So there is one big change to Chieften which allows for fairly easy Endurance Charge generation in 3.7 even against bosses. I don't think Enduring Cry is even needed any more(maybe not even the red dream jewel?).

How do the overall changes to the ascendancy look to you for this build in 3.7?

its only a 35% chance to get an endurance charge, so i would still use the jewel for generall mapping. if its worth to drop the enduring cry against bosses ? hmm maybe, but i would more see it as a nice addition than a replacement because imho 35% isnt that much to feel strong enough against bosses

i think we have two good option now:

a) [16] [14] [1] [3]
or
b) [16] [14] [12] [8]

and booth are good and viable picks i think. in the end it will be a personal choice

Thanks! I think those are both good choices too.

Just to make sure I understand the mechanics, it is a 35% chance to create a charge every single time you attack right? It is not 35% on hit if I understand it. All you need to do is attack. So I guess attack speed makes a difference?

Will you be updating the build for 3.7 when the full info comes out or do you think you will leave this at a 3.6 level?

I am a little confused on the Immortal Call change for 3.7.

Are we still going to link it with CWDT, or are we going to have to self cast it to be useful? I am going to suck at doing that because I have a hard time seeing when a big hit is going to come.

Both is possible. But if you link it with cwdt, it won't be active on the big hit you get in the first place.

Without cwdt you have the possibility to prevent one-shot mechanics.

In the old system, would CWDT-IC prevent massive one shots or did it trigger after the one shot was absorbed?

what I am hoping is that for good players using new IC self cast is better but for bad players like myself, CWDT-IC is no worse than it has been in the past(outside of the damage type and amount changes).

Immortal Call is now instant and grants less Physical and Elemental damage taken for its duration. It can consume up to 5 endurance charges, gaining increased duration and additional less Physical Damage Taken. At level 20, this can mitigate 35% of Physical damage taken and 34% of Elemental damage taken. Consuming Endurance Charges adds an additional 10% less Physical Damage taken for each charge consumed. Unlike Molten Shell and Steelskin, the skill has no maximum damage absorbed which makes it a much more effective answer to the deadliest of physical hits. However, it requires more planning and timing to make the most of its effect and no longer grants complete immunity to physical damage.

its the same. before and now it procs after an set amount of dmg taken. but before the rework the buff you got was phys immune, and now its a dmg reduction. additional to the phys reduction which stacks with endurance charges, you now get an additional 34% elemental dmg reduction.

Hi. Maybe a bit scrubby question, but could someone explain to me where mana sustainability comes from?
Playing as juggernaut. Thanks for your help and love the build (as well as I know how to play it so far)
