Hey Folks! Back in the Ancestor league, I played around with Shield Crush on the newly renovated Chieftain class... and that video has been getting a lot of traction in part I believe because folks are looking for information regarding the Transfigured gem Shield Crush of the Chieftain which came in with 3.23.

So on a whim, I decided to roll a brand new Marauder and revisit Shield Crush this time as a Juggernaut using the fire-based transfigured version of the gem. The build feels comfy but the clear feels bad... full stop. It is pretty great down in Delve but not necessarily better than my Righteous Fire Chieftain. I went down the armor scaling path but really... the ability is a bit awkward to scale.

I would say I have around 20 Divines worth of items in the build, which places it in the "not really worth it unless you have a kink about dealing damage with shields" category... which admittedly I do given I loved Gladiator Stance in World of Warcraft.

Anyways! It was worth playing around with. You can check out my POB here but I would not necessarily call it optimized as I just sort of YOLO'd my way through it.
