Witch Hunter Captain Build

This build is meant for Elites damage focus playstyle. With this build, you prioritize at picking up Elites with your high headshot damage. Combing with the unique passive of Witch Hunter Captain, you are one of the best Elites killer in the game. The core talent of this build is Level 10 talent Deathknell and Level 20 talent Wild Fervour. One of the MAIN reasons Victor as WITCH HUNTER CAPTAIN isnt played, is the summary at the end of an level. He just cant catch up with the damage of Sienna, Kirillian and co. In the moment its just about damage and kills.

Witch Hunter[edit]

All your life you have found Necromancers, Hags, Fiendish Warlocks and all other practitioners of evil magic abhorrent. You seek to root out and slay these monstrosities wherever they may hide. Witch hunters all have different reasons for taking up their profession. Were you hired by a king or other noble to protect their city from an evil deity or cult? Or maybe you are a cleric or paladin dedicated to seeking out all those who endorse the abomination of arcane magic? Perhaps you are a ranger seeking to further your knowledge about your favored enemies. Think about what led you to develop such a hatred. Perhaps your younger sister was abducted by a hag, and replaced with a changeling that you were then forced to kill, or your mother and father were sacrificed then raised again by a wicked mage. What are your methods? Do you imprison those you capture in pits? Burn them? Or even drag them back to your lordly master for a public execution?

4My wise words have often convinced another to step back into the light.
5I do not work for money - rich and poor alike can succumb to the temptations of Black Magic
6I look carefully over everything I see - the Dark is cunning, and but one lapse could doom the world.
