Wanted to ask few things well first one is it possible to do shaper with this (you said its not with low-life one) seccond wouldnt it viable for elemntist too ? i mean %25 pen + %100 ele dmg every 10 sec + buffs from golems like %40 fire dmg + %40 ligh. dmg %40 inc dmg %18 as ? she is near to your tree anyway like 5 nods or less

Shaper wasnt tested but from what I know it will be very difficult (or even impossible) to do it with this build version.

You wont get 25% ele penetration bonus with Elementalist and Mjolner. Those skills triggered by Mjolner dont count as "used" or "casted". The only thing Elementalist provides to Mjolner is some ele increase nodes. And thats nothing intresting compared with 40% MORE global dmg from Berserker or ignoring elemental resistances from Inquisitor or having a 25% chance to blast with 8-9 endu charges as Juggernaut. Elementalist is a weak class for Mjolner.

Hi again, I have a question, why did you use Lightning Strike and Molten Strike to proc Arc and Discharge? why not only 1?

Its just a question cause I m noob :P

Both Lightning Strike and Molten Strike are just triggers for Mjolner. Those are melee skills that fires lots of projectiles. Every projectile hit counts toward triggering spells socketed in Mjolner. More than that Mjolner has a property "skills chain +1 time" and it has an effect on lightning strike chaining trough mobs in packs, hitting them multiple times, triggering spells. While Molten Strike fires up many projectiles on a single target. This is why its used for bosses.

However it might my possible to use only Lightning Strike for both with decent attack speed (4+ aps). I didnt test that as Im so used to Molten vs single target.

Hey, big thanks for all the testing, you told me to try the zerker version for HC. so thats what im doing. i have been farming the items on my other char. so just wondering how much resist is needed on the ring and belt for capping?

Just look at my current gear. From what I recall it doesnt have to be T1 rolls on everything. Rather like T2 ius enough.

For HC Juggernaut version is also very good. But stick to whatever you allready started.

Cool, was just unsure if you had any resist on jewels. just gotten to merc so still abit to go before im ready to go mjolnir. havnt done lab yet. so could still go juggernaut. but think im gonna go with zerker tryed juggernaut in 2.4 or 2.3

Well first thank you for all this test.
Then i asked myself, why not go on pure MoM ?
With new passiv behind MoM, maybe one or two around the tree and mana form intel, we get a huge amount of Hp effiscient. We could go no aura and get clear mind to close the dps gap with juggernaut for exemple.
Or get enought mana for some aura or blasphemy, depend of the situation ( blasphemy for trash / defensiv aura for boss).
I think a passiv tree like that: Lvl 91 tree
Maybe i go overkill with mana, but it could be a really tanky version with few downstep.

I was planing to go pure MoM in the first place but than it turned out that build will have 600-ish mana left after all needed auras. This is not enough to support 5k life pool with 70%/30% dmg split.

Hi!
I was reading your update of Mjolner. I was wondering if it's a good idea to switch "Ghost Reaver" with some jewel with "+x ES gained for each enemy hit by your attacks".
I used them in 2.3 with a MoM+EB version of Mjolner and it worked quite well

To "switch" rather not. At least I dont recommend it. To "support" it - yes.
