Patch family 3.0; level 70. Source variant: Mythic Uniques. Author revision: 2026-05-29T06:46:37. 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

Use Sigil of Summons and Valloch to establish summons, maintain Umbral Chains at the target and cast Hell Fracture into the prepared window. Bombardment and Apocalypse add damage. This bar has no Nether Step; choose safe positions before setup.

Stats, tempering and upgrade order

Make the demon/set chain functional before expensive Mythics. Then improve critical multipliers, resource sustain and summon uptime. Players still using the Command Fallen/Nether Step starter bar should not swap only the Mythic items in isolation.

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

Warlock is first available in S13. Later Greater Demon multiplier changes alter this setup; do not assume unchanged S14 performance.

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.
