Do not take this the wrong way. But what did your juggernaut (at settlers) actually achieve?

Your builds will not work. Period.

So many people are telling others "check this out, try that", "Hundreds of gems available", "There will be thousand of possible builds"...

No. Lies upon lies. Click baits.

The offense in this game relies on strong synergy from equipment and tree nodes. The damage is calculated in terms of millions. It is the result from chain of multiplication, cheesy conversions and focusing all investment on one thing.

The defense is organized on different layers, demanding heavy investment, often in multiple of them, to ensure character survival.

The game was, is, and always will be, balanced against top builds.

You will never be able to pick nodes on the go, and come up with something that works. Even if you are particularly good at math, prototyping requires tools, that allow you to check if the end-game numbers are actually alright.

So if you want to see something more than the campaign (And you should, because otherwise its 30 buck for 3 acts...), "experimenting" is absolutely not recommended.

Getting to level 83 in a hardcore league is probably better than a majority of players, and is probably better than 99% of the entire player base can do, even if they follow a build guide.
