Skill Tree:

The first step is to take notes that give increased damage, health, and attack speed. Then, move into the area of leech and damage to ensure your health is maintained even if you take damage, and you'll be able to keep your attacks going for a long time. Taking the Eternal Youth node will enable you to ignore the mana costs that come with two-handed axe skills.

 

For the skill tree, start with Ground Slam and Sunder and then move into the area of life and leech. Once you have your Eternal Youth and Life Step nodes are taken, move into the area of damage and attack speed. From there, pick up Rage on Hit and Magnetic Strikes. After that, move on to Avatar of Fire and Flame Advance for massive damage and leech to keep your health high.

 

Auras:

Use Precision, Purity of Ash, and Herald of Purity for damage and survivability while helping you clear out mobs quickly. For faster attacks and added cold damage, invest in life tap to sustain your mana. Pick up an endurance charge for more defensive options and a worm sign for a rampage buff.

 

Hatchet Master and Call to Arms provide extra damage and attack speed. You can also pick up Wave of Conviction and Flame Dash. The wave of Conviction applies an exposure debuff, while Flame Dash helps with your mobility.

 

Gear:

Invest in the Molten Burst skill for physical damage converted to fire, and Avatar of Fire to increase fire damage. Pain Attunement increases your DPS, while Worm Sign gives you rampage and endurance charges. The Thread of Hope jewel provides extra survivability.

 

For unique gear, the Brass Dome helm gives you more resistance and accuracy, while the Polaric Devastation ring provides increased damage and leech. The Yoke of Suffering gives you increased fire damage, shock chance, and area of effect, while the Roller Coaster boots provide permanent Endurance and Frenzy charges.

 

To increase your damage, use a Diamond Flask to increase your critical strike chance, a Wise Oak to increase damage, a Divine Life Flask to heal yourself, and a Lion's Roar to increase your damage even further. Additionally, use a Void Shock Quicksilver Flask to be shocked immune, a Brass Dome to reflect damage and a Cloak of Flame for extra fire resistance.
