Devastation Demon Hunter - PVE Guide - Patch 8.0.1


lvl 99

  • demonic appetite: Chaos Strike has a chance to spawn a Lesser Soul Fragment. Consuming any Soul Fragment grants 30. of fury.
  • macula leaf: Charge toward your target, dealing (66.69% of Attack power) Fire damage. Demon Bite has a chance to reset the cooldown of Tainted Blade. Generates 30 p. of fury.
  • blind fury: Eye Beam generates 40. Fury per second and its duration is increased by 50%.

The talents to choose from are macula leaf y blind fury according to the type of encounter.

For general use and in unitarget macula leaf.

For multitarget blind fury.

lvl 100

  • insatiable appetite: Demon Bite generates up to 10. of extra fury.
  • demon blades: Your auto attacks have a 60% chance to deal bonus Shadow damage and generate Fury.
  • aura of immolation: Engulfs you in flames, instantly dealing (24.57% of Attack power) p. Fire damage to enemies within 8 radius (9.1728% of Attack power) for me. Fire damage every second. Lasts 10 sec. Generates 80 p. of fury for 10 sec.

aura of immolation It is the best talent for general use highlighting in multitarget.

Another viable talent is demon blades that eliminates demon bite of your rotation to speed it up but it does not stand out as much in damage and would be relegated to a more unitarget use.

lvl 102

  • ruin trail: Blade Dance's final blow deals (56% of Attack power) p. additional Chaos damage over 4 sec.
  • vile barrage: Unleash a torrent of fel energy for 3 sec, dealing [(13) * (22% of Attack power)] p. Chaos damage to all enemies within 8 yards.
  • vile mastery: Increases the damage of Fel Charge by 100%.

ruin trail is the best talent of the branch, increasing the damage of leaf dance, essential skill within your rotation, and in synergy with talent first low.

vile barrage It was another very good talent but with the damage reduction and cd increase it is not as attractive as the previous one.

lvl 104

  • abyssal road: You slide into the Void, increasing movement speed by 100% and making you immune to damage, but you cannot attack. Lasts 5 sec.
  • desperate instincts: Dispel now reduces damage taken by an additional 15%. Additionally, you automatically activate Dispel when your health is below 35%. This effect can only occur if Dispel is not on cooldown.
  • soul tearing: Your refund is increased by 10%. Gain 10% more restore while Metamorphosis is active.

Optional survival branch. Choose the one that best suits your game.

lvl 106

  • hate cycle: When Chaos Strike returns Fury, it also reduces the cooldown of Metamorphosis by 3 sec.
  • first low: Reduces 20 p. The Fury cost of Blade Dance and increases its damage to p. against the first target hit.
  • dark gash: Slashes an enemy, dealing (53.703% of Attack power) p. Physical damage and increases the damage of your Chaos Strike by 40% for 8 sec.

It is best first low. Makes a good combination with talent ruin trail, reducing its cost and increasing its damage.

lvl 108

  • glaive: Throw Glaive now has 2 charges and slows all enemies hit by 50% for 6 sec.
  • power: Removes Chaos Nova's Fury cost and reduces its cooldown by (- 20000/600)%.
  • demon: Impales the target for (32.76% of Attack power). Chaos damage, stunning it for 4 sec.

Like branch 104, another optional branch for adding control. Choose the one that best suits your game.

lvl 110

  • inercia: Fel Charge increases your damage dealt by 15% for 6 sec. Vengeful Retreat's cooldown is reduced by 5 sec and generates 80. of fury for 10 sec if it damages at least one enemy.
  • nemesis: Increases the damage you deal to the target by 20% for 1 min. When the target dies, you will deal 20% more damage against all creatures of the same type as the original target (Humanoid, Dragonkin, etc.) during its remaining time.
  • demoniac: Eye Beam causes you to change into a demon form for 5 seconds after it finishes dealing damage.

The 3 talents are really good but we will go one by one according to importance.

nemesis It is the one that stands out the most of the three. 1 min with + 20% damage helps a lot in bosses even if we have to "sacrifice" it for 2 min of dc if it is not killed. He is also thinking for multi since most of the time the groups of adds being of the same race we would focus on one to finish it off and get another + 20% but globally to all that race (even sometimes the boss shares the same race that your adds).

demonic is another good talent but it "forces" you to choose talent in branch 99 blind fury to get the most out of it.

inercia it can be profitable in multi but the damage bonus is not as impressive as the previous one. What we highlight about this talent compared to the previous ones is the low cooldown since it depends on vile-charge.
