Hi, running your build atm act 6 its really cool so far, thx for that ! I die a lot tho even with 75% elem res, but i dont have block at all so it should get better later.
Was wondering : what are your thoughts about golems ? I've seen others arma brand build using 3 to 5 golems, why did you choose to not use it ? does it give more tankyness at the cost of less damages ?

having the same problem, and was also wondering the same thing.

I would need to see your setup and you have it set to hidden.

It could be a lot of factors, how much HP do you have? Are you running the CWDT-IC-ID setup? Have you invested in max block? Are you running vitality for the life regen? If you've reached endgame and still feel squishy, you could replace Shaper of Storms w/ Bastion of Elements for another layer of defense.

Hey Sanavi! Thank you so much for this build guide and that you're updating it as the league progresses.

After checking the 23.10 updates in the PoB, I see that you have "Flame Dash" in a Ring Slot but your Endgame rings are an Amethyst and an Opal ring.

In addition, your Endgame gear is the same as the Endgame$ gear, so maybe you wanted something else to include there?

Yes, the endgames rings need to be updated so that one is an unset ring. You're still going to want to look for similar damage modifier stats on it.

The only difference that needs to be adjusted between the two Endgame sets is one with a Watcher's Eye, and one without. It will be the most expensive chase item of the build.

I dont have any of that yet, that's why im not worried about getting tankier soon ! Still wondering about your choice concerning golems tho.

Guys, what do you think about Berek's Respite?
Seems only 11% of people play with it, can't figure out why it is bad in 3.16.

Hi, thanks for the build, so far doing well.
What do you do about stuns? this is pretty much the main cause of deaths for me.

Hi, thanks for the build!
Worked great through leveling but I'm having trouble in maps right now, although my gear is shit so that's probably the deciding factor.

Not sure if I'm missing something obvious though, but how do you get block cap? I took all the block nodes you did, I'm wielding a staff, and still only sitting at 48% attack block and 64% spell block.

So, I think golems are a bit of a trap. They were strong before their ascendancy got nerfed. I think it's better to run the 6L Flame Surge, defensive CWDT-IC-ID, and aura setup currently, along with Shaper of Storms for shock and DPS.

Yeah, stuns are proving annoying. There's the keystone on the tree, but that's a lot of pathing for that. You can also craft stun avoidance on gear too. I'll need to see how the character feels once I get to max block myself.

You'll need a Rumi's to finish off block chance.

Responding to this again...I've added a new alternate PoB in the main post that features Stun Immunity via the Keystone by level 80. Hopefully, that helps! Probably going to utilize it myself.
