Description
Who needs keystones? Who needs melee damage?
The Inferno Staff is arguably the highest DPS weapon in the game. The more enemies there are, the more effective the blaze, making this an excellent Havoc build.
Build Thesis:
It's more efficient to spend talent points on mobility and survivability than Disrupt Destiny. You'll need less time to reposition and have more time to use your staff, outweighing the damage buff from the keystone.
For example, we could swap [Quietude, Battle Meditation, Anticipation, and Warp Speed] to reach Lingering Influence.
You gain, at best:
- +15% damage
- +30% critical damage
- +37.5% weakspot damage (pretty useless with the staff besides Brain Bursting)
In exchange for:
- Dodge duration
- Effective dodges
- +15% movement speed
- +4% toughness replenishment for every 10% peril
- -10% peril generation
- 10% chance to quell 10% peril on kill
In practice, this build allows me to reposition so quickly that I can use my staff ~30% more, completely negating the need for a keystone. Additionally, you are no longer a glass cannon, and can survive like a Zealot whilst doing much more damage. Fun and practical!
