Hello Everyone,

I do not normally create my own builds and only tend to follow build guides. However, this last league proved that I can be in a situation where I don't enjoy any of the build guides being created (i.e. they are focused on what I consider to be a boring meta strategy - MF on Abyss - or they are just not interesting skills to me).

As such, I started playing around with Path of Building (duh!) and put together a few General's Cry builds - Gladiator, Chieftain, Juggernaut. The one that I am presenting here is the Chieftain build.

The idea behind this build is to be a league starter that doesn't need any thing special - basic jewels (no clusters), freedom with items (so people can fill in based on need), no special skills, etc. I am also aiming for something with a bit of range and that is not a glass cannon like the Berserker/Abyssus builds tend to be.

What do folks think? Is this something even semi-viable? Or is it a lost cause and I should start over with something else? I know the EHP / Max Hit is abysmally low, but since I intentionally left many items blank, I'm not sure which direction I should aim for from a defence perspective.

EDIT: Please note that the calculations show 1 Mirage Warrior. This should be increased to 6 if you want to see final damage. I have also left off almost all config options, so things like Magmatic Strikes will just be a pleasant surprise when active.
