Barbarian Seismic Slam Build with Might of the Earth
Introduction
Empowered by the Might of the Earth set, this Barbarian build shatters the
ground with overwhelming Seismic Slam swings, while summons and buffs
empower his blade. This tough, sustain damage, visual feast of a build is one of
the rare instances of viable high tier ranged Barbarian play. The build is meant
for Greater Rift solo progression, but we also have a speed farming variant that
can be accessed using the link below.
