Hey I am run a 2H AW build looking to swap over to this one. The biggest issue for me is getting a 6L Belly of the Beast. How big of an issue is that for this build? Can I get around it by running a 5L for now, or perhaps Bringer of Rain helmet? Any information is appreciated, thanks!


5L is also ok, and u can use bringer of rain, if u prefer it

EDIT: Replaced original message since I went ahead and switched to this build, I like it much more over 2H.

Have one question: how necessary is arctic armor / vaal grace? They look like they are needed for tankiness, but I am trying to figure out how in the world I can switch a shield charge / fortify / faster attacks into this. I've tried for hours and can come up with nothing between socket colors and needed gems. Granted, I don't want to lose any (or much) survivability or DPS.

Why does no one talk about the champion for this build? You still get great offense with a ton of defense.

I have a slayer EQ and not sure if I should just invest my 25ex into him or do this build so I can see all content in the game.


If I do a version of this I would need to play as a champion maybe or just reroll another maruader?

The problem with champion is that the Conqueror and Worthy Foe nodes aren't all that useful due to the fact that your only source of taunt is enduring cry which loses its 100% cooldown recovery speed since you're not berserker (so taunt every 4 sec). Taunt on hit doesn't work since your totems are the ones hitting and they aren't affected by "on hit" effects. The only way to make taunt on hit work is if you attack with another skill like shield charge but then you deal no damage (if you remove ancestral bond node then that's a whole other build). Same goes for First to Strike, Last to Fall's "Your hits permanently intimidate enemies that are on full life". Again, you're not the one hitting in this build, the totems are.

My fully buffed, concentrated dps atm. Same conditions as op's tukohama max dps screenshot. I'd be over 600k dps with a good helm enchant.
Spoiler

7k life, 42%block, 5 max endurance charges, and 12.5k armor. How do I deal with the ~40% increased phys dmg taken with Abyssus?

By not using it. No legacy items or relevant enchants either. Replacing Abyssus with a different helm makes plenty of sense to me.

Gear and tree.


Is this your own rendition of this build? I've seen this slight difference in two of my favorite streamers builds and I can't find a more in-depth guide for it. I've got a couple questions if you don't mind, so I added you in game if at all possible. I just spent quite a bit of money switching to Facebreaker from 2H so it will take me awhile to recoup to be able to try out this one, but I plan to eventually as I like the more resist and damage nodes.

My primary reason to try this is because it runs Shield Charge. The only thing I can imagine giving up for that is Vaal Grace / Arctic Armor / Enlighten, but the sockets and colors aren't working out right quite yet and I don't know if that is possible due to the survivability they offer.

Any info is appreciated!

Hi i following Tukohamas guide with 8 enduce charge

since we have 11 points left
can we go shamanlstic and ironwood how much dmg will that give?
Sorry I've got a lot of questions as I play a lot and trying to master this build....

1. What res should we be shooting for overall? I just have basic build and not multi-ex gear so far, but I can't seem to pass much above 75% all with -60% Chaos...

2. Is there anyway to integrate shield charge? I'm assuming no because we use Arctic Armor for high survivability and double aura for damage.
1. Is this build deals way more damage than flameblast totem?

2. I'm playing SSF, is this viable than FB totem?

3. Which has more damage, the 2H or this version?

4. Currently I'm level 40 and gearing towards the 2H AW one. I don't have any end game items at the moment and I will use this character to get those. Is your version more easy early on even without equips or the 2H?

I really like the AW build. Hoping you could help me decide on which path to take. I can only handle 1 good farming character.
