Not using mageblood or HH - although I regularly map with HH, just want to showcase using a rare belt

Total budget: 100-150ex, although most rares are self crafted and fairly niche and you wouldn't be able to buy.

Sims are so consistently deathless for me that I'm levelling from 99-100 on pure sims alone. This build has:

• insane survivability, 90 max all res, 76% chaos res, 95% evasion, 43% block, 30% dodge from elusive, but most importantly, 100% physical damage taken as elemental damage, so even super high damage hits don't do anything. Also ailment immune because I'm running purity of elements.

• insane clear (standard LS berserker)

• decent DPS - 54 mil dps with totems up, 45 milish without totems (mapping)

Key items

• Dawnbreaker - 20% (26-28% with corruption) phys taken as ele, almost 50% block, and 10% scorch on block (pretty consistent when you have 50% block)

• Tasalio's jewel - 20% phys taken as fire, 20% increased life recovery

• Omniscience - your damage and res

• Melding of the flesh - so you can get 90% max all res

• Purity of elements watchers eye

All my items are already fairly minmaxed to achieve this but you can get 70% of this build on 50 ex budget easily

Q: Why no transcendence if you have 100% phys as ele?

A: Loreweave sacrifices too much as a body, and you have to make up for the 15% phys as ele somewhere else which makes it very hard. Also in super hard content, hard hits still melt armor way more so you end up having less mitigation than 90% max all res. You're also way more vulnerable to DoTs since armor doesnt reduce it

Q: Why no interrogation?

A: I'm already close to crit capped, and omniscience providing 100+ pen lowers the value of scorch by a lot (not to mention you get 10% for free from shield). Chill is also a stronger mechanic than sap IMO.

Q: Is this a copy of Ruetoo's dawnbreaker zerker build?

A: No i made this before rue started his, his version is worse because it's a budget build, this is not budget build
