Is the Superior Rune of Durability a must for this build? it is super expensive :-/
You can use Divinity Rune as alternative for now
I use the rune pack as a substitute, I had no problem with any kind of solo content, I hope it helps someone 🙂
I’ve tried this build, or something very close to it, with celestial and with marauders. I actually found the celestial did more dps, maybe because the boons stay up for longer. I found the Fury stays up a lot more for example.
I also use the sigil that gives you crits for 3 seconds after swapping attunements which works really well, do air overload, swap to anything else, crit, swap back to air…
