Highly Defensive 6 Aura Templar (Groundslam/1h/shield)

Hi, this is a 6 aura build that I've recently reworked into my very first character playing this game, had to switch a lot of passives around to make this work, but here it is!

The main focus of this build is to not only attempt to reduce the amount of damage taken as much as humanly possible, but be able to regenerate that health back as quickly as we can. This is my attempt at doing so.

Passive Tree Link:


**Picture of the Defensive stats page:**



What stats to focus on most with this build :

HP***
HP REGEN***
High Armor*
Elemental Resist
(Chaos if preferred, but not required.)

Auras running when in defensive mode:

Anger
Wrath
Vitality
Determination
Grace
Purity

Optional (depending on how challenging the map is):

Hatred
Haste


Keep in mind, that armor stat is without Molten Shell on, with it on you are boosted another 1224x177%(from passives), in my case giving me another 4200, therefore bringing the damage reduction up another 5% at level 85.(then ofcourse the additional 15% from endurance charges bringing the % up to 73% estimated phys dmg reduction.

My current shield has no HP at all on it so once I find a decent high armor/HP/ele res shield it should bring my total hp to around 5350 and my regen well over 400.

It is somewhat gear intensive in the fact that you need both high armor stats and high HP stats while also finding decent resists behind those stats. I think the biggest weakness would be the nonexistent chaos resistance in my build, but so far I've been able to solo many 70+ chaos maps without too much problem.

I like the build and have a build that looks the same, mine is however not so much on the auras sins i use a shield i don't feel the need for some of the auras. some of my talents are in the shield trees which proves to be so usefull 30% all ress and tons of % on def with block.

Over all thanks to your build i maneg to switch around on mine and max the effect ^^

Templar Ground slam shield auras

here is my build.

Hey thanks for viewing my build! I also had originally more passives in that shield circle for +30% res, but because I've gotten 80 all res from my gear I decided to switch around some passives to try and gain more dps from ele dmg and a few more hp nodes. Your build is very similar though :)
