Version, purpose and verified scope
Kepeleke and Midnight Sun support repeated Rake attacks. Harmony of Ebewaka connects Spirit Hall tags, while The Protector and Hesha e Kesungi support gathering. This archived 2.6 setup retains the old 71-point structure and has no S13 Talisman sets.
Patch family 2.6; level 60. Source variant: Mythic. Author revision: 2026-04-08T06:29:22. 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.

Stats, tempering and upgrade order
Complete Kepeleke, Midnight Sun and resource cycling before Mythics. Then improve maximum resource, attack speed, critical scaling and character-appropriate Bloodied affixes. An extra offensive ring must not break full Vigor recovery.
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.
| Slot | Attribute priority | Tempering |
|---|---|---|
| Helm | Dexterity · All Stats · Movement Speed · Ranks To Velocity | — |
| Weapon | Maximum Resource · Chance For Core Skills To Hit Twice · Critical Strike Damage · Ranks To Velocity | — |
| Gloves | Ranks To Gorilla Skills · Attack Speed · Vulnerable Damage · Ultimate Cooldown Reduction | — |
| Ring 1 | Attack Speed · Dexterity · Maximum Life · Resource Cost Reduction | Worldly Stability Lucky Hit Up To A 15 Chance To Restore X Primary Resource |
| Pants | Maximum Resource · All Stats · Critical Strike Chance · Attack Speed | — |
| Amulet | Ranks Brilliance · Dexterity · Attack Speed · Ranks Apex | Worldly Stability Resource Cost Reduction |
| Boots | Dexterity · Maximum Life · Armor · Movement Speed | Natural Motion Movement Speed |
| Ring 2 | Attack Speed · Dexterity · Maximum Life · Lucky Hit Up To A X Chance To Make Enemies Vulnerable For 2 Seconds | Worldly Stability Lucky Hit Up To A 15 Chance To Restore X Primary Resource |

Runes and gems
Sockets for the selected variant. A rune pair belongs together in a suitable item; socketed runes and completed Runeword equipment are different things.
| Slot | Sockets |
|---|---|
| Helm | Emerald + Emerald |
| Weapon | Poc + Xan |
| Ring 1 | Topaz |
| Pants | Ahu + Qax |
| Amulet | Ruby |
| Ring 2 | Skull |
| Chest | Emerald + Emerald |
Paragon: boards and glyphs
This list documents the selected endgame setup. Use the linked planner for exact connected individual nodes and earlier point totals. A high target glyph rank is not an entry requirement.
| No. | Board | Glyph | Target rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Starter Board | Wildfire | 100 |
| 2 | Viscous Shield | Fitness | 100 |
| 3 | Convergence | Spirit | 100 |
| 4 | Sapping | Menagerist | 100 |
| 5 | Revealing | Colossal | 100 |
Seasonal powers and Talisman package
Bloodied affixes and killstreaks replace S11 enhancements. Killstreak bonuses are not automatically permanent during single-boss fights.
| Role / slot | Selection |
|---|---|
| Farming target | Primary class stat through killstreak; re-evaluate without a streak for boss comparisons. |
Limits and safe transitions
Melee range and rebuilding resource cycling cost time against mobile bosses. A farming Bloodied bonus is not permanently active without a killstreak.
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.
