Version, purpose and verified scope

The archived S11 setup combines Rotting Lightbringer with Pulverize, Grizzly Rage and Rampaging Werebeast. Its passive choices and Paragon route belong to the level-60 tree. The selected Mythical version is a complete target before the separate Sanctified version becomes relevant.

Patch family 2.5; level 60. Source variant: Mythical. Author revision: 2025-12-22T09:09:42. This page includes the complete skill allocation, bar, equipment, sockets and board/glyph list. Record and top-rank claims in the source title are not adopted as our own measurements.

Skill, item and glyph names retain unambiguous English planner labels. Numbers in the point table are allocated ranks, not final ranks increased by gear.

Action bar and gameplay

Secure Grizzly Rage and resource flow before long attack sequences. Pulverize dense packs, use Claw and Maul for the intended transitions and stagger Debilitating Roar defensively. Cyclone Armor protects close range and supports grouping.

Equipment by slot

Stats, tempering and upgrade order

Assemble the core weapon and matching aspects before investing in Sanctification. Prioritize Willpower, Life and repeatable Grizzly availability. Use Divine Gifts according to the mapping below; obsolete Chaos Perks retained on rolling source pages no longer apply.

The table lists attributes from the selected source, with preferred Greater/Masterwork targets first. It does not reuse present-day tooltip percentages as historical values.

Limits and safe transitions

A large hit does not replace stable Spirit. The later 3.0 Pulverize setup uses new active upgrades and cannot be built from this passive table.

Verify resource sustain, protection and core items together before increasing difficulty. An author’s test with particular gear, density or boss phases does not prove identical performance on every character.
