Overview
I just want to be tanky as hell next league, so I made a big ol Dominating Blow Guardian. Never played it though so is there anything I'm missing? is a Path of Exile Guardian build by Burwicke, made for the Scourge league (3.16). It is centered on Dominating Blow and plays as a strength, attack, minion, duration archetype. In Path of Building it reaches 5.41M DPS with 1 life, 8.67K energy shield. Key uniques include The Scourge, Shaper's Touch, Graven's Secret, Memory Vault, The Writhing Jar.
Burwicke's Notes
Couple of thoughts right off the bat:
-
No Herald of Purity, just because for it to be worth I feel like would take up too much mana that could be used being tankier or boosting the Sentinels
-
96 is getting up there for sure... I'd probably start by dropping Enduring Bond since it's a pretty small damage boost. Would losing that much duration hurt? Seems to drop about a third of its duration (30s -> 20s)
-
Very little minion defense on the tree. I see some trees investing quite a bit in to defense. Is that, like, crucial?
-
Aegis Aurora probably getting the nerf hammer next league, please GGG be gentle Prayge
Any thought? There's probablyyyyy similar builds on the forums that do things cleaner but WHATEVER I've been making my own builds for a while now and it's been fine.
