[3.1] JUGGERNAUT/BERSERKER 1H+Shield Max Block&Spell Block Tank, Atziri Killer+a BoR version

30k armour isn't that hard to achieve, especially if you're Juggernaut. 100k dps is pretty nice, though :)

Just got this dropped. Looks like a very interesting Unique to up my dps. Thoughts?
I would not cap my resist anymore if I wear them, but now that I think about it I have full endurance charges anyway and they made sure my resistance is capped...

Then you can check my duelist equivalent of this build: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868996

PtL should be better, IMO, but depends on the skill. Ice crash or similar + PtL could make you very vulnerable to ele ref.

I already checked that :). However for now I have decided to stick with the current char as I've just hit 95. Gave up 1 endurance charge and took an extra jwl slot. I will regain it once i get the +1 belt.

I've also did some changes in gem setups.
Changed WeD with Dmg on full life.
Now I'm using Hatred + HoA
Removed Golem gem. Instead I have Warlords and Enfeeble on manual cast
I'm almost at 50K dps. - 64K with Lion's Roar.

They're great gloves, definitely very good for the build if you can get the resists elsewhere.

Hi guys,

can i use a Cameria`s_Maul in combination with ice crash?



damage is ok 115-211, 6.05 crit and a extra 40% dam with cold damage.

sounds good to me but please feel free to burn poor ould Cameria`s to the ground

In terms of survivability, which class would you recommend for this build? Marauder or duelist? I've played both and I'm unsure what to roll on the next league. One big leg-up the marauder ascendancy tree has over the duelist is the ability to generate max charges when you generate any at all. But the 100% spell block the duelist ascendancy tree frees up your amulet / boot inv spots allowing you to equip +life items.

Also, why don't you recommend using doedre or +1 curse anvil amulet to allow you to run enfeeble / warlord's mark curses? Seems like the 20%+ reduction in damage is too good to give up, although you do sacrifice a bit of damage not being able to run hatred.

Just calculate the dps of Cameria. You'll realize it's complete trash and you can buy a better rare mace for 5 Chaos.

From a simple mechanical viewpoint, Gladiator is slightly ahead of Juggernaut because of the spell block. The difference is the flavour and what you prefer to play.

I don't recommend it because you lose auras. If you want to do it, do it :) there's nothing wrong with it mechanically.

Just want to report that I cleared Uber Lab with this build with ease. And with the final points in ascendency I end up with 34k armour with stun immunity. The Veruso gloves are now on my character, but he lost 20+ chaos resistance as a result. Hope it is worth it. The shock immunity was the real reason I wanted to use it.

All in all, I am happy with this build's survivability. That and the ability to ignore all the annoying slow effects. The important thing is to have a 2K chest armour, but after that it is a breeze. Guess the issue now is the curse immunity maps, as I still get mana problems.

New update: My Juggernaut had just cleared regular Atziri twice with ease.

How easy?

While, with Daresso's Batteringram gloves, I was able to facetank the lightning shocks of the Vessals of the Vaal, and I didn't use flasks at all.

Then with the Trio, I merely had to kill the titty bitch, make sure I don't stand on chaos damage, and then facetank the fire guy followed by the bleed guy. I just had to periodically drink from my staunching healing flask. And the aoe from my EQ refills the flasks.

With Atziri, I am surprised to find that I can facetank the split phase, as long as I target the spear version and occasionally flask heal.

And the invincible phase is not a problem with EQ.

All in all, this was a great build and I am very happy that I finally have something that can farm regular Atziri. Keep in mind that I play entirely self found, and you would realise how important it is that I finally have access to Atziri drops that many common builds need.

I started this build to safely kill Atziri. And I am happy to report it does that very well.
