[3.22] Chieftain GC Hybrid concept

So here am I with a new build. Last league I was having a lot of fun with slams, so I knew already which one I will play this time.
slams are a bit outdated tho. Attacks always batter than slow and clunky slams.
But this time GGG actually helped me to realize something. The thing is.. They made Tawhoa's Forest strength cooldown to be 1 second. And I really liked the new Tawhoa. I dont know why, it just feels that he really helps when I'm clearing maps.

So.. long story short, I started simple slams, exerted attacks, all this.. But when we're building something, we have to think about the fact if every aspect of the build synergizes with the other one. And the problem with Tawhoa is that he isn't affected by your exerted attacks. Yes, u can like boost your attacks to deal 20-30m a hit, but he doesnt care. He won't do that damage. So after all I decided to go the other route. Route of GC berserker, but with a way to actually benefit from Tawhoa and 7-th link. So.. here we are.

This thing feels incredible in maps. Everything dies, everything explodes, and you attack pretty fast with 1.8-2.0 attacks per second.
This build uses full phys to fire conversion, Sunder with Shockwave as a main skill. 87% allres, 40k armor, but no molten shell on cwdt. The reason is.. we're super socket-starved. Like incredibly. 12 sockets used for two 6L setups for you and General Cry brothers. Overall, I'm looking for someone to work on the build with me. What I realize now is that we need some better way to scale damage. Maybe Ice Crash with Heatshiver and Trinity, or maybe even something else. I can see my current setup pretty min-maxed as dealing like 20-25m full damage (now it deals 14.5m without the real Tawhoa numbers) and I want to boost it further. 40-50m should be possible, but the way of scaling the damage has to be changed. So.. if someone is interested, lets work together.

So, the build is finished.

I changed it quite a bit to build around Heatshiver, Hatred and Trinity. It is not fully optimized right now and it deals around 31m-32m full dps. 5 Deli Orbs possible, finished a map today in 1 portal. Heatshiver doesnt work well tho, it helps only against small mobs, but its okay nonetheless.

I think overall this is one of the best slammer builds. It is pretty fast, it has defences, half of your dps comes passively from GC, etc.
