Dragon's Immortal Tank (Updated for 1.2)

how much dps do you thing you can have with the new axe?

Thanx for the build Dragon! I love melee and my LS Templar was hard to play with desync... so I retired my LS Templar at lvl 67 and started Mara using your build as a guide. Currently I'm lvl 82 and having a blast playing melee again. It's definitely tankier and can withstand desync issues without any problems. Although I one shotted myself to death with "relect 20% ele damage" mod on a group of elemental rock monsters. LOL

I'm still looking for that elusive 6L chest armor!!! Can't wait to eqiup one so that I can replace mana leach gem with Faster Atks and BM gem.

Thanx again for the great build!!! =]

hey dragon first off want to say thanks for the build, and great job. i have been playing it for a few weeks now and have enjoyed this game more now than i ever have..been playing since closed beta.

i also wanted to share my gear and my skill tree for anyone who may be looking for an alternative to the 6 link chest. i am currently saving up for one now. i do platy standard league so u might keep that in mind also.

here is my gear


as u can see i have the new axe. i was very lucky and was able to chance it in about 20 tries. i run 6 auras and temptest shield. currently with the auras up my tooltip dps for infernal blow is 17339. my attacks per second is 7.35, and my armour is just under 10k.
so far i have been able to solo lvl 74 maps with no problems except for reflect ele dmg.

and my skill tree


i did change a couple things here and there but didn't stray to far from what you had suggested.

If I can manage the new axe that's pretty much the build I will be using as well. I started as duelist instead though. Been chancing every siege axe i see.

You might want to consider putting just one point into the 5% less mana reserve right above the axe nodes. For one point you can run a extra aura. Well worth it I think.

thanks for the advice but where would i put the gem? thats a problem i have ran into using bringer of rain. u don't have as many gem slots.

Hmm good point forgot you were using bringer of rain. Only real place I could think of would be where enduring cry is. Not sure about you but I hardly use it anymore.

Guys this i want to show for every fellow Marauder out there ! Bringing honour to this build !

77 Shrine map piety, 4 additional projectiles.. 6 player solo boss :D

I forgot Kripp's stream open when i recorded, it's them speaking, none of our party is speaking there, tho you can hear Reeeeeep when the ranger dies, but that's just kinda lucky coincidence :p

Juhazzz,
Nice video, can you link your gear?

Brilliant and fun to play build, thank you for showing it to public! I've adopted it to my templar and it works just fine. The only disadvantage which keeps me away from playing this build every time when i have couple hours to spend in Wraeclast, is magicfind. Ofcourse you might get insane rolls on your gear and get hp/res/armor/evasion + IIR/IIQ, but I don't see any way to get those IIR/IIQ values even close to Dual Spork build values reachable with much less effort. I wish grinding gear could be possible with melee builds.
