Bax Life RF Juggernaut, The Money Maker

Hello Guys, Bax_CD here. This build is a detailed version of the Life RF Juggernaul I've been using to make money duuds. The guide is very complete, but if you have any questions feel free to join me in my stream https://www.twitch.tv/bax_cd and I will try to clear up anytime!

https://www.twitch.tv/bax_cd.


PROs

-High damage

-super tanky

-high regen

-9k Life

-can do all content

-Easy money maker

CONs

-It is rippy to do reduced max resistances, no regen and less recovery map mods.

Important Info: If you get an Elder Helmet wit hthe Conc Effect + Burning Damage mods, make sure to use Arcane Surge+Swift Affliction. The Swift Affliction Gem is only going to work if you have Arcane Surge Linked to it.
____________________________________________________________________________

The Watcher's Eye you want to get is the one with Vitality Recovery, Also Vitality Regen helps some.. But it is not required to the build

% Life Recovery while affected by Vitality is the most important line.

PASSIVE TREE



This is the Links to my Current Build at level 93, doing UberLab Carrys for lots of people on Hardcore Incursion.

It can always get better by MinMaxin gear, for example I could easily get an Elder Belt for 20% Life recovery, and %Life Recovery while Vitality Watcher's Eye jewel. But I am lazy and this way is already more than enough to what I am using the build for.

PANTHEON

For Lab Runs I usually use these Pantheons:
Major: Soul of Solaris
Minor: Soul of Ralakesh

It can be replaced for others of your preferences depending on the Fight/Situation you are. But for lab runs I believe those to be the best.



ASCENDANCY



Normal lab: Unbreakable

Cruel lab: Unflinching

Merciless lab: Unrelenting

Uber lab: I use Unyielding to do my UberLab runs and Maps, but it is nice to use Unstopable if you plan on doing Uber Elder. You can respec one for another anytime.



GEAR



Helmet:
-Elder Royal Burgonet Crafted with Essence of Horror

But if you can't afford one, just a Regular rare with high life and resistances is fine!

Amulet:
-Rare Marble Amulet
With high Life and Resistances
You can craft with Essence of Anger if you are Richy
-A Shaper's Seed Agate Amulet with Corruption ''Grants level 23 Purity of Fire'' can be really helpful in the progression from level 44 until the high levels

Rings:
-2x Kaom's Way Ring

Body Armour:
-Kaom's Heart Glorious Plate

Shield:

For Lab Carrys I use
-Rise of the Phoenix

For Elder, Shaper and Uber Elder Saffel seems to be the best option because the extra Cold Res
-Saffell's Frame Branded Kite Shield
https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Saffell%27s_Frame

Weapon:
For weapon you can choose based on what you are doing and what you can afford.

Personally I use Brightbeak to do Uberlab Carrys, because I can jump fast through lab.

-Brightbeak War Hammer
https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Brightbeak

If you plan on doing end-game Maps, Shaper, Elder, etc you should get a Shaped Rare scepter.

-Rare Shaped Scepter with Huge %elemental damage and multimod Bloodmagic for permanent Cast of Scorching Ray

If you dont have money for that Rare Shaped multi-moded Scepter you can always use a Doryani's Catalyst Vaal Scepter
-Doryani's Catalyst Vaal Scepter
https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Doryani%27s_Catalyst

-Boots

Rare Boots with mov speed, High Life, resistances

-Gloves

Rare Gloves with High life and resistances

-Belt

Elder Rare Belt with %Life Recovery, High life and Resistances

If you can't afford that, you can just go with a Rare one with High life and resistances.



Gems


For act 1 start:
-Molten Strike
-Ancestral Protector

When enter in Merveil Cave (act1)
-Sunder (level 12)

You can Link Sunder and Ancestral Protector with this gems to get better damage:

Link 1:
-Sunder (Level 12) (act1)
-Added fire (level 8) (act1)
-Faster Attacks (level18) (act2)
-Melee Physical Dmg (level18) (act2)

Link 2:
-Ancestral Protector(lvl4) (act1)
-Added Fire (act1)
-Faster Attacks (act2)
-Melee Physical Dmg (act2)

Some of the Gems required for the RF phase you can't get as a Marauder in any act ventor. So I sugest you to do the Library Quest in the end of act 3, that way you can buy all gems from Siosa. If you have friends playing diferent classes like Templar, or Which, they can help you getting the gems you can't get, or just use poe.trade.

For the RF setup you find the gems links on Pastebin of each phase of build, but here is the list of the gems and links

Link 1:
-Righteous Fire (act2)
-Elemental Focus (act2)
-Burning Damage (act3 Library)
-Increased Aoe / Swap Conc Effect for bosses (act2)

Link 2:
-Orb of Storms (act1)
-Curse on Hit (act4)
-Flammability (act3)
-Increased Critical Strikes Support (act1)

Link 3:
-Shield Charge (act1)
-Fortify (act3 Library)
-Faster Attacks (act2)

Link 4:
-Scorching Ray (act1)
-Elemental Focus (act2)
-Burning Damage (act3 Library)

Another Gems you need that don't need to be linked:
-Decoy Totem (act1)
-Stone Golem (act4)
-Purity of Fire (act3)
-Vitality (act3)



IMPORTANT INFO


Guys, After you finish content act1 to 10,
If you can't afford the Kaom's heart Glorious Plate, Kaom's Rings, etc..
Just keep doing Tier 4 Volcanos to farm for Kaom's Heart Cards (The King's Heart or The Pride Before the Fall).
Don't try to go Higher tiers without those equipments.
(Obs.: To Permanent Farm Volcanos tier4, make sure to not complete any tier 4 and tier 5 maps, except Volcano. That way you will get a lot of volcanos to drop.)

Also, Make sure to never have any flat fire damage or flat fire damage to spells in your gear. It makes your Elemental Equilibrium increases the monster's Fire Resistances instead of Decreasing. It is Terribro

Make sure to never do No Regen, or -Maximum Resistances or Less Recovery Map Rolls. And make sure you are Elemental Weakness Caped if you pretend to run Elemental Weakness mod on the maps.
(To cap Elemental weakness for lower than monster level 79 you need a total of 104% res. To cap for maps with monster level 79+ it is 109%)

-Careful with the Volcano Boss. It has Elemental Equilibrium. So if you get hit by the Ice totems you might Degen cause your fire resistance will get -50%. Either you put +50% fire res above the cap. Or you don't get hit. (Use Decoy totem)

Remember guys, Decoy totem is your best friend in all situations. Remember to use it wisely and with strategy, you can do anything.
