Leap Quake Barbarian Endgame Build Guide
Last Updated: Apr 10, 2025 by Slaydra
About
This build is based upon the successful Meta Leap Quake build created by Slaydra in Season 10.
The build still boosts powerful Earthquake attacks while keeping you perfectly safe as you leap around the screen and provides a strong killing speed for fast map clear. One major component of the gameplay of this build, is the need for a strong investment into Cooldown Reduction for your skills or you will feel a distruption to the flow of gameplay.
Gameplay Rotation
Leap: Your main movement and Earthquake generator.
Hammer of the Ancients: Used as the "detonator" for Earthquakes. In this build, its raw damage doesn't matter; only its ability to consume Earthquakes does.
Wrath of the Berserker: Your primary damage steroid and crowd control tool.
Shouts: Essential for our Cooldown Reduction and overall damage increases and reductions.

Additional information
GodSlayer: Helps to pull enemies together into groups for easier grouping.
Mantle of the Mountain's Fury: This allows HoTA to pop Earthquakes for their total damage instantly, for when we need to single target an enemy down.
Fist of Fate: The bonus percentage damage bonus applies to all of our attacks including Earthquake.
Aspect of Wildbolt: Helps pull enemies together for good grouping for our Cooldown Reduction.
Aspect of Giant Strides: This is crucial for infinite leaping as it reduces Leap's cooldown per enemy hit.
