Path of Chigurh's Notes

I put together this Marauder Juggernaut build in 3.14 to kill deep delve bosses, but by popular demand, I converted the Heavy Strike build into a Cycloner. While this cycloner is tanker due to increased mobility and infused channeling, it does significantly less dps due to the need to invest in AOE nodes to feel good.

This build gets its insane tankiness in a large part because of Veteran's Awareness small cluster jewel, which I just found out about looking through POE Wiki for ideas. I'm not sure how this jewel isn't more popular. It works by making you pretty much unkillable to hits during the duration of regular Molten Shell. Since Molten Shell is up 66% of the time, it is very hard to die in combination with the 5 defensive auras that I run. In this 60% Delirious map, I weave in-and-out of combat when Molten Shell is on cooldown.

Short Build Summary: *100,000+ armour without flasks or cooldowns *80%/81% max resist without flasks or cooldowns *90% max resist with Molten Shell *350,000+ effective HP pool with flasks and cooldowns *Immune to critical hits, shocks, and corrupting blood.

*1.5 million Sirus DPS without flasks or cooldowns *2.1 million Sirus DPS with flasks and cooldowns

Disclaimer: This test was on Standard league where I have a legacy Starforge and cluster jewels equipped. This does not effect the tankiness of the build. This character can be build in Ultimatum league, but I would suggest crafting/buying a 900+ dps weapon for 30-40 ex and 3 mod clusters to achieve similar dps. In total this build should be around 120-150ex to make with weapon, pride amulet, and pride watcher's eye being 50-60% of the cost.
