[R.I.P.] life Mjolner done right by Rico - Juggernaut version - R.I.P. thx to "balancing" policy
" I feel you man, finally got to 98 in standard. This is taking forever at this stage to level up, but you just don't die with this build, haven't died once in the last month, doing all kinds of map mods and tier. I am farming elder over and over, probably killed him 50 times already, not died once to his guardians or the elder himself. I never lose.

Ya thats why ive stayed with it and continued to add more life, regen, physical defense and ES. I never had 1 of those 1mil+ shaper dps builds, I was coming off Sovyn's lazy pally and a generic TS ranger build so the dps never felt that bad to me.
I cant play anything else atm, I dont have the time or $ to redo entire days of play b/c of the random nonsense or spike damage that 1 shots you on other builds. |

Wow that was unexpected, just got a perfect rolled 120/120 - 40/40 mjollner for 1.5ex, ive been watching poe.goods for a few weeks and they have held at 20-25ex, for the old 40% stun duration and new 15% threshold ones.

The 40% to lightning damage doesn't work with Discharge, why is it so important to have a perfect roll?

Its not, ive just been trying to collect all the uniques for the build in perfect rolls, 1.5ex on standard is like 15 cents, its all monopoly money over there.

Thank you for the guide and all the great community input. I have a couple of questions, referencing that I am on Standard, Character DragonzSmash(89). I am also following closer to JCOH53 build because I am wanting to play it a bit more safe and level this guy to 95; which is taking forever.
The Watcher's Eye jewel. Should one of the Physical be lightning, or is fire and Ice ok? Based on my current level and gear what improvements should I make before trying Shaper and guardians? |

" With that additional curse Voll's the first thing you should do is change your boot 4 link to vengeance + curse on hit + elemental weakness + enfeeble. After that id say pick up a spell damage shaped ring, doesnt have to be crazy, you can find budget ones for 20c to 2ex, the important part is 31-35% spell damage obviously. (if your on Standard just buy the cheapest i82 shaped ring you can find and spam alteration orbs on it until you get a 31-35 roll, then just slap whatever you need onto it with crafted rolls) I dont see an abyss jewel in your stygian vise on your character sheet, thats another 46-50 life and 3 additional rolls your missing out on. The watchers eye doesnt matter, it can be any combo of fire, ice or lightning for the physical to elemental damage conversions. The hardest part gear wise is really at the end of your tree, if you notice I carry 9 jewels, thats how to bypass this builds 1 drawback, average dps. With 9 jewels I have room for my intuitive leap and double physical reduction watchers eye while leaving myself room for; +196% Spell Damage +43% Attack Speed +70% All Elemental Resist (or any combo of other resists or increments of 7% life) The 4 line god jewels are very very rare and can run as much as 6 exalted per, thats where you can get crazy expense wise later on. Overall though you seem to be in good shape, I notice you picked up occultist's dominion like me, that is great b/c that extra 30 INT along with 25 on youre spare ring and an 8% roll on your Inya's will let you use a corrupted Voll's and switch it out on easy maps for a Bisco's for farming purposes, thats what I do.

From whispers I get in-game and various posts in the thread I think theres a common miss-conception that I have some advanced or superior version of this build, thats honestly not the case.
In real life I have severe carpal tunnel in my left wrist and both my hands have taken a beating from years and years of heavy online gaming and real life work so my reflexes and overall physical dexterity gaming wise is pretty sub-par. In combination with poor reflexes I hadnt really played PoE much overall, the builds I had tried all ended up being trash in end-game so I never had a chance to learn the mechanics on encounters like the Shaper. With these factors in mind all I did was remove Righteous Fire and eliminate the weapon swap. My goal was simply to be able to facetank end-game content since I either A: could not physically react to an 1HKO mechanic in time or B:did not know about a 1HKO mechanic. To do this I just added a bit more life, regen, and mitigation. I never had problems dps wise b/c I stacked ALOT of spell damage, mainly through my jewels and used my 6th body link for Culling Strike to shave 10% off boss HP. Outside of Uber Atziri I have easily, stupidly easily face tanked all the content. At some point I will watch some you tube videos on Uber Atziri but to this point ive just never tried it. I have never once in game gotten a single piece of the mortal drop set through normal game play and have had no motivation to spend 50 chaos on 1 of the fragments, ecspecially with the Acuity Gloves being trash now after all the nerfs and changes to VP. So aside from that specific fight I know for a fact that this build is an absolute beast and will let you easy mode the game, sadly every build in the forums says that, and 95% of them are trash outside of blowing up trash mobs 2 screens away.

" Thank you for the input. I currently have warlord's mark in the vengeance setup due to having Elemental weakness on my repentance. Of course, if that on hit isn't triggering due to the aura's then I am just being mental. Agreed on my abyss jewel. I have been waiting to get one until I settle on what additional rolls I need. Thanks for the Watchers heads up, I will be getting one soon. |
