[WE] Def spec witchelf gear progression

[Mournblade]

I'm in 5pc Dominator, with the Grimshimmer chestpiece, 3x toughness regen jewelry, and wounds Genesis cloak and jewelry.

Any recommendations on where to go from here? What does endgame look like? 4x off sov / 4x victorious (with slot 3 jewel)?

Also, am I stuck in dom until then or is would 3pc Invader / 4pc victorious work prior to sov?

hv shoulder/belt/jewel along with 4 def sov grimshimmer chest 3x fleshrender

Endgame another variant: 3 dd sov + 4 def + regen chest.
Before it you can use 3 inv + regen + rest of hv set.

Jewel, Gloves, Head or Boots (change according to comment below)

as a def WE you dont need the 2% crit on shoulders, better use HV shoulders with parry on it.
tbh dont waste crests on invader gear

dominator helm, belt, gloves, shoes + HV shoulder, jewel + regen chest + 3x fleshrender

another variant would be to replace dominator with opressor, same pieces

You're absolutely right, my mistake (editing my previous comment). Shoulders from HV is better for def WE.
About Invader - I wouldn't bother now with any of Invader/Oppressor gears, just equip HV set, get Bloodlord set for unlock and go to Sov directly. Domi still good for def so have mixed feelings about spending crests for it.

Is there a general consensus on what the best weapons are for a defensive WE build? I know the scenario weapons have regen on them, but most run the bb/be influence weapons from the people I've talked to in game.

abn-i-khat in main and hate in off
reason is you want as many auto hits as possible for your kisses to proc and also as def WE you will be kiting alot, there the snare proc comes in handy

What are the stats you wanna have for the def. spec?
And is it possible to get both weapons? They are lvl 1 rewards from BB/BE, right?

Thanks
