Note that this is a ruthless build guide, so if you're league starting this in non-ruthless you can take the 'endgame' setup a lot further, plus you will want to chance stuff like consecrated path into a proper movement skill of your choice.

5 link budget PoB: https://pobb.in/M4EnfoJK9gGc

Endgame PoB gear is roughly similar to what I had after 3 weeks of ruthless trade in 3.27

Pros:

- Easy crit chance cap with Ambush

- Gladiator block OP

- Attack once every 5 seconds and delete everything around you

- Static Strike got good buffs for 3.28, better reach for beams and higher beam damage.

- Azadi Crest further improves Gladiator lucky block and also boosts effects of lucky suppression + lucky damage

Cons:

- 2 button playstyle (only every 5 seconds ish but still might be a turnoff)

- Need to make sure you don't override Ambush-boosted Static Strike with another Static Strike

- Weaker vs degen pools (classic Glad issue)

- Can get double/triple tapped through block if you're super unlucky

- They nerfed Runegraft of Refraction so we lost +1 chain, you will want to swap supports when doing pinnacles and the like.

- Has a couple of buggy interactions: Ambush doesn't visibly go on CD (aligns with static energy duration so not a huge issue) and Static Strike's Static Energy buff doesn't get lengthened by runegraft of the warp when it should.
