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

I'd have to agree with the lack of taking advantage of the Armour values for juggernaut in this build as of current. Using an abyssus currently along with a decently armoured astral plate i find that the next best bet would definitely be the carapace chest piece as the defense and sustain for dangerous fights are still lacking imo.

I am compensating so far by using determination and arctic Armour instead of Hatred and HOA, since we seriously already have enough damage through crits when geared well.

What does everyone else think so far defense wise?
I prefer Starkonjas over Abyssus, gives you less damage, sure, but a lot more survivability!
I think it's possible to use essence worm for the hatred and use herald of ash and aspect of the crab on mana with about 70% reserved. I think the crab armor is BiS and essential with abyssus.
I had not seen the crab armour yet, thank you for posting about it. I will check it out.

I am still working on the build quite a bit and we will eventually be taking Avatar of Fire and Fire Penetration, I think this is the ONLY way to do this build as it cuts through so much of the resistant to elemental and resistant to fire.

I am still testing a bunch of stuff but I will be updating this guide in a few days most likely with some great stuff to make the build even better.
Definitely going to try crab chest once it comes down a bit. Still very poor need to run more maps.
I think Kingsguard is the best chest to use for this build if using multistrike combined with enchant from lab that gives u 40% chance to not consume endurance charges with tectonic. It works almost like vaal pact the life heal from Kingsguard is so good.
Be water, my friend.
To give y'all an idea of what I am working on, I will post a PoB pastebin here so y'all can look at it.

Yes, I have lost some DPS with what I have going on here. It is still better to do less DPS overall and be able to kill elemental resistant mobs and bosses. I am still killing mobs in the T4 maps (that's as high as I have gone so far) in one shot for the most part, rare mobs and bosses of course takes a bit more. I am slo surviving quite well. I have not done uber lab yet, I am still working on the trials.

All of the gear I have has cost me less than 30 chaos and I have not even come close to death in a LONG time (although traps in merc lab last night were not super easy).

**EDIT** I am swapping between increased AoE and Concentrated Effect in the 5th blue slot on my staff. I put Tectonic Slam into the staff and the totem in my body armour for now since the staff has 5L and I dont have the currency to try to do anything with sockets on my body armour.

I also updated my Map Completion Checklist this morning to be more in line with Bestiary league challenges. There is still more I can do to it but it is not really necessary. You do not have to use it for a checklist to check off completed challenges and maps if you don't want. It will also help you to see what boss is in what map, what map for which pantheon, what maps upgrades to what map, etc. It has a lot of helpful information.

I created it in the latest Excel available and have a DropBox link here for it, it will also work in Open Office although it is not as nice looking. It will not work in Google Sheets because of the code to make drop boxes and the like, I can not figure out how to make those work in Sheets, or if it is even possible.

I was farming uber today, level 83/84 with 4.2-4.3k hp. Everything in there tickled and izaro melted. My gear cost me like 25 ish chaos so far. Still one shotting packs with Inc AoE in yellow maps.

Gonna move on to reds and maybe some guardians tomorrow after i've farmed some more currency to buy some of the big upgrades.

I can justify wearing the crab armor if wearing abyssus but it feels like overkill otherwise. An Astral Plate / Belly is more than enough if going the Starkonja route, and makes it easier to cap resistances and go more offensive on the jewels / rings / ammys.

This makes me very happy to hear. I always figured that uber lab would be easy to farm and having confirmation on that is awesome. I am not personally the best at dealing with traps, I am old and slow compared to the majority of you all lol.

Of course for anyone that is going to farm uber lab, or do any lab after getting it, make sure to grab Soul of Ryslatha pantheon. I got cornered in the middle of a bunch of traps my first try on merc lab last night without this pantheon and my health flasks were empty. It did not end well for me :P
