Build Overview:

This is my take on the Cast When Stunned archetype, and is quite different from the traditional Chieftain ignite approach. This build utilizes a lot of underrated uniques which can't really shine outside of highly specific builds, with the star of the show being The Black Cane. We also use Blade Blast as our main damage skill, which is usually clunky to build around but works incredibly well for our build due to a few clever interactions. The end result is a chill, comfy build that is very tanky for most content with excellent map clear and acceptable single target damage.

The core concept of this build is to leverage the extremely high amount of flat added physical damage from the phantasmal might buff from The Black Cane, amplified by the new Dark Monarch helm, in a Cast When Stunned Pathfinder shell. CwS is an effective archetype for this as we can trigger multiple spells simultaneously, letting us summon phantasms with a secondary skill without having to sacrifice a support gem on our main 6L. Blade Blast is used as our primary damage skill, as we can automate blade generation by triggering Bladefall and Ethereal Knives of Lingering Blades. This league has also introduced a new setup to enable CwS, which makes this build even stronger. This is an update to my 3.25 build, but has been significantly buffed and is built quite differently now.
