Hi everybody!
So, I have been trying to figure out how to make the Chieftain good. And most of the power of the Chieftain is in how easy it is for him to get defenses. I wanted to see how tanky you could get with a Chieftain, and it turns out that the answer is "absurdly".
Here's a pob: https://pobb.in/34dqVVWIZkty
I based this build on an existing DD CI Elementalist. But I realized that if you combine Valako, Storm's Embrace and Melding of the Flesh, you can get above +30% max ele resistance.
Basically - Valako doesn't stop you from getting non-fire max resists. And they add together. 15% max fire res and 15% max cold or lightning res combines to make 30% max ele res.
I also managed to get 100% physical to elemental conversion on here, along with an Aegis Aurora.
This isn't a fully fleshed-out build - I had trouble figuring out a good low-investment way for it to deal damage. This isn't Crucible league, so I can't just slap explodey totems on there and call it a day.
So, does anyone have any ideas of how I can get damage on there?
