A short guide to HB Fury.

hello everyone! I have been meaning to add in a small and fast guide to HB fury.
The feats should be whatever you really want in the fury tree. my suggestion is to go with Leeroys feat guide.
I wanted to mainly focus on skills amd companion set up, since people tend to get confused with what to use. Ill start with which skills to use.
For dailies, use TT and Brood. Why use brood? That is a helluva lot of necro damage added for creeping death. It hits pretty dang hard, as well as a rather quick casting time.
Encounters: use killing flames, fiery bolt, and WB/Dreadtheft (WB for single target and DT for aoe). Your class feature should always have No Pity, No Mercy and Flames of Empowerment. Your slip should be fast enough to move from read. That damage bonus is quite nice, especially if you are trying to maximize your damage.
At-wills: hand of blight always and forever. Dark spiral aura is a great choice due to the fact that it can crit for 50k+. I use that for trash clearing. Rebuke is good for bosses. Just toss on the boss amd forget about it.
For companions: i set them up specifically to turn me into a beast. Forget the ioun stones, or any augment for that matter.
i use Cambion Magus as my perma companion Stacked with loyal avenger and perfect bonding stones. Those stones make it so your companion becomes a form of an augment on steroids. Thats 65% of his stats when it triggers (and boy do they trigger). They can stack up to 3 times, sometimes 4 or 5. Thats way more stats than what an augment can give, and they can crit for a ton.
my second companion is erinyes. Both of those are =to 20% extra crit severity.
third and fourth i use fire and air archon. More damage please! I also use the Jagged Dancing Blade/volcanic galeb duhr. It doesnt say how much the blade decreases the mobs defense, still worth having.
artifact set? Believe it or not, but the LoL set adds a TON of damage. Absolutely monstrous. The belt stats and horn stats are garbage for us, but that set bonus more than makes up for it.
And for overloads and regular artis. Use greater corrupt black ice glyphs. Thats a lot of ap gain. Regular artis? I use whatever gives combat advantage. We are based off of using CA to our advantage. Lots of damage added. I started off with 20 cha. Thats better than going 18/18 for con and cha Due to more CA.
Crude guide, i know. I have had a ton of success with it. Always top paingiver (if you care for that).
Anyways, thanks for reading the "guide". I wrote it while pulling a 24 hour shift! Questions are welcome!

Thanks for this. Very interesting. Do you think this build is at all feasible for folks who don't have all of the artifacts and other elements?
I was a HB Fury and really wanted to play that, but I ended up respeccing as a SB because I couldn't stay alive. Now, I am a pretty new player (~2 months) and don't have all of the artifacts and companions that would probably make me much more powerful. I just have the basic stuff, and for me solo content (Spinward, etc) was just constant death as a HB Fury.
Im going to be honest with you and say that it would work, but not nearly as well. You can still dish out the damage, but without decent bonding stones and proper equipment, sb might be better for you.
I should have stated that this is optimum.
P.s. : negation is a no go. With the amount of arpen mobs have, it renders it useless. People forget this fact. Stick with soulforged.
can the compagnion trigger his buff, at least 2 stacks all through fight, or is it better going augment in boss fights, if he does not stay alive enough standing all time in spiderweb or red area
I would not invest that amount of zen in 3 perfect bonding runestones and the magus
--> 14 mio AD =28k Zen= 280 Euro , i would go on Holiday for the weekend
nice guide for HB fury bro .
CA for SW is good choice to be a great DPS dealer . LOL set is completely nice for SW . and Also if u have MC set , then u are great to risk your life . Charisma also give benefit on your companion influence stat . Perfect Vorpal is the way to increase potency of your crit damage too . can pull as high as u can effort .
generally the tactic + item + confidence is for SW future
THE BEST TEAM IS ALWAYS LEAD THE BEST YOUR BUILD .
THE BEST WEAPON THAT WE HAVE IS TEAM MATES , NOT YOU .
280 euro for holiday
just joke bro
THE BEST TEAM IS ALWAYS LEAD THE BEST YOUR BUILD .
THE BEST WEAPON THAT WE HAVE IS TEAM MATES , NOT YOU .
This did not change for lesser/normal/greater in any combo i tried.
So you can only get 3x the listed amount bonus amount at any time max.
With 3 slotted one was triggering every 11 seconds on average in my tests.
Which means you will get 2x the level boost most of the time on average, eg 130% of comp's stats all the time for perfects.
Then if you get pet legendary get another 15% more stats.
All up a p2w pet (15%) with 3x bond (10/11/12) (130% average) --> 145% of pets ratings.
(assuming my maths and testing is ok)
I tested before as well. I have seen 4 stacks before and on a super rare occasion, a 5th stack.
Well if they work on a server ICD not individual ICD which most of these things seem too, like hoards/teneberous then what you say is entirely possible.
But if you did get the 4/5th or even 6th stack you would definitely have a period of 0 boost.
On average you will still only get 2x uptime tho.
Quick explanation how 6x could happen over 1 minute->
0 - 5 - 10 - 15 - 20 - 25 - (30/0) - 5 - 10 - 15 - 20 - 25 - 30
( --- server ICD window --) ( --- server ICD window ---)
1st bond 1st trigger
TTTTTTTTTTTTT
1st bond 2nt trigger
TTTTTTTTTTTTT
2nd bond 1st trigger ----TTTTTTTTTTTTT
2nd bond 2nt trigger
TTTTTTTTTTTTT
3rd bond 1st trigger---TTTTTTTTTTTTT
3rd bond 2nt trigger
TTTTTTTTTTTTT
6x boost here
xxxxx
000000000000000000
00000000 -> zero boost here
So this is the way to play a warlock now?
>30k stats one buff...325% ?
sry to disappoint you, "Lostmauth´s horn of Blasting" is sold out for month, but we have a nice wheel of elements if you are intersted
all ppl use lostmouth set atm esp GWF, CW uses T Feytouched, and lots of my guildies have 3 P Bonding runestones slottet
some do oneshot the scorps and Lostmouth with a glitch, others go eCC hopping
atm there is too much broken stuff and exploit, no legit play at all
have a nice cheat
i never said it was budget friendly. i was just posting the top-notch for damage dealing.
