T'Challa rules the technologically advanced African kingdom of Wakanda. In addition to having peak human physical abilities, his mystical link to the Panther God grants him superhumanly acute senses and allows him to also wear the ceremonial mantle of the Black Panther.Marvel Source
Black Panther must balance his duties as a king with his responsibilities as a hero. This tension occasionally strains his standing with his allies in the Avengers, as well as the respect of his own people.
Slot1- This for me boiled down to two choices. Knives of Z or Dragonfang. Knives was just under a 3% dps gain over the fang but some of the extra utility of the dragon fang has me using it. The defense proc on orb pickup can really boost your defenses and the bubble removal is handy if farming juggernaut. Hard to go wrong with either. Ebony blade offers some nice healing but with no investment into the first tree it doesn't work for this build.
Slot2- Thrice Blessed Armor is bis by far here. With +6 skills to our tree with the most points invested in it it's hard not to use it. all the other affixes are great also.
Slot3- Blessed Belt of the Panther God. Another pretty much no brainer. Will keep Jungle snare at max 40 pretty easily plus it gives boost to frenzy, ss, and nice additions to a few of our 1 pointers also. Health and defensive affixes are awesome and spirit reduction helps with us going basicless.
Slot4- If you have them Footstigons is the best choice here, If not then Ninja Tabi if you have it. Obviously those are fairly hard to get. If neither it boils down to the Unique boots or a nicely rolled cosmic. We don't use movement skills and can get more out of a cosmic but if you don't have a good cosmic the uniqes are a good holdover. Ideal cosmic roll, Health, Spirit, +frenzy, + sweep, + savage strike, Cosmic might proc (bulwark is good too). Last affix can really be anything ideally an ever elusive +1 skills but that's kind of a pipe dream.
Slot5- It took a while but Eyepiece is finally better then most cosmic rolls. an extremely well rolled cosmic would have me rethinking this but I don't have one of those. Necklace has no place in this build unless you want to use it just for a quick swap for snapshotting.
Legendary- Excalibur. Even with no melee tag on Jungle Snare or our ultimate it's still the best option for our build. The defense and loh coupled with what is better dps increase than Gungnir for us is an easy choice.
Costume Affixes- 1-4 go crit dmg all the way.
Medallion- With the duration increase no longer affecting ultimates I have finally swapped away from Dr. Doom on BP and now run a Tombstone Medallion. Cosmic Tombstone can be very hard to find so consider a Cosmic Kingpin as an easier to acquire option.
Uru-Forged- Base defense uru. Runewords are pretty hard to choose from. To best sustain spirit and keep defense high I use Lunar Eclipse. The new all-father's glory looks nice too but not sure I can handle the spirit issues it might bring.
Ring- A cosmic with 1-2 good stats will beat an epic with 4 stats so use a cosmic. Look for Health, Crit dmg, melee dmg crit rating as your main 4.
Insignia- Crystal is my choice here. It gives both defense and some dmg rating and a nice healthy chunk of move speed. Ideal affixes would be health and crit dmg (still looking in vain for one of these).
