[R.I.P.] life Mjolner done right by Rico - Juggernaut version - R.I.P. thx to "balancing" policy

Thanks for the build, Rico.This is my 5th charter this league and my last in abyss, my 2 league goals are a lvl 95 char and a hh . Build is very safe to farm all mods ezcept reflext. Only boss im araid to use rf is spider forst boss because of her spike damage some times .
Im farming t14 vaults and spider forest most of time .

Just got lvl 93.

Prety basic gear. I crafted all m jewels .

Finally got the combo of rolls I wanted on my abyss jewel for my belt, cant use it yet though until i upgrade my shaped ring. Eventually I will go back to cold damage on the ring so i can get this on;



Between my health (over 6.3k atm and still not done with life nodes), regen and mitigation im 20x stronger then I was on standard with this build, cant believe how easymode this has gotten.

I like this enchant better aswell, used to chase the penetration but with so many bosses spamming adds this enchant gives me the bonus nearly 100% of the time and with my life pool its quite a boost.


Some of the stuff is going to be really hard for people to get though, i know the double physical reduction Watcher Eyes have climbed to 15-20ex if you can even find one.

How does one link their items into the chat box?

Recently, I started doing some maps after finally getting some time to begin them. I'm legit having the easiest time doing tier 10 maps when I was level 75 with barely 4k HP and nearly capped resistances; the amount of facetanking and leech is kinda disgusting now that I can actually play the build properly.

I don't have the damage output just yet (if I can link my items to show everyone...) since I'm rather poor after the Voll's Devotion purchase. I'm looking for a better ring to cap resistances and a higher HP roll with something extra on the side, such as spell damage or magic find. I realized with the abundance of Abyss Jewels this league, I can find a decent "X cold damage to attacks" paired with something like spell damage, attack speed, and/or maximum life or resistances or something with "X while holding a shield".

So this got me thinking about a few things that I never really tried.

-Righteous Fire. How important is it to have as part of the build?

-Flask setup. If I'm not (currently) using the Righteous Fire setup, what are some reasonably good choices besides The Wise Oak and Atziri's Promise?

-Shield Charge + Leap Slam. How necessary is it to pair these with Faster Attacks? The build already has a lot of passive attack speed buffs from nodes and jewels, so why not pair your mobility skills with Blood Magic? In this situation, you wouldn't have to worry about needing mana to cast them.

Blood Magic isnt needed with the movement skills b/c the cost is already trivial and well below your natural mana regeneration, the faster attacks linked to them has nothing to do with your global attack speed, it simply increases the speed of the shield charge and leap slam b/c the entire point of them is to get you from point A to B faster.

To link your gear just click on your photo in the upper left, then in your inventory/character sheet click once on the item you wish to link then exit out back to the forum and the item will be linked.

Righteous fire is intended to be used on bosses but its not manditory, never set it up or used it personally but thats up to you aswell as the flasks. 1 flask i recommend though for anyone would be

Is this build at all viable in the short term without Voll's? BY viable i mean capable of farming the 100 odd chaos ill need to buy it in white maps.

Oh, cool. So that's how you link items.

In regards to Faster Attacks, I figured that the difference with the gem versus without the gem is negligible. I don't really see a huge difference with it on versus with it off. The thing is that currently, with all three Purity spells on, I'm sitting at 8 available mana to cast anything. Shield Charge costs 8 mana, Leap Slam costs 15 mana. In addition, since I'm not using Righteous Fire or the Arcane Surge setup, I don't have anything to amplify damage normally outside of Flame Golem, and that costs 46 mana to use. That's the context for why I was asking. Unless there's something I'm missing from my rings or jewels (which I'm actually too poor to afford at the moment), I'm probably going to be sitting on something like 8-9 available mana at all times after several more levels.

As for flasks, I'm using these right now.

I have a Taste of Hate on another character and was considering swapping it over to use.

Mistertails, you dont have any mana b/c your using an lv2 enlighten gem. You can get an lv3 for cheap (17chaos) to get you started then down the road farm or make a lv4.

Oh. Well, that's why. That's good to know, thanks!

@MisterTails change your life flask for remove bleeding one, either perpetual or surgeons or reduced charges used. Switch deodre flask for that taste of hate, toh is excelent vs physical dmg.

Are there any alternatives to Saffel's Frame? I picked up a Shaped Angelic Kite shield that beats it in everything but the spell block %. Is it that powerful of a defensive mechanic?
