My take on current Facebreaker champion.

Overview: This was my league starter. Facebreaker builds (and physical builds) got a nice bump this patch. The Runegraft of the Bound gives 20% glove effect, which I am assuming loosely correlates to 20% more Facebreaker effect which is a nice bump. On top of that, easy access to lucky hits through perquils toe (from Merc) means Ryslatha + volatility is very strong. I combined that with last league's massive buffs to block, and have made a slow moving vortex of doom. Defensive layers include Fortify, aegis, leech, armour, some endo charges on kill, infusion and 65%+ block. Offence is around 10-30M DPS depending on the variance of adrenaline and charges and etc... The defenses are enough such that it is more than enough offence imo. I would bump the DPS for ubers probably though, and may continue build to do so.

This was not a crazy difficult set of mods (i should've looked) but the only mods I find really dangerous are 1) crit 2) volatile cores and 3) unique bosses are possessed. Phys reflect is a straight up no, and everything else is doable. No leech requires a mana flask. Combo ele weakness and reduced aura effect means i have to adjust tree.

Cost:

T16s can easily be done on 1D. This was my build around the point I finished all the new Zana questline: https://pobb.in/1um4HtvaVJi6

T17s can be done on ~10D

T17s can be juiced a bit and run consistently on ~20D.

My current cost is around 20-25D, but some of this was crafted cheap and some was acquired much earlier in league so i don't know current cost.

Pros: Comfy, tanky, not a lot of buttons, good performance for price

Cons: Stampede lacks dynamism of PoE and clear speed is limited because of stampede movement speed.

PoBs: Two PoBs are provided, the build ramps up in strength substantially over the course of a fight but there is a lot of variance due to Adrenaline, charge generation etc... I haven't messed with true bossing yet, so the build is more mapping focused.

I was thinking about going through reasoning for all decisions, but its complicated so I think I will just wait on questions rather than write out an essay.
