Hunter Build with Blade Storm – This is how you shred everything in close combat in the endgame

Are you a hunter and finally want to play something other than the Screw Blades in Diablo 4? Then try the Blade Storm. This one is deadly, effective and a lot of fun.

Updated July 28th: This build has been adjusted for Season 1. Active and passive skills have been updated, and aspects and paragon boards have been replaced. We also listed the necessary hearts towards the end of the build.

What build is this? Hunters can stab enemies in their flurry of blades with this Bladestorm build. In addition, this talent relies on melee combat and is perfectly designed for managing crowd control or even sifting through bosses.

The Blade Storm is primarily intended for players who finally want to venture into the fray and are fed up with the raids in the nightmare dungeons.

    How to play the build: Depending on the type of opponent, you use either Dash or Shadowstep to venture into the fray. Shadow Infusion is used for weaker enemy groups, while Poison Infusion is perfect for bosses or champions.

    Your task now is to make your opponents vulnerable with Puncture, then increase your combo points and then smash the opponents with an infusion and the blade storm. In this way, all enemies become vulnerable and suffer from the effects that you can cause with the infusion.
