Ralakesh for the Blind Immunity reduced Bleed damage.

Your Gear doesn't need to be nearly this good. I was killing Uber Elder deathless with a 350 pDps sword. Don't copy my links specifically as they are set up in a weird way for Uber Elder slaying.
