[2.4] Strong, Independent Guardian Don't Need Nobody
Do you want to provide massive party bonuses, but still be able to solo content? Do you like casting two spells to kill multiple screens of mobs? Do you like ignoring most mechanics and regenerating through tons of damage?
Character DeathloksDeathknight (EHC, lvl 90) https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/xDeathlok/characters Pros Incredible survivability; 1500+ ES regen per second, 28k evasion, 32k armor, triple purity, 700+ energy shield and 80+ mana regen provided to party, grace, determination, open curse for party members to use, 14-15k essence drain dmg (on 5L). Lorica is a suitable substitute for early mapping. Can solo uber lab (even with Lorica). Cons Shav's is obviously expensive. Bosses can take a while in solo.

Purity of Ice, Fire and Lightning Stone Golem Enduring Cry Lightning Warp (or Flame Dash) Gear Weapon: Rare wand with high spell damage (cast speed, int, mana are good secondary stats). Consuming Dark is decent alternative and allows you to sacrifice wither totem for WB/Fort. I got significantly more damage out of the wand. Chest: Shav's. Solaris Lorica can be used as an alternative. I had about 7k ES while wearing Lorica, which was fine for low level mapping. Shield: Prism Guardian. No alternatives here. Helm: Rare helm with ES and mana. I would recommend buying an Essence Drain damage or duration hubris and crafting it. Gloves, Belt and Boots: Rare with ES and mana. Chaos res is also good. Ring1: Lori's Lantern provides some great chaos resistance, movement speed and estimated 6% overall damage reduction (as high as 20% damage reduction against lightning spells). Ring2: High ES ring with str/dex and mana. Amulet: +ES/+ES% amulet with high base stats. Chayula is an option, but we get stun immunity from Bastion of Hope on the guardian ascendancy. Jewels Conqueror's gets us to 66+% aura effectiveness, which translates into the 5th max res from purities at lvl 19 or lower. At lvl 20 purities, this jewel can be replaced. Flasks Ascendancy Order -Bastion of Hope -Radiant Faith -Unwavering Faith -Prayer of Glory I went Bastion of Hope first because this was my first character in EHC, so I did not intend to be in support mode for a while, which drastically reduces the effect of Radiant Faith and Unwavering Faith. Once I picked up Solaris Lorica and Prism Guardian, I changed over to low life support and beat Merc Lab to get Unwavering Faith. Enjoy being the most popular kid on the block!

How do you get/calculate 1500 ES regen per second?
You have 3% life regen from the tree + zealot's oath + approx. 10k ES = 300 ES regen per second? |
