Gear Which set to build, cheapest first, and what to roll on the weapon. Leadership is a reforged armour stat you grind (lock it on every piece), not a flat set bonus. New to it? See crafting and honing.
Roll forSlashing damage and slashing pen on the weapon. Bonus in order, blunt damage and pen, strength, agility, crit damage, then HP and armour. Lock leadership on every armour piece.
Best runes this season Amya's picks for Chaos: A Realm Divided. Every piece holds at most 5 Rune Power, so each slot is a budget call. Open a rune for its full effect, or read the whole seasonal set on the Hero Runes page.

Guide
Playstyle
The class stacks rage thru getting hit while in defensive state (right click) and thru hitting enemies. This lets you charge and stack 4 ultimates (10s CD).
Your goal will be to stay front-lane and CC any heroes / units on CD, while being able at any time to sidestep thru units to chase heroes or exotic units: you have the phantom trait (can phase thru units with it).
Your spear throw and mounted spear throw do not share the same cooldown, so use them wisely.
Make use of shift-aa to smother combo.
