Talent guides/PvM/Melee mid game
This PvM build uses 140 talent points to maximize DPS for no-damage encounters and Slayer, ideal for bosses like the Giant mole and Thermonuclear smoke devil.
Renewal and Holey Vestments provide near-infinite prayer regeneration, though some gear with a prayer bonus is needed to fully sustain an overhead prayer.
The build relies on using a Rock cake or similar item to lower your HP, activating the Berserker talent for a significant DPS boost. It also uses Aggression and Precision to exploit enemy weaknesses. If you aren't fighting enemies with a weakness, Unnatural Selection and Firebender are good alternatives to meet the Tier 5 point requirement.
Alternatively, if you're concerned about taking damage or don't want to use a Rock cake, you can replace the Tier 5 talents with Guardian or Executioner.
