Blood Mythic+ - San'layn
Mythic+San'laynIcy VeinsSources disagreeOur Mythic+ build picks up Umbilicus Eternus and Deadly Reach while putting the remaining flex point into Bloodied Blade. In Mythic+ San'layn does absurd damage, as you are the tank and can optimize your route and pull-patterns around your 1:30 Gift of the San'layn window.
Swap that matters: Umbilicus Eternus → Sanguinary Burst. an additional ~400% AP damage per target at time of burst, though it occurs mid-way through Dancing Rune Weapon so its healing value is relatively low.
