About

This updated version uses the new Carrion of Creation primordial gloves, adding in damage from exploding enemies and converting all DOTS to bleed. This item provides a huge amount of benefit to our build by increasing the overall bleed application to our foes and added damage.

The Hammerdin build is a fun high potential build that can clear all pinnacle content and comfortably farms corruption. This build can push high corruption, climbing over 1,000+ with proper gearing. This build focuses on using Brewmaster's belt and Abyssal Echo to debuffs enemies, while you apply bleeding to them with Hammer Throw.

The Endgame loot filter can be found here.
