For boots, bonus ranks to kick, movement speed, and a flexible third attribute are recommended. Tempering weapons should prioritize bash cleave damage and berserking damage up to 300%. Offensive slots should focus on damage to close enemies, while resource slot tempers need war cry cooldown reduction for 100% uptime. Defensive slot recommendations include cooldown reduction for challenging skills.
