Warrior/Knight Help Melee Rikter Warrior

So I tried looking for dps warrior builds, and one of the things I saw were alkatraz melee builds. Because of alka's high earth base damage, it tended to do a lot of damage. Unfortunately, I cannot afford a mythic right now, as I am kind of poor. That is why I came up with this build: It doesn't use any hive items, any li items, and not even a mythic! I would however like an improved version of the build for later use. If you have any suggestions, please tell me! https://wynndata.tk/s/7nMbjw

EDIT: Link changed to not include powders

 

https://wynndata.tk/s/YEkjqM (also doesn't use Hive, LI, or Mythics)

General convention when posting builds is to leave armor unpowdered, unless the build specifically relies on armor powder specials to function.

 

up to 10k dps (uses Prowess)
less dps build not using Prowess (get Prowess one if you can though)

 

I made this idk what to think of it but hey at least its semi interesting. And it doesn't use anything related with LI or Hive so that's cool I guess.

without hive:

without tierstack:

-it says 3600 dps, but your quakes almost double it, bringing you to around 6800 dps, which is still not that great, but it's pretty cool i guess.
-also, you have a ton of extra sp that could be used to boost your defensiveness or damage so that's nice
-you also have a ton of pierce from damage stack
-lowered chance for carpal tunnel

Spoiler: calculations for dps

i'll round down to 3600 dps
3825 * 2 = 7650 per hit
7650 * 4.15 = 31750 (slightly less but eh) quake

quake takes 6 seconds to charge, another 2 seconds to activate, so in 8 seconds you get
3x melee
1x quake

7650 * 3 + 31750 = 54700/8 secs
which leads to
6800 dps


this is compared to say, build #2 where:
9250/3.1 = 3000 melee hit
3000*4.15 = 12450 quake
takes 6 seconds to charge quake, .31 seconds to activate it
so, you get
18 melee hits and 1 quake in 6.31 seconds = 66255dps/6.3 sseconds = 10500 dps
so not that much of a buff from quake, but it does still have higher dps.

 

A Rikter tierstack build with one (1) hive items from air div (~12k dps) : https://wynndata.tk/s/uNtfha
but i would say fire makes for more interesting tierstack builds, diaminar and ignition
anyway don't trust my builds but in general tierstack for super/very slow and tierstack/raw melee for anything above
also it was surprisingly hard to build melee without hive/li lmao
