I maxed Dragon talon / claws of thunder / phoenix strike / claw mastery
I put no points in claw block and no points in shadow mastery
it also doubles as a wherebear sin
I keep cta in stash and have beast on switch
left claw is 40% ias / amp damage / 200-300% ed / fools / non eth 1 soc with 40/15ias jewel (greater taons / runic talons only)
right claw is 30% ias / fools / 2 socket / sheal sheal (greater talons or runic talons only) non eth
I use 1 pt burst of speed
dracs gloves for lifetap chance
i'm using 37x 1-71 lightning / 20 life small charms and wanted to attack as fast as possible
Even though elemental damage from charms don't show up on kick screen i assure you that they do actually work
i can use straight kicks or charge up with claws of thunder and kick after 3 charges
because the claws are so fast i charge up with ease
dragon talon is one of the fastest attacks in the game
this would work with any elemental charms like 19-29 fire charms or pure elemental charms
not great at pvp but for monsters it shreds pretty easily
the nova from lightning claws brings most monsters to below half health, so two full charge attacks and a whole group is gone and it kills most monsters in 2 hits while charging up
I've noticed it likes to do double charging up even if you kill a monster in one hit because you swing so fast it registers 2 hits even though you only hit them once
I don't know how to explain it... but this build works surprisingly well and is fun to auto attack with wherebear form
only advice I have for you is to try to get 40% ias runic talons fools with 2 sockets if possible
I haven't tried the 3 socket runic talons of swiftness for even faster speed... with 3x sheal but i think they wouldnt give as much life leech because the physical damage is too low...
i'm using 20/20 facet armor because the damage from charms is so high and facets help claws of thunder
i'm using 25 damage reduced helmet (i might want to switch to 8% life leech helmet later) with 3 sockets and using 3x light facets
i'll post pics of claws too so you can see what i'm using:
basically all my gear is usable before level 49... i was planning on making this a MLD character but the charms require level 82... so i haven't upgraded the claws yet and i'll decide later if i want the extra physical damage and sacrifice level requirement
speed of greater talons and runic talons is the same...
anyways thats my newest build to test out my charms with... seemed to work pretty well
also (no claw block = more time hitting in werebear)
basically i wanted the fastest claw i could get on the right hand side
and i wanted the highest damage claw with 40% ias i could find on the left hand side... and preferably non eth
brings value to claws nobody would normally want to keep
good luck and hope someone enjoyed my guide
