Been enjoying this build thoroughly.
I played back towards PoE launch and I'm just getting back into the game.
I had a pair of legacy facebreakers already on hand so I gave this a shot.
Starting to finish upgrading gems but feeling a bit squishy at maps T8/9 and I'm not to reds yet. Any suggestions for improvements?

Spoiler

I'm also thinking about swapping the lesser of the two rings for this once I'll still be capped on resists from jewels:

seems like the DPS would be way higher with this than with another dmg ring.

Got the Tukohama's for 1 exalt the other day and it's definitely worth it for mapping.
The other two shields seem good too; not sure which to keep on swap and when to use it though.

I also self-corrupted a decent belt ( note the higher physical damage ). This seems better than just another endurance charge, right?

I'm not sure how to link jewels here (do I need to unequip them to inventory to do so?).

Appreciate any feedback on how to proceed at higher map tiers. Thanks for the great guide. Even if I don't clear all content with this character it's been an excellent foray back into the game.

I have a question that I have tried to search this to find the answer to no avail. First off I'm a brand new player been playing about 5 days...now when a new league starts everyone will be in the same boat that I am with 0 gear and no help. Is it me or is the grind to 31 for the totems like super super slow...maybe I'm doing something wrong but following the said advice but it takes forever to level compared to when I just tried the minion zombie summoning build.

P.S. I do play hardcore so when my guy dies I start over.

Thanks -- characters should be unhidden now; didn't realize that it was.

I'm at 6k life at 89 but there's still a decent amount of room for life upgrades in my jewels.
Is there a ballpark HP target to shoot for before hitting red maps?

Elemental resistances are maxed but chaos resistance is pretty much ignored. I don't see anything about chaos resist in the build overview. How should I take chaos resistance into consideration?

Understood with regards to not facetanking. Everything seems to go pretty well with mapping, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything major with regards to handling higher tier maps and big boss fights. Thanks for the feedback.

Never played Facebreaker, I'm interested for Delve.

It's not very clear to me what are the differences between the Zerker and Chieftain versions. Can you summarize the highlights of each ?
