PoE Juggernaut, Ruthless builds

- Config, currently need a way to get intimidate (awakened gems) - Berserk is not ticked (adds about 30% more dmg) - Single cluster uses ruthless and mastery to proc intimidate - Molten shell is not ticked, but will be active most of the time

TLDR: Frozen Legion possibly (i.e. not confirmed or hinted at by anyone at GGG AFAIK) scales similarly to Shockwave, gaining CDR and EAD please please please remember to cross-check when gem information is dropped and do not take this as gospel - it is hypothetical although at least an educated guess It's a decent 6th link for average attack speed builds It might be mainable if your weapon is exceptionally slow, but Heatshiver is likely the most straightforward way to scale it for now. 4 sample builds to get your own theorycrafting started, although those

Stun mechanics This build culumates a total o 308% reduced enemy stun threshold, which is applied (due to its formula when over 75%) as about 97.5% Sirus has 70mil HP or so, we hit him, on avarage, for over 1 mil damage, which amounts to an 77% stun chance which i'm sure can be feasebly pushed to 100% by actually taking the build seriously and increasing its damage. Consider that hits have great variance in damage due to double damage chance and ryslatha's coil This, thanks to ruthless, leads to an over 3 seconds long stun duration, which is enough for the next ruthless blow to land Shou

Act 1 Gems: Damage Skills: Holy Flame Totem (Lvl 4) - Added Fire Damage - Ruthless (Lvl 2) Ancestral Protector - Added Fire Damage - Ruthless Auras and Utility Steelskin, Precision, Vitality, Leap Slam (Dash Prior) Act 2 Gems: Supports to grab: Faster Attacks Support, Culling Strike Support, Elemental Damage with Attacks, Melee Physical Damage Auras: Herald of Ash, Herald of Purity (probably better) Act 3 Gems: THE BIG BOI, ANCESTRAL WARCHI

Have been getting a few whispers about this so sharing my current attempt to push PotCG BS as far as it can go. Currently at lvl 95 with 9+k life, 1.6+k str, and around 7-9M conservative dps. The clear is great and I've been doing some Tropical Island Zana Delirium farming quite smoothly with it. Bossing is mediocre as it's still a melee strike skill but at least the tankiness allows for some mistakes if you are a bad mechanic player like me. Boneshatter really needs some investment in stun duration to feel good so fra

Hello everyone This is a follow up post with my discoveries with boneshatter and battlemage's cry working together. Numbers are better than predicted! I'll probably play the hybrid version and ditch skill effect duration nodes. Calculations are from old numbers and should be higher now. about stun duration - it seems its the default quality for boneshatter. I'm trying to stack this now, so it was great timing! Since the AoE caps out at 400% and it gives it in chunks of 15, it was (400 / 15) = 26.67 0.1s = 2.7s stun duration for max AoE. about self damage - even on the skill effect d

Hello Everyone. introduction This week I shared a way of using the new revealed Battlemage's Cry gem here in the sub and went into great thought of coming up with a build that would use it: Boneshatter with Eternal Apple. some cool mechanics The cherry of this build is using Battlemage's cry to support yourself with annoying to cast spells (like Phase Run or any Mark skill gem). Due to gem slot restrictions I decided on dropping phase run in favor of running Poacher's mark and a cwdt 1 + storm brand setup (in hopes of generating frenzy charges on bosses). The other spell I have linked

-------------------------------------------------------- FOREWORD AND NOTES: This build has been adjusted for the great nerfening of builds from the 3.15 patch notes. The bad news is that this build lost a lot of damage, but the good news is that we get multistrike with Shield Charge and it should make this skill good enough. I am currently assuming that Shield Crush will have the same bonus damages apply as Shield Charge, in which it got changed to 4 to 6 from 3 to 4. It is also possible that Shield Crush will have the same bonus damages as Spectral Shield Throw, in which that got changed

STEP BY STEP LEVELLING: Act 1: Buy Frost Blades from Nessa after you kill Hillock. We?re going to use Frost Blades for clear and Double Strike for single targets. Buy a Paua Amulet for mana regeneration(we will need this until we get Life and Mana Leech on passive tree) and also craft movement speed boots as soon as you can. Pick up 3-colored items and sell them for chromatic orbs for first 2-3 acts. We will need them since we change skills through levelling. Keep on upgrading mana flasks especially until Act 6, we will be using them frequently. Also Magic weapon with added Physical Damage

tl;dr - BONK. --- NOTE: This requires nearly EVERY source of "increased stun duration on enemies" in the game in order to achieve a duration that leaves wiggle room for monsters with stun duration resistance. This is naked, just to prove the point that the stun duration required is achievable. New Warlord's Mark garuntees us 100% chance to double stun duration, which is the only reason this now works. The weapon equipped is a terror maul, which isn't necessary if you have both cluster jewels. There's some wiggle room in stun duration here where you can proba
