All Slayer Warrior Hero Talents

The Slayer is a vicious Warrior who sets their sights on a target and pursues it relentlessly, overwhelming foes with an onslaught of might and steel. With a focus on Fury, here’s the Slayer Warrior Hero Talents:

  • Slayer’s Dominance (Passive) – Your attacks have a high chance to overwhelm your target’s defenses and trigger a Slayer’s Strike, dealing 8,634 damage and applying Marked for Execution, increasing the damage they take from your next Execute by 10%. Stacks 3 times.
  • Imminent Demise (Passive) – Sudden Death’s chance to reset the cooldown of Execute and make it usable on any target, regardless if health is increased. Using Sudden Death accelerates your next Bladestorm, striking 1 additional time (max 3). Bladestorm’s total duration is unchanged.
  • Overwhelming Blades (Passive) – Each strike of Bladestorm applies Overwhelmed to all enemies affected, increasing damage you deal to them by 1% for 20 sec, max 10 stacks.
  • 2 Possible Choices:
    • CHOICE 1: Relentless Pursuit (Passive) – Charge removes all movement impairing effects and grants you 70% movement speed for 3 sec.
    • CHOICE 2: Vicious Agility (Passive) – Heroic Leap reduces the cooldown of Charge by 5 sec and Charge reduces the cooldown of Heroic Leap by 5 sec.
  • Death Drive (Passive) – You heal for 50% of damage dealt by Sudden Death.
    • CHOICE 1: Slayer Reflexes (Passive) – Slayer’s Strikes have a 50% chance to reset the cooldown of Bloodthirst and Overpower.
    • CHOICE 2: Constant Pressure (Passive) – Cooldown of Bloodthirst and Overpower reduced by 10%.
  • 2 Possible Choices:
    • CHOICE 1: Tunnel Vision (Passive) – Your auto attack speed increases by 2% every 3 sec while you are in combat up to a max of 20%. Changing targets resets this effect.
    • CHOICE 2: Thrill of the Kill (Passive) – Execute increases your auto attack speed by 30% for 10 sec.
  • Slay (Passive) – Marked for Execution increases the critical strike chance and critical strike damage of your next Execute on the target by 10%.
  • Frenetic Flurry (Passive) – Bloodthirst and Overpower have a chance to cause you to unleash a brief empowered Bladestorm, striking all enemies around you once for 250% additional damage.  You can now use Pummel and Storm Bolt while Bladestorming.
  • Slayer’s Focus (Passive) – Bloodthirst and Overpower damage increased by 20%.
  • Unrelenting Onslaught (Passive) – When you Execute a target that you’ve Marked for Execution, you both reduce the cooldown of Bladestorm by 5 sec and apply 2 stacks of Overwhelmed to the target per stack of Marked for Execution consumed.
