Damage engine and purpose
New Justice scales Tempest Rush with Sweeping Wind active. Won Khim Lau supplies Cyclone; Cesar and a planned Flurry release provide burst.
Item, skill and rune names use their English game spelling for unambiguous lookup. Explanations, rotation and limitations are fully translated.
Six skills and runes
| Skill · rune | Function |
|---|---|
| Blinding Flash · Faith in the Light | Cesar or crowd-control window before the main hit. |
| Tempest Rush · Flurry | Build Flurry and release deliberately. |
| Sweeping Wind · Inner Storm | Set condition and Spirit sustain. |
| Serenity · Ascension | Use the short immunity window proactively. |
| Mantra of Salvation · Agility | Defensive base effect; plan active resource use. |
| Epiphany · Desert Shroud | Spirit and core damage reduction; Rabid Strike copying only when that weapon is actually equipped. |
Four passive skills

Legendary and normal gems
Legendary gems: Pain Enhancer / Bane of the Trapped / Taeguk.
Normally use an Emerald in weapon sockets; choose the helm socket for cooldown or Life needs. Match armour sockets to missing main stat or toughness. Seasonal Soul Shards replace helm or weapon gems only in the explicitly identified seasons.
Stats, cooldowns and optimisation
Cold, Tempest Rush, CDR and stable Spirit. Longer Flurry charging helps only if needless channel breaks do not waste it.
Complete the required legendary powers, correct runes and full set bonuses first. Cooldown reduction combines multiplicatively; do not simply add percentage rolls. Weigh a boss gem against a farming gem according to actual boss-fight length.
Rotation: preparation, damage, refresh
Step 1
Activate Sweeping Wind and Epiphany, then build Tempest Rush.
Step 2
Gather targets, use Blinding Flash before the Cold window and release Flurry deliberately.
Step 3
Use Serenity during transitions and refresh Epiphany through Zodiac on time.
Patch boundaries and verifiable context
The contemporary final review compared each region’s top 50. It documents this Season 19 archetype; Paragon, rift fishing and Pandemonium shaped results. Copying a build guarantees no period rift tier.
A second season assignment, where present, means a still-functional 2.6.8 core. Season 20 additionally unlocks Cube categories but supplies no Pandemonium killstreak.
Check before the next equipment change
Count set pieces before replacing a free armour slot. Equipping and cubing an identical legendary power does not double it. Solo Unity requires a follower wearing the other ring with immortality equipped.
This archive describes the period configuration. A current item database may show new numbers under the same name; those live tooltips do not prove historical multipliers. Old seasonal powers cannot be replayed on current non-seasonal characters.
Season 19 platform boundary
Blizzard 2.6.7a explicitly fixes Justice’s six-piece bonus on Flurry cancellation on PC only; the console fix was still planned for later. The Season 19 pushing reference is therefore PC-specific. Sharp direction changes can unintentionally drop Flurry stacks.
