I have the same shield you are using in my stash, holding it for a Crusader or something. My offhand weapon is terrible, so my DPS doesn't even drop down that much. With mantra of healing, and shield, I'm up to about 12 million toughness, and 330k sheet DPS. That's still with Dex gems, instead of Vitality. Not as tanky as you, but I think still a good start to the tank build.I mean.. what would I give up instead? Crucial resource cost reduction for crit damage (the real dps stat... STILL)? The absolutely ridiculously amount of vit/resist all it takes to be able to hold together T6 elite packs in rifts?
Seriously I'm packing 20million toughness and shit still gets QUITE rowdy trying to hold T6 shit together... I still don't even think I can tank mallet lord packs HEH.
Also? There's no cindercoat for godly cost reduction for physical... you take dat shit where you can get it.
Like I said, feel free to add me for more Q&A and to see it in action. It is lols and I don't think should be nerfed because I'm going for perfect rolls other than CHD on all my slots (the royal ring is from my DH and I'm not fuckin it up), not to mention it doesn't solo well. It's just nice to see a theorycrafted support build be so effective and not some billion dps shit or abusing a legendary bug effect for once in this expac.
MannerCookie - Community - Diablo IIIOne of the Crusader streamers, MannerCookie, has it to about a 1.5s cooldown, so it's very doable.
My gear isn't that great, but I'm also running a lightning "pbaoe" build. Most things WILL clump up on you, and for the ones that don't, I run condemn - vacuum. It's up enough with some CDR to reset pretty much anytime you actually need it, and a lot of the time you just want to throw it in.On what difficulty? Been unimpressed with Blessed Hammer's meltability unless it's a clumped large pack.
I am doing T1 but I probably doubled my speed by swapping to lightning so I might bump it up to T2.On what difficulty? Been unimpressed with Blessed Hammer's meltability unless it's a clumped large pack.
im not sure how, I have insanely low cooldowns right now with my build, if I had this 6 pc I would literally be a god.So I got 5pc akhan yesterday (6pc with ring) and it's really boringaccordion - Community - Diablo III
Wish crusader had a better bonus considering how awesome some of the other classes stuff is.
Except you'd probably lose a lot of the cdr with akhan pieces that don't roll proper.im not sure how, I have insanely low cooldowns right now with my build, if I had this 6 pc I would literally be a god.
I'm with you but the efficiency lost is so great that it's simply not worth considering. I wonder how long it will take them to pull their heads out of their asses and make T2-6 worthwhile. 15% is a sad fucking joke, blood shards don't increase AT ALL, and we've already been over the retardation of bounty caches plenty of times here.I love running higher difficulty levels, because I don't have that much fun if I just melt everything. I like a little challenge with it. So depending on time, I might run bounties on T1, instead of Normal. And for Rifts, if I'm with a group, hell, let's bump it up a bit!!
500k gold? That's weak. Try spending 20mil and still not getting what you want, fucking amulets. And gold isn't that hard to obtain either. You gotta make sure to pick up everything and sell it. I started RoS with 95mil, got up to 105mil. Spent a bunch, dropped to 70mil. Got it back up to 98mil, then blew a bunch making gems, dropping me to less than 50mil. Sitting at 70mil right now. Would probably be back up to 100mil if I didn't need more crafting mats. But, got my stash back almost full. In one rift run you'll easily be able to get a full inventory+some if its a full clear.Considering gold has no fuckin worth beyond your own personal characters i dont get the high prices. You cant sell it, you cant share it - so why the fuck does it cost so much to make gems, remove gems, or reroll items. I can hit 500k sometimes before i can get the proper stat i want for an item. There is no point in a gold sink when it serves no purpose and cannot be shared.
