[2.2] [Updated, Uber down again] Heavy Armour Mjolner v2.0 (Build + Uber Guide)

Can this build work for a scion?

Do you think this build could do Uber with a non-legacy Mjolner? I want to try this build on the new temp leagues.

I don't think Uber can work with a non-legacy Mjolner unfortunately. Going from 50% chance to proc spells to 30% gives you a lot less flask sustain, which you need to facetank uber for an extended period of time. Even on a legacy Mjolner I still die due to running out of flask charges and had to go into a setup with more attack speed.

Although if you stack enough spell crit/global crit, and wear a rat's nest instead of alpha's howl for the uber fight, you'll probably get enough charges to sustain through the fight.

Build revamped! Now faster, stronger, and more survivable.

Do I have to use magnate or will this puppy work?

I would like to point out that when using an aegis aurora, you can easily substitute alphas for a vertex. this gives you more than a thousand ES buffer, while losing no armor, making it much easier to tank high maps.

been trying a version of this build as a duelist, unfortunately I can't use devoto's or rats nest until I get a l4 enlighten. Chest still needs some work as well.

For mapping this is fine. For uber you will have to get a magnate to sustain flask charges.

Nice idea :) I like this setup a lot against phys damage.

I'm currently using devoto's with a l3 enlighten, just need all the aura res reduction nodes from the templar and duelist clusters. I'm at around 58/680 mana unreserved, and do fine with two 2 mana gained on hit gems (4 per hit).

Hi sgw, this build is very good atm, but do you think Lightning Penetration is better than Iron Will in damage ?

I believe Iron Will is better in 98% of situations and I'm not sure about other 2%. Iron Will gives us % spell damage which we lack in tree and also buffs the fire damage from discharge.

To add to that:
Lightning Penetration is more damage than Iron Will in almost all situations, BUT since our new Mjölner-Builds pick a greater amount of Endurancecharges than Powercharges, we normally deal more firedamage.
Another point for Iron Will is, that we can easily switch in LifeLeech gem if we need it.
So Lightning Pen. gives more damage overall, but Iron Will is pretty good and makes it easy to swap around gems, plus we it boost all damage and not only Lightning Damage.
On a Version were you have more Powercharges and don't want to use LifeLeech I would use Lightning Pen.
Hope that explains it a bit further.
