Arthef’s Spark of Life

Legendary Two-Handed Mace
Command Skeletons gains the effect of your equipped Grim Scythe’s rune of Execution for any enemy. Every piece of every active set level increases by an additional 3% the health threshold required by the Execution rune of Grim Scythe when applied by your Skeletal Warriors, as well as by 2.5% the damage you can stagger.

Explainer

  • Fantasy: Insta Kill Grim Scythe Reapers
  • Motivation 1: Execution has a 5% Chance to Insta Kill enemies below 20% health. This rune rivals Early Grave which has a 100% Chance below 18% health. Let’s buff Execution, so it can trigger when enemy’s healh is at or below 100%
  • Motivation 2: Microsets are underused. Let’s invent a mechanic using them
  • Motivation 3: Moratorium is underused. Let’s invent a mechanic to buff its usefulness
  • Gameplay: Command Skeletons
  • Best attributes: Number of active Sets levels
  • Command Skeletons gains Execution: 5% Chance x 7 Skeletal Warriors = 35% Chance Insta Kill
  • Any Enemy: Elites and Bosses included
  • Focus: 2
  • Jesseth: 2
  • Asheara: 2 + 3 = 5
  • Aughild: 2 + 3 = 5
  • Demon: 2 + 3 = 5
  • BlackThorne: 2 + 3 + 4 = 9
  • Total: 2 + 2 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 9 = 28
  • Grim Scythe / Execution: Now triggers while enemy’s health is under 20% + 28 x 3% = 104% (Always)
  • Moratorium: Now staggers 35% + 28 * 2.5% = 105% of all incoming damage (Defer all damage)
  • Molten: Absorb the DoT damage dealt by staggered damage over 18 seconds
  • Tasker and Theo: +50% Pets Attack Speed
  • Zero IAS nor Frenzy: No need for IAS other than Tasker and Theo,
  • as it would be converted into damage, which is useless in this build
  • Mitigation: If 5% is too much, reduce the Execution Rune itself to 1% or less. Bosses could also build a resistance when Insta Kill fails. Bosses would then become immune to Grim Scythe for 1-2 seconds
  • Diablo 4: Can be transposed to D4 using Reapers (Skeletal Warriors) or Sever

Holy cow bro are you still at it with these for a game that is in maintenance mode.

Your dedication to a lost cause is commendable. :+1:

I hope D4 is not yet in maintenance mode :joy:

The inspiration was D3, But if there is a power that mimics the Execution rune in D4, the mechanic can easily be adapted to D4.

Your time and effort might be better served on the D4 forum at least the CMs look at that forum.

Your posts are appreciated. It’s cool to see people still enthused enough to promote ideas, even if they end up being wishful thinking. So don’t mind the local ne’er-do-wells and their negativity.
