[2.2] HC - Varunastra Earthquake Tank/Block Build

This is an alternate take on the Lazy Pally build... instead of elemental skills + Doryani... we go physical skill + Varunastra


This build can be done with Marauder, Templar or Duelist

Gear + Gems

Spoiler


The bread + butter! A medocre roll Varunastra.
Leap Slam + Faster Attacks for map movement. Herald of Ash.



Earthquake + Added Fire + Melee Physical Damage + Less Duration
5th Link: Fortify
6th Link: Increased Area of Effect



Abyssus does wonders for our DPS... but is a bit dicey in higher level maps. Feel free to swap out with a high-life + armour helm (and res if you need it) but with less clear speed.

Stun + Endurance Charge on Melee Stun + Riposte + Reckoning - Keeps our Endurance Charges at 4




Lioneye's is a requirement.
(lvl 9) CWDT + (lvl 11) Immortal Call + (lvl 14) Molten Shell




Also necessary, huge help with spell block!




Really helps with our spell block, cheap and makes a noticeable difference!
Vengeance + Curse On Hit + Enfeeble. Vaal Grace



(lvl 3) CWDT + (lvl 7) Tempest Shield. Summon Ice Golem. Hatred.
Life, Res, Phys Damage



Life, Res, Armour



Life, Res, Phys Damage
