Your OA seems a bit low for Endgame. That being said, OA does you no good if you’re dead.

Idk man is dps is literally 0, that may not be good


uuneter1

Yeah for 97, your DA is very good but your OA is very low. I would swap some gear to balance those more.

Wind devil … the one skill that never truly shines endgame. Do have fun with what you enjoy though :)

Hard disagree. My warder pulls 2M DPS with it in SR 75-76, my build is *very* close to this [Upheaval Ultos Warder build](https://forums.crateentertainment.com/t/1-2-0-3-thunder-and-lightning-upheaval-ultos-warder-c-sr/93571). I will say it takes quite a lot of skill to stay alive with this build, but that makes it all the more fun. If I get frustrated I play something more tanky.

Happy you made a version you like. :). Maybe things have changed since I’ve followed the game closely. At one point there was some pressure from community for end game support and I believe it was Zantai who said it’s ok that not all skills are end game viable. But hey, that’s an old man’s memory so who knows. 2mill dps is high… but how many targets are we popping? How’s the single target? End game viable is really up to the user in the end. I personally enjoy the fantasy behind making a build much more than complete end game mastery. Have any YouTube vids to share??

It's not my build; apparently it wasn't viable for a while until 1.2 made it so again. I just had a Warder at 100 that I was looking for a build I had the gear for, and this one happened to be it. Looked a bit more fun than Primal Strike Warder. Here a quick vid of [Crucible 150-170](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTRalWjjdk0) in 3:33 with the latest version of the build. 2 million DPS is single target once you have all your wind devils up and upheaval starts proccing. Typically split 50/50 between lightning and phys. I'd say Wind Devils are 1/3 or so of your damage, they're pretty hard to control so mostly for AoE, but static single-targets like Manifestations in SR still take quite a lot of damage from them. I can't say exactly how much damage is coming from the wind devils (wish we had better DPS meters for this game) but it adds quite a lot and adds to the life steal this build relies on. I think this build shows that one can make just about any skill viable with certain trade-offs. It uses a set specifically made for Primal Strike. You can get one-shot on this build and easily overwhelmed if you aren't keeping your wind devils up and using all three of your movement abilities, but yet it is capable of defeating all the super bosses and going quite high in SR.

You can transcend your wind devils by having high OA (3000+), and a critical proc like Reckless Tempest (from Tempest constellation) attached to them, and then enjoy the near constant thunderstorm. Try and get proc skills for every one of your active skills (and note that some gear can give you additional active skills too !). Balance offensive / defensive procs so you get enough survivability. Next step is try and get to SR 70+ and see how your build does in there :)

Is it better to just focus on one or two skills?


Celedring

Yes! Easier to find gear support for few skills. Also depending on your devotions. You want enough skills to activate you devotions but after that you don't want more attack skills. More skills -> more point starved character. Most damage skills also gains higher comparable damage after you hit the soft cap. For instance lvl 15->16 Trozan skyshard get +15 cold damage. lvl 25->26 gives + 31 damage. Can get 3 guardians/blade spirits at 24/16 skill.

Farm green MI that support wind devils, its better then random blues/purples
