[2.4][HC-SC]JUGGERNAUT Cleave league starter Uberlab Farmer

Hello there.

This is my second guide so far .
1st guide was as Champion 2W league starter (used in 2.3 PHC league but updated to 2.4):

First of all i wanna say that,this is theoretic build,what i planning to start new league with.
(This build not full completed yet,but it will)
Any comments/critics/suggestions no matter good or bad will be appreciated.

MY IGN @IamWatcher

I will upload some like video-guide,or map farms ASAP i fix my PC issues.



I wanna share my own (theoretic ATM) build.
This build will make good effort as league starter build.
First of all i wanna say that this build very beginner-friendy and very cheap in comparing to simular meta builds ,even if you playing on HC.
Also you can tryout it even if you playing first time.

This build is based on uberlab farming and uberlab carrying ;clear maps.
I tested almost same build before , now i wanna share this build with some corrections due to 2.4 and new items.

This build is very budget friendly,cause it not required ,only desire some Uniques,but you can deal without them!
As soon as you can afford desirable uniques ,you will get increased clear speed and survivability.

Pros/Cons

Pros:
1.Very Tanky
2.Speed clear is good in late game
3.Fully UberLab doable
4.U can gear up step by step
5.0 required items(only desirable)
6.HC recommended
Cons:
1.Melee build
2.Resolute Technique build(means you will get peak)
3.Sustain mana is problem(you gonna need enchant or affix on gear)


Why i choose JUGGER over other melee related classes
Spoiler

1.Best synergy with new chest ,that i am planning to use in this build
2.Still best defences even with 25% to max endur instead of 100.
3.Uberlab doable with trash gear.


Why i choose Cleave over EQ
Spoiler

I know someone sees Cleave like
BUT
1.Cleave got buffed for 19% more damage .
2.EQ make people puke already,also it got nerfed,not a lot but anyway.
3.EQ had a lot of benefit from Voidheart,now Voidheart is trash.
4.You can scale Attack Speed therefore higher mobility with Leap Slam in compare to EQ
5.Cleave SeemsGood atleast for me.


Bandits and Ascendancy:
Spoiler
Bandits:
Normal:Oak;
Cruel:Oak but Kraitin is option too;
Merciless:Oak.

ASCENDANCY

1.Unyielding;
2.Unflinching;
3.Unrelenting;
4.Unbreakable.


Skill tree


LEVELING and GEARING TIPS
Spoiler

U will get Cleave very early.Level up with unique axes like :.After ,switch to good pDPS 2H rare axe ,this league you will have chance to carry insane rares with essences.
SO gear we want to have in late game :
Helmet - Desirable Devoto Devotion.Otherwise rare : 80-99 life roll;2-3resist rolls
Gloves -Base with new implicit. min 50life roll;attackspeed;added phys ;and desirable 2 or atleast 1 resist
Boots - high life roll ;high MS roll(or no MS roll);2Decent res.
Belt - New base belt.Life 100+roll ;200+armour ;resists
Chest - Desirable The Brass Dome,that works insane with last ascendancy.You can also use some other uniques(Lightning Coil;Belly of the beast or Kaoms ) or u can use good rare chest -life roll 100+;armour +evasion =750+;2 good resists
Rings - New base with flat phys.Life;resists;addded phys.Also u can use Diamond rings or elreon rings to sustain mana pool
Amulet - Stats(intelligence);life;resists
Weapon - AXE cause they have most higher damage in comparing to maces/swords.High pDps roll;High AS.
Jewels - Increased maximum life(better 6-7);Phys damage with Axes;AS with Axes>Also u can take melee dmg,area damage.


Gem setup
Spoiler

Cleave (in order or importance):
CLEAVE>MELEEPHYSDMG>FORTIFY>MULTISTRIKE>CONCEFFECT(INCREASED AREA)>ADDED fire

ANESTRAL PROTECTOR(it doing a big job against bosses like extra dps/culling strike/little taunting anyway):
ANES.PROTECTOR>CULLINGSTRIKE>MELEEPHYSDPS>ADDEDFIRE

LEAP SLAM(Despite all mobility and movespeed we using it):
LEAP SLAM>FASTERATTACKS>BM>FORTIFY

AURA SETUP:
HATRED>HERALD OF ASH>Enduring cry

IMMORTAL CALL setup:
CastWhenDmgTaken>ImmortalCall>IncreasedDuration>BloodRage

and also i would recommend to use Red(fire) golem.



Flask setup
Spoiler
2 Seething Divine life flasks ;Basalt with shock immunity;ToH(not necessary);Artizis Promise
If you havent enough currency to afford Taste of Hate,u can easily take Granite Flask

I will extend this build as much as you want if it will recieve any interest
If you have any questions about the build, ask me here or PM me in game and I will do my best to answer them.

Nice one, i gotta try both builds now, cannot decide which first tho :)
But... but... Earthquake...

Nah seriously tho, I will give Cleave a go just to see how it'll be after the buff.

Running a berserker tho so dmg. should be kinda crazy... hopefully.

Also.... It is a buff!
Trying to satisfy the whole PoE community is like telling a nymphomaniac to only have sex once in a week.

I think that's fairly accurate. :')

It's a bit more risky, sure but I like the reward I get (40% more dmg.)
Also with flasks and charges up it really isnt that bad.
Can facetank Uber Izaro np.

You cant get perma immortal call as Berserker+havent chance to double new unique armour.But damage better as berserker.

So i would recommend jug on HC and berserker on SC
Thanks for sharing. 2.4 Nerf bat on Unrelenting makes me hesitate to go berserker or juggernaut.

If you SC go berser. if Hc i would recommend jugger
It is my first time playing (other than getting a character to 45 years ago). I want a melee marauder and cleave looks one of the most likable skills, as I dont really like whirling around all the time, or relying on totems.

If something goes wrong, how easy is it to respec? It seems that the basics of most marauder trees are similar, even if it is a totem spec. Is it possible to respec easily by switching 10-20 points?
