[3.1] GLADIATOR 1H+Shield Max Block&Spell Block Tank + a BoR version
Hey Serge, great build! By far the strongest character I have ever had. The only downside is a very repetitive game play that kinda gets boring fast. I am proud to say that I have just successfully completed an Atziri run for the first time with this Build. Was down to my last portal. Decided to run again, and this time only died once in Atziri's quad phase. Once I get a little more practice I should be able to do it deathless consistently. I am currently sitting at 5,200 health, 10,000 armor, 550 ES (for aegis) and 16k DPS with earthquake at level 85 in perandus.
Cheers man! |

I'm not sure if its been discussed or not, but is there any reason this weapon couldn't work for this build?
There is a damage node that buffs claw+dagger+sword damage, and the bonus from all 3 stacks for this weapon. Possibility of saving a few nodes? Or getting more damage nodes? FYI, most of the damage on that weapon is flat physical, which gets multiplied much better by % damage nodes than weapons that get most of their damage from % based physical increases. Which makes it a lot stronger than a comparable weapon with higher % based physical and lower flat physical bonus. Última edição por MrSmiley21#1051 em 9 de abr de 2016 13:40:32

Im lvl 43 with this build and am having trouble with the intelligence requirement for increased AoE, should i swap it out for the other gem you suggested? as of now I am already wearing rings and ammys plus a helm with all attributes/int and barely meet the req for inc AoE gem. Also I assume you keep tempest shield and chaos golem at lvl 1? Is this correct?

" I went in depth with my explanation of varunastra on page 63 (See spoilers below), you can look at it if you want. I think I did a fairly good job of assessing the weapon and using the optimal tree set up (It might be further optimized with expensive jewels and a bit of different routing, but I'm still wondering over that. Likely it loses a small amount of damage for slightly more tankiness.) Comrade, since there are a lot of questions over varunastra, perhaps it would be a good idea to link my post (Feel free to do whatever you want with it, you don't have to credit me; that takes up unnecessary space.) or to offer your own opinion regarding the weapon and build path on one of your posts on the first page. Additionally, you could expand on my ideas too. Original speculation (1st spoiler) and expansion on thoughts after the fact (2nd spoiler) below: "

Note: Gratuitous Violence and Violent Retaliation are, in my opinion, up to preference. One offers more damage and clear (3 passive points needed), the other offers more reliable tankiness with slightly less damage. Also, I've started using Phys to lightning on easier maps instead of conc in my 6L (Switch to conc on boss if I feel like it'll help enough bother with) You 100% cannot run phys to lightning on ele reflect maps (It's suicide, our mitigation is physical), always swap back to conc on them. Here is how I think the tree might look with expensive jewels (Very min-maxy and not entirely sure it even ends in a significant upgrade):

" Tempest Shield shouldn't be a problem for you, it's a str/int gem. Chaos golem is kept on the level on which you can use it, but definitely not level 1. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995

Hi I'm playing since Nemesis and this is for sure the strongest build I've ever played. I'm playing only in hardcore leagues.
I'm currently playing this build (rerolling cause I ripped due to misplay at lvl 91) and I'm playing a 4l vengeance/reckoning/tempest shield/blind. Are those gems too bad to be discussed? |

Hello, I've been following this guide step by step but there are a few things that are troubling me.
1) Since I'm currently leveling up and I dont have 5/6L equipment, what would you recommend on a 4L equipment as far as skill gems are concerned? Is Ice Crash the always go to or should I use another skill for leveling? What gem setup would you recommend? I have 4 pieces with 4L. 2) Is there any unique required for leveling? Or should I just use whatever rare I encounter? Thank you very much, so far this build is perfect for me! Última edição por StKillerOne#3710 em 14 de abr de 2016 06:59:15
