[3.23] Versatile Combatant Impale Shield Crush Slayer - Crush the Atlas - SSF Compatible

So I'm about halfway through Act 1 following your guide, and my first big thought/question is what Affixes are priority for leveling? You covered weapon and gems well enough with the Guied/PoB, but I don't see anything discussing Armor implicits/affixes.

My assumption is armor-evasion gear with Health, Resistances, More Armor, More Evasion?

EDIT: I've now finished Act 1. Thanks for reminding me of the vendor recipe for weapon damage in the guide, as soon as I used it halfway through Act 1, it became much smoother sailing.

It's the general affixes for levelling: health and resistances. The only damage you need to worry about is using the weapon recipe on your weapon (axe or sword, sword is technically better) as you go through the acts to keep damage up. It's more damage to do 2H but you can 1H + shield as well if you want.
Hi quick question about fortification.

Do we only have it when we place the banner ?

Once you get the mastery passive 'melee hits fortify' then you will get it whenever you hit something with shield crush. It's very easy to keep it at max stacks.
I was looking for it everywhere i didnt check the masteries. I checked gems and everything else i did the wiki XD

That means if you have no mana issues, you get 3Green Prismatic and socket in Culling support.
p.s. The Blue sockets as per Prismatic unique mod, gives you mana leech.

But as a Slayer Cull is already in Headsman so cull is not needed here?

We don't need culling strike support and get culling strike from ascendancy. Sorry about that! It's something I missed since we used to run Gladiator as default (which doesn't have built in culling strike). I will update the POB when able.
