Skill Rotation

Maximize your efficiency by following this optimal rotation:

1. Activate Infuse Weapon and Herald of Thunder as pre-buffs.

2. Use Lightning Spear as your primary clear tool with full support links.

3. Generate Frenzy Charges via:

   • Thunderous Leap + Rage/Frenzy on Hit

   • Manually casting Frenzy

   • Switching to Primal Strikes for boss fights if Spirit allows

---

Spirit Management

Running every support and utility gem isn’t always viable due to Spirit constraints. Adjust your loadout:

• Drop Wind Dancer or Infuse Weapon depending on your setup

• Avoid wasting passive points on reservation if a skill is benched

• Invest in buff reservation nodes for more uptime

📌 Pro Tip: Learn the timing and flow of your skills — it’s the secret to clearing faster and dominating boss fights.

Ascendancy Passives

The following ascendancy path is optimal for the Amazon Lightning Spear build and ensures strong scaling and reliable performance:

1. Critical Strike – boosts your crit scaling and pairs perfectly with Lightning damage.

2. Stalking Panther – adds bonus mobility and helps maintain uptime.

3. Penetrate – only choose if your weapon provides flat Accuracy; it adds flat elemental damage and improves scaling.

4. Elemental Infusion – a late-game power boost that improves elemental synergy.

To unlock ascendancy points, you’ll need to complete challenge encounters like the Trial of Sekhemas. If you’d rather skip the grind, Dving’s team can handle any trial or challenge content and help you fully optimize your ascendancy setup.

Gear Stat Priority

To push this build’s potential, look for these stats across your equipment:

• Weapon: High Physical or Physical + Lightning DPS; Accuracy, Attack Speed, Crit Multiplier

• Body Armour: Prioritize Spirit and Life, then Resistances

• Helmet: Strong all-around stats with Evasion (The Black Insignia is BiS for speed mapping)

• Gloves: Attack Speed > Crit Damage > Flat Added Damage to Attacks > Life > Resistances > Evasion

• Boots: Movement Speed > Life > Resistances > Evasion

• Ring 1: Use for fixing Attributes/Resistances; look for Life, Evasion, Added Attack Damage

• Ring 2: Death Rush for Onslaught and clear speed synergy

• Belt: Life and Resistances; Utility Belt for flask synergy

• Amulet: Spirit, Life, Attributes; anoint Profusion for mana economy

Consider using Artificier’s Orb to socket critical pieces — or let Dving handle socket crafting for you.

Atlas Passive Recommendations

Atlas passives are highly flexible and depend on your personal playstyle. However, for Lightning Spear’s fast-clearing nature, these are highly recommended:

• Breach – increases mob density and rewards

• Abyss – synergizes with fast-paced clearing and scaling

• Shrines – enhance speed and defense on the go

If you’d rather skip progression farming and jump into endgame content, let our team handle your Atlas Progress — and spend time where it counts.

Quick Tips for Lightning Spear Build

• Fix Mana Early: Look for gear or passives that support mana regen

• Buff Smartly: Not all buffs fit at once; skip Wind Dancer if Spirit is tight

• Weapon Swap: Use alternate weapons with Unhindered or other movement passives to counter tricky map mods

📌 That concludes the Amazon Lightning Spear Build guide. You’re now ready to shock your enemies and surge through the league with speed, control, and raw power!
