User:OrbitUtmost/Sandbox/ReverberationStackerGuide

Introduction

• Hi all, this is my first guide, so sorry for any technical errors.
• TL:DR; This is for a build that comes fully online in early act 2, and pushes hard into the  Reverberation mechanic.
• This build started as something I put together for my Tactician run to make Shadowheart, who's  Trickery Domain is definitely lack-luster. Instead, we make her  Tempest Domain, which is still nice enough thematically and also packs a big punch. Tempest Cleric applications are what will be discussed for most of this build, but there will be a section at the end discussing other options for min-max.
• I'm not positive all of this works as described, some of the reverberation items are a little funky, but as of patch 4 & 5 the build feels great into early act 3, regardless of what may not be working as we want?
• I hope you enjoy knocking enemies on their asses, and let me know how I can improve the guide.

General Overview

Core Mechanics

• We want to maximize  Reverberation.
• Our engines to do so are the File:Gloves of Beligierent Skies Unfaded Icon.pngGloves of Beligierent Skies & Boots of Stormy Clamour. This means we want to apply Radiant/Thunder/Lightning damage and other conditions.
• Tempest Cleric gives us some nice spell tools for this:  Sacred Flame,  Bane,  Thunderwave,  Shatter,  Glyph of Warding,  Spirit Guardians, and  Call Lightning .
• We also take advantage of the class features:
  • Heavy armour & Martial weapons, using the
  •  Wrath of the Storm (lv2), and  Divine Strike: Tempest (lv8) for free Thunder damage.
