[3.2] Juggernaut - Tectonic Slam - 1.1 mil DPS - Crit - Stormwall/Hegemony's Era **UPDATED** 3/4/18

https://pastebin.com/YSpgtCTu

Made two non-staff based builds. Threw them together real quick so I probably missed something, but they're both at 1.3k+ actual shaper dps, with much more expensive gear, of course.

The Mace version is much cheaper than the axe one though. I skipped the Ancestral Warchief for a Kaoms Heart.

There's a lot more you can do with the items, the rings, flasks etc can probably be improved by a lot.

This build should be able to push 2 mil boss dps.

We could replace the Enhance Gem for something like Vaal Lightning trap for bosses and get even more dps!

Hey,

Big thanks for the guide, have been leveling without any problem so far. So was just wandering is there any particular reason u are opting for staff instead of sword or axe?

The critical from the staff just works better than anything else, much higher DPS.

Sorry I am a bit confused, I am not sure whats the highest pDPS roll for Stormwall I guess its around 440? are you saying that that 35% crit chance will give me more dps overall? cause if I were to aim for let's say Disfavour which can have more than 600 pDPS not to mantion that 15% atk speed I would assume it would have more dps?

I am sorry if i'm mistaken i have not checked this numbers in pob or anything this is just coming from my thoughts, and I know that price difference between these weapons is huge, I am just wandering if I were to get Disfavour at some point should I just respec into axe?

The Pastebin PoB build has a dex req of 155 but you only have 123 dex so the build doesn't even function... Nice try though...

I do realize that there is not enough Dex as per the PoB to do this. I figured the answer to this was obvious. Find more Dex on jewelry or craft it on jewelry until you get what you need. If you are having a really hard time getting the Dex to start with then simply stop leveling Blood Rage until you get more Dex.

I do not suggest anyone drop AW for a Kaom's unless they are able to get the funds to buy the most expensive stuff. I wanted to make a guide that was not another one of those that the majority of the player base can not do due to funds limitations.

Personally I have never been really good at making high currency in the game.

I will take a look at your links there later and see if there is a way to work some of what you have into the guide. I plan to do another update to it later this week or start of next week at the latest, I just want some time this week to play and enjoy myself.

The main issue with stormwall is its soooooo slow
I guess I'm just used to fast attacking melee lol

Yes, I completely agree. No argument from me on this point.

But if it works better than I will just use it and after a while it will not feel so bad :P

It was the same with me last league with a build guide I followed. It had litterally 0% move speed and the ONLY move speed it had was with Leap Slam. I really like to just walk fast and use the movement skill as needed so it was a huge wake-up call for me. After a week or so I was a pro at using leap slam to move, although the slamming noise from it got to me sometimes so I just turned the volume off and listened to music lol

*EDIT* Especially when I had just before that played a build where I had 75% move speed lol

A 35+ % fire damage kaoms is half the price of a 6-link belly though.

I agree, but for bosses the AW adds HUGE DPS, both adding to your TS DPS and adding it's own DPS. So having it out is great for those that can not get the other high end stuff that adds the other huge DPS. Again, I will have to test some stuff out and work on the guide some more.

Thanks for the guide!
Good job for the first build: links, leveling, items.
The only change for me is to take more life nodes at the beginning.

With your builds / setup the totem did 250k dps, swapped some gems around on my builds and got it to 400k. at these numbers it's useful, but again, a more expensive/less tanky option than kaoms. Both are viable tho. Depends on if you like to press an extra button or not I guess.

Hey,

glancing at the guide I am probably being blind but cannot see how you reach 100% ele dmg?
I know about the staff with conversion, but assuming I will wear Hegemony, do I take Avatar then?

And if I do, does fire pen gem come into play?
Because ruthlesnes, from my limited experience, seems like a waste.

Or, alternatively, do I pick phys to lightning? That would make even more sense since we can actually shock with crits using that item.

And if I do, what is the gem setup and priority?
My guess is - tectonic, faster/multi, phys2light, weapon ele, melee phys, conc effect

I am playing "guild-found" sort of, so my item choice will be limited.
