General:

  • Helmet: Bee Crown: you summon locusts every time you summon bees for the same amount, but your hives no longer summon locusts. Modifiers to bees affect locusts and vice versa.
  • Weapon: High wind: Proc tornado on swipe
  • Unique: Tornado lightning conversion

Encouraging more true hybrid gameplay for beastmaster:

  • your minions now deal xx% reduced minion damagez but yy% Minion damage also applies to you
  • Minions deal -10 to +30 more damage based on how much damage or how many hits you dealt (or ailments applied) in the last 4 seconds

Breaking up the frostbite shackles + snowdrift meta for cold dot builds:

  • Belt: X Cold penetration per highest Attribute, but you can no longer convert freeze rate multiplier to cold penetration

Make vengeance relevant:

  • Weapon: Renegades Wrath: converts vengeance damage to fire damage, chance to ignite, ward on hit
  • Unique: something with iron blade

Thor's Set: Disclaimer: those are NOT 1:1 conversions. Numbers can be adjusted for balancing. The Thor set is more of a design concept than a suggestion for a 1:1 implementation. Set pieces struggle, because they have often no interesting stats themselves and cannot be legendary. The idea with the set was to create set items that

  • can be used standalone and compete with exalted or legendaries
  • have different bonuses for different combinations
  • have good build variety, so you might want to build around one item or an item combination

Items:

  • Hammer Mjölnir: lightning pen per strength
  • Glove Járngreipr: Attack Speed (melee + throwing) per dexterity
  • Belt Megingjörð: 0.1% lightning damage leeched per vitality

Set Bonus:

  • H+G: increased CRIT chance per shock chance
  • G+B: Lightning spell damage per int
  • H+B: electrify chance per attunement
  • All: increased lightning DMG per Attribute point

Other set ideas: normally not possible dual wielding combos:

  • Holy hammers: dual wield hammer set (circumventing dual wielding requirements, but you still take more damage)
  • Any other cool combination like dual wand, mace and hammer
