[R.I.P.] life Mjolner done right by Rico - Juggernaut version - R.I.P. thx to "balancing" policy
So yesterday I just randomly used a couple of fusings on my Kingsguard and made a 6L ater about 30. I didn't really expect that to happen with the lousy 100 fuse I had at the moment so I'm obviously a bit surprised and not entirely sure what to do.
I run a 5L with RF in the 6th socket and Vengeance/CoH/Ele Weakness/Enfeeble in the 4L instead of the RF 4L (with Whispers of Doom instead of the adjacent jewel slot). So Now I have 3 options (as far as I can see) and would like to know which one you think is best: Keep the 5L with RF Drop RF in favour of a 6th link (Culling Strike) Drop dual curse and use RF instead of Enfeeble What would you do? PS: As a side note, because it was asked on the previous page: I run 3 Purities with a lvl 2 Enlighten. It leaves you with 3 or 4% Mana. Because of that I dropped Leap Slam for Blood Magic and I don't use a golem (as I feel it does not at all fit the playstyle because it dies pretty much all the time even with quality) |

" They changed the name (or switched the names between two different keystones to be more specific) so planner points into wrong direction right now. Use the screenshot.

" 6th link is additional accuracy support or culling strike, dealer's choice. I never had any issues maintaining a flame golem on my juggernaut, its a free 20% or so damage your giving away but if you really despise them its not going to make or break the build. As far as RF goes your going to get split opinions, Rico likes it, I know alot of the people in the thread dont including myself, however alot of people are used to running it on other types of builds and are comfortable with it and maintaining it so again, thats really up to you. I took the build to 95 and 97 on two different Juggernauts, to 83 on an Scion, and currently to 90 on this Witch and have never used it personally.

I agree with the guy above. Running flame golem is kind of a pain as it dies way too frequently at high end maps, essentially being used for only a several seconds on bosses. Although, without enlighten lvl 4, I can only get it to as high as level 9 flame golem (17% inc+ damage). Do juggernauts just cast it constantly to make it work? I still have it on my ring though just because it's extra dps.
After I get shaper belt, what else should I aim for? I can aim for a six-link kingsguard or watcher's eye with 1 (or 2) purities. |

" I dont know how many times it has to be said: golem for juggernaut is 100% optional. It doesnt provide significant dps boost just little bit. Juggernaut can live and kill without golem friend :) RF is optional as well but highly recommended vs large hp bosses like Minotaur. Build has enough defences and life sustain to facetank T16 Mino, his rocks, and all that mayhem while under RF. And RF is very serious dps boost. It is worth 20 golems if they would stack. If someone thinks that RF provides just burning dmg than he is wrong. RF first and most important is a huge DPS boost for Discharge as it provides 39%+ MORE dmg. And as we know "more" dmg sourcess are multipliers to total dmg, they dont stack with other "increases", they multiply them. If somone choose to not use RF - ok! But for me it is to good to pass on it, especially that this build can handle it when in combat. I hope I made myself clear regarding this subject :) Latest guides: 3.11 Loki's Rainbownuke: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2904155 3.7 CI CoC Discharge: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2605608 3.7 Juggernaut life Mjolner: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1846362 Last edited by RicoKGB#5871 on Mar 16, 2018, 7:19:17 AM

" you could always play around with replacing increased duration in your cwdt setu. level 5 cwdt would support level 7 golem, which is 17%. |

So just to make things clear, if u guys had to compare mara and witch, whos stronger/better. Can u sum up some comparison?
Also my interest is from the perspective of endgame bosses, i guess witch will come out better since the better dmg, rugjt? Last edited by m0tY#4520 on Mar 16, 2018, 11:13:22 AM

Witch by far according to JCOH and Rico is now trying it out also I think the perma golem buffs are pretty sweet

Just a quick question I was lucky enough to get a +1 curse voll's. However, due to socket constraints, i'm not entirely sure as to what the second curse I should use or rather how I should use. As currently, a ele weakness repentance is currently too much money how should I go about using the +1 curse?
Link to my current solution (ive removed the blade vortex in place of a second curse as i dont think im short on charge generation from the hit, but i could be wrong) Last edited by ExiledOdyssey#4241 on Mar 16, 2018, 1:16:52 PM
