Dragon's Immortal Tank (Updated for 1.2)

Thanks a ton guys ! I got some questions about my final gear, it's basically the same as i posted back at page 103, but here it is again. Also I recorded a short video of the stats, gonna VirtualDub it into a bit smaller file and download to youtube.

Anyway, rough numbers what i had:

Armour: 43 000
Life: 5110
Energy Shield: 2800
Capped Resistances + 40% Chaos Resistance
Damage and explanation for it:

98 Level i 1 shotted myself to -Max Resistance Lightning Thorns, that happened WITHOUT life leech gem, that's a very sad thing, basically 40x 77 maps were lost for that 1 click.

99 Level same goddamn thing at 8% level, 1 shotted myself AGAIN to -Max Resistance Lightning Thorns, that's when i started to use Double Strike + Life Leech, so i didn't have to worry about Elemental Reflect and Lightning Thorns ever again.

And DPS now after release was insane 8300 without any auras, i had a regular party (thanks to you all guys!) to play with every day and a good friend playing this very same build, we shared the auras, i ran 3 defensives, he had 1 defensive and 1 offensive aura, so after i got his Hatred, my dps was at 11.9k or so.

If i had used IB + WED with this same setup, dps would have been around 20-23k, but seriously, if you guys are going to make it 100 one day, please use life leech, please use it :)



Some regen passive for BM set:



Edit. OMG Dragon, you changed title of your thread !! I'm so, i'm so taken man, really :O

gratz buddy !!!

... now that you don't need that gear, you should give away to some of us poor guys :P
gimme gimme

did you do anything epic for the 100 ding?

Wow perfect respect Congratulations!

i have one quesstion what gems have to be used juhazz i choose your build? and what auras to run?
can you please show your equip with the gems inside?
is covenant necessary?

I don't mean to be disrespectful, but the build is a mess. Were you making some tests when you ran out of regrets? Also, some 10% armour points are useless now, you should take the +damage + armour ones at least, it will boost your damage without any loss.

How about you post your ideal tree instead of bashing the build? Constructive criticism always welcomed.

I don't think he realizes that the tree in the OP was before the patch. Some nodes (mainly Berseking and IR) were moved around and so the tree is a giant mess because it's a pre-release tree.

yeah would appriciete too, if someone could post the new patch build thx

As I said before, there were some new builds on the last pages yet. But I will now also post my build adjusted to 1.0. Please mind that this is just my new build and not the new build. I don't use Infernal Blow, mostly I play with Double Strike, that is why I don't take any elemental dmg nodes.
All in all I strongly focus on the defensive aspect and neglect my offense.
So feel free to use the build as inspiration and adjust where you think it suits your playstyle better!

I don't think you realize i'm talking about the current build Juhazzz is using. Yes, it's 1.0.

I didn't bash the build, it's a really fun build. I said it seems like Juhazzz didn't fix his build after making some tests in 1.0. His choices are not optimal, but he knows it, i'm sure.

I'll give you an exemple without changing his build.

Here is the build he posted:

Here i fixed some points (you can do better if you take some time):

The difference between the two? My build has 30% incresed axe damage + 16%hp without any loss.

IMPORTANT: this is not my build, i'd sacrifice a few points (2%block points and 30% shield defense if needed be) to reach the Ranger area, then grabbing the huge Hp nodes plus better block nodes, maybe damage as well.
Edit: O, i'd get rid of the reduce mana cost nodes too, 30% armour isn't worth it, i can get it elsewhere.

Of course everything i said works only for Juhazzz because he's 100 already.

well, I'm 50ish and I'm trying to follow juhazzz build but I'm having some issues, probably due to lack of good gear, I'd be happy to see those additional changes you mention, I can't go very far into ranger area to get enough interesting stuff removing those 4-5 points you said.

Are US and IR really useful? Running both Grace and Determination looks hard
