Started a similar build after seeing Neato's noteworthy interactions video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9rsL-EAbSw

I adapted it for 3.16 and then started looking for more ideas and found this topic.

The build feels crazy tanky, but my version is a bit low on DPS, which probably can be improved...

Anyway, it's CI based Inquisitor so I just thought I'll share for anyone who would like an idea what a CI variant can look like:

Thank you for sharing! We have been doing a ton of theory crafting recently while waiting for 3.17.

We tried to make a CI character work, but the DPS was not great, just as you have seen.

The best theory craft we all came up with is a crit version for Inquisitor using a sustained Righteous Fire. It will not be an easy build due to the unique amulet needed for end game but the potential looks as good as any version of this build I have seen in years. How it plays out will be interesting to see in 3.17.....

Here is a theory craft if you are interested in seeing a Hybrid Inquisitor Crit Incin character. Incredibly tanky and can get to over 10M DPS boss burst damage without a Bottled Faith, and comfortably map with ~6M dps with no flasks or Vaal Skills active.

Andy, what do you think about this one? It's your same POB, but with a level 84 tree added as well. I removed some of the nodes I could that don't mess up the strength/intel balance needed for the amulet. At level 84 with this tree you can safely start buying gear with correct strength and intel without worrying about further leveling messing up the stat balance.

Hi there! Been following this thread recently, gonna either play it next league or respec my Hierophant into it - looking for something tanky to play on my Templar. My question is, is there a possibility of playing this as Inqui or Guardian without Leadership's Price or a variant of the tree that would allow that? I know it's probably easier to gear for than I think but I really want to avoid dealing with it just to make it function.

I haven't done any theory crafting yet, but have any of you thought about the Interrogation small cluster jewel? Downside would be losing out on the +max res on the amulet and whatever points we would need to lose rearranging the tree to include it. Positives would be getting back the amulet slot and not needing to worry about matching strength and intel.

But then we wouldn't be able to shock (lose a lot of dps) or ignite (for the damage bonus of Combustion) anymore either.
