About

The Forged Weapons Forge Guard is a fun high potential build that is capable of clearing all pinnacle content and can comfortably farm 1,200+ Corruption. Jump from pack to pack with your Void Cleave to boost your forged weapons via the Molten Blades node. Maintain Symbols of Hope manually for the persistent buff they provide.

The loot filter can be found here.
