Elemental Blade Dancer - Endgame Build With Mods
Hi everyone

I just want to share my current endgame build since im having alot of fun with this.
Eventually things will change, like my gems - statpoints and such, but for now this is the build im running.

Gamemode: Veteran
Highest damage dealt: 12.9mill

Mods in use with this build:

Diablo TL2 UI
Passive Skills and Spells
Exp Gold Fame x10
Dracos Gameplay Mod Pack
Better Vanilla Game Spicy
LAO 2.0 Chaos Edition
Variant
SynergiesALL Addons
SynergiesMOD compatible Torchlight 2 Essentials
SynergiesMOD

This mod setup and gamemode "Veteran" makes the game really hard and challenging. It´s all beacuse of the mod Apocalypse wich appears in Dracos Gameplay Mod Pack. StatElixirs does also appear in this modpack, wich gives us more stats and more power.
Apocalypse raises the gamemode "Veteran" to 5x Veteran in vanilla Torchlight 2. That equals 4xElite.

My character runs the Legendary set Demi-God 12/12 wich is made specific for the class -
- Elemental Blade Dancer. Great gear that has alot of +defense.
If you want to move around faster, use the skill "Anihilation". It has teleport so press and hold the button and your character will teleport to your cursor.
I put all my points in Strength and Focus, some in Vit and Dex - just to cap.

Caps at 399.6%, at 999 Strength.
Caps at 100%, at 475 Dexterity.
Caps at +60%, at 496 Focus.
Caps at 50.1%, at 484 Vitality.

This build works pretty well beacuse of all healing and damage absorption thats going around.
It´s good to have +lifesteal on both weapons.
We also have the spell BLOOD HUNGER that gives us 12% of total life back on every crit - wich is Awesome!

Rotation would look something like this, but it can change depending on the fight.
Always open fights against heavy enemies with Meteor Dash.

*Open all fights with METEOR DASH beacuse it gives a 40% weakened Armor for 8sec on mobs.
*I use Cataclysm if screen is filled with mobs, followed by ABSOLUTE ZERO to finishing them off.
*When things turnes into "oh crap" mode I use BASTION with HEAVENLY BURST, followed by either ABSOLUTE ZERO or FROST WAVE.
*ANIHILATION for Boss/Champs/Hero mobs. That 4sec silence is a must.
And ofc to teleport out of trouble if my heals are on CD.

*BOSS/CHAMPS/HERO:
Meteor Dash - Anihilation - Blizzard - Cruelty - Heavenly Burst - Anihilation - Frost Wave.

Spells i use:
FROST WAVE - BULWARK - BLOOD HUNGER - BATTLE RECOVERY

Spells pet use:
VORTEX HEX - FIRESTORM - HEALING BOT - INFERNAL COLLAPSE

The passive skill INSIDIOUS BLADES in the "Nether Blades tree" is awesome.
Thouse netherlings hurts ALOT!

ENJOY

I used this mod for speed leveling

@Pewnix Not to resurrect an old thread but... Do you happen to know what mod load order you used? I'm rerolling my character tomorrow with these mods and just learned this week that mod load order actually matters... Lol

Nice guide !

Just a question, how can you have 2 stats in 1 slot for your equipement ?

For example on your weapon you have 267 ice damage AND conveys 20% chance to freeze for 5s in 1 slot

@ Pewniw (author): Great Job! I apologize for taking too long. I juggle alot of projects for various players here on the Forums.
