Doomed are the fools who attack the peace and exhaust the restraint of this reluctant warrior.

Searing Slams | Steel Path Pillage Strip + Heat Inherit Serene Storm Heavy Slam Baruuk

Shards:
2 Cast Speed
3 Melee Critical Damage
OPTIONAL:
1. Three Tauforged Power Strength to remove Umbral Intensify for Archon Vitality OR;
2. Three Tauforged Power Strength to swap Ready Steel for Corrosive Projection and do one tap full strip on Pillage OR;
3. Swap [Blind Rage] instead of [Umbral Intensify] and swap Ready Steel for Corrosive Porjection to do one tap full strip on Pillage.

Low duration Pillage allows you to quickly spam it without decasting once it goes out. At 30% duration, Pillage will have a final range of 23.6 meters. Casting Pillage twice allows for full strip at 200% strength.

[Baruuk] hardly needs energy max at 150% energy efficiency as Serene Storm costs no energy and the other abilities have low cost. Endless Lullaby is an option to continuously reduce Restraint however Desolate Hands already fills this role since it reduces restraint by 1.6% every time it disarms enemies or latches onto your companion.

Bring a heat inherit primer since we are using Reactive Storm on Desert Wind to proc heat DoT damage, and the primer will push the heat DoTs damage even further.

With the update to slam attacks, [Baruuk]'s Desert Wind enjoys a very beefy heavy slam attack. This is why we can go Ready Steel and Corrupt Charge to hit 3x heavy multiplier.

You can use a statstick for this build to take advantage of Gladiator Set mod bonus. Anything that can have Gladiator Might, Gladiator Rush, and Gladiator Vice, For example: https://overframe.gg/build/505413/

At 3x initial combo multiplier, Gladiator Set bonus gives 60% additional crit chance, along with Sacrificial Steel's 440% crit chance on heavy attacks, Desert Wind will have a critical chance of 50%x(1+4.4+0.6) = 300%, which is just enough to hit tier 3 red crits. This coupled with Seismic Slam, and how it is multiplicative to Primed Pressure Point will make the heavy attack deal a huge amount of damage. The heat dots from this slam alone are enough to hit the millions with pillage stripping. Adding a heat inherit primer will push those DoTs even higher.

Nira's Set Mods such as Nira's Hatred apply +100% melee damage to slam attacks that is Additive to both Primed Pressure Point/Sacrificial Pressure and Seismic Wave. Making this mod a current must have for an additional 1.8x damage. Another alternative to doubling heat DoT damage is using Archon Vitality as all heat procs applied abilities, like Serene Storm are doubled.

You can run Arcane Strike over Molt Augmented if you feel like you don't need more status chance on [Desert Wind].

Adding Archon Vitality onto Nira's Hatred would then make the heat dots that are already 1.8x in damage, have an additional 2x multiplier for being procced twice, for a total of 3.6x damage on heat dots. NOTE: To add both Archon Vitality and Nira's Hatred on to this build, you MUST have 3 tauforged crimson archon shards all in ability strength so you can remove Umbral Intensify.

Another alternative is to go a one cast pillage strip build, this would require hitting 328% Strength with Molt Augmented and the aura Corrosive Projection. You will need to either run Blind Rage instead of Umbral Intensify which may reduce your efficiency levels. Or if you're using three tauforged strength shards, you can hit 328% this way as well. Keep in mind this requires removing Ready Steel, so this will reduce your heavy slam damage by 50% in exchange for a somewhat faster Time-To-Kill on enemies.

You will need a specific Mod setup for Desert Wind since it is part of a heat inherit slam build.
