PoE 3.15 - Incinerate Elementalist Tank - A9 Showcase - (PoB, Gearing, Info in desc)

PoB: https://pastebin.com/728Wwvif Build Summary: The main gimmick with this build is armour stacking and aegis aurora, which gives us a massive amount of ES on block. As such, we scale hybrid life/es and we take a lot of defensive nodes on the tree. The build itself is extremely tanky and can stand still against any content that "hits" a lot. We are max block and that is primarily how we sustain our tankiness. The downside here is the dps, which requires us to stand still, and furthermore the ramp up is kinda awful when you consider having to dodge AoE from some bosses. As such, this build is more of an experiment than something I would recommend. The plus side is that it is fairly cheap if you take away some of the unecessary big items like bottled faith.

Gearing: Weapon Main Hand: Cerberus Limb - We use this for the high spell damage and more importantly, the scaling between ES and armour, as well as spell leech.

Shield: Aegis Aurora - This is the unique that turns this build on, as we get a ton of block as well as that sweet ES on block scaled by our armour.

Helmet: Crown of the Inward eye (incinerate stages ench) - The enchant here is nice for damage, especially when we can stand still. Otherwise, the item offers more dps and defensives, pretty stock standard.

Body Armour: Skin of the Loyal (4B2R) - We want +1 to all gems if possible, but if not then +2 mod to incinerate works. Global defensives are huge from this item.

Gloves: Rare Gloves - General resistances and life + armour, and we want some chaos res.

Boots: The Stampede - Allows us to annoint a second notable, and since we stand still a lot, our movement will likely come from flame dash.

Amulet: Rare Amulet - Flexible, as you can just take defensives, or scale gem levels or take increased damage for incinerate.

Rings: Rare rings w/ reduced curse effect - We take curse reduction so we don't get gutted by other curses; otherwise chaos res and other defensives, so nothing crazy.

Belt: Coward's Legacy - We take 0 effect from vulnerability due to our watcher's eye, so this is free 30% more damage with pain attunement.

Flasks: Forbidden taste / Cinderswallow urn / Bottled faith or sulphur flask / Wise oak / Basalt flask

Unique Jewels: Watcher's eye (flat armour + no vulnerability determination) / Blue Nightmare / Natural affinity / Unnatural Instinct

Cluster Jewels: 1 rare large / 1 rare small / 1 rare medium / 1 small unique - If you can find a good megalomaniac then that works too

Jewels: Fill res/life/es/spell dmg as needed

Playstyle: Setup/Bossing - Infernal Cry - Vaal RF - Incinerate - most bosses you can just tank standing still and let stages build (cast speed is your friend)

Clear - Using Infernal cry with as many mobs as possible on your screen is the best way to clear - you get a big screen pop and everything is basically dead
