SST Juggernaut Build new meta?
|
I haven't played marauder really ever, havent played melee ever either
SST appears to be proj based but with the new jug ascendancy, looks like it would be GG for SST/proj anyways + Survivability **looking for advice from those knowing this class, ascendancy changes and knowledge of what SST could be to confirm this looks as viable as it does to me... I got a fever and the only prescription, is more cowbell! Perandus Jewels: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3584147 Last bumped on Feb 28, 2018, 4:29:19 PM

Juggernaut has pretty much only defensive ascendancy passives. It should work about equally well with any offensive skill, assuming you pick something that has a reasonable number of offensive nodes near the Marauder start.
The only node that's somewhat specific is Undeniable, which affects attacks that can miss. (Yes this will work with SST, for what it's worth.) Last edited by Abdiel_Kavash#5296 on Feb 27, 2018, 4:37:38 PM

" part of the reason i am circling around this build is the availability of shield passives in the vicinity as well, very easy to get 200%+ shield mods from a couple clusters while still hitting the most popular life multipliers too........ I got a fever and the only prescription, is more cowbell!

" Those don’t affect SST. Last edited by DichotomousThree#0868 on Feb 27, 2018, 4:42:50 PM

" Modifiers to shield defenses from the tree (or from anywhere other than the shield itself) will not affect the damage of SST. Sure, they have a bit of synergy because they augment the defenses from blocking. But don't expect to stack them to increase your DPS. Last edited by Abdiel_Kavash#5296 on Feb 27, 2018, 4:43:51 PM

not meaning the shield multipliers to affect DPS, but to stack further damage prevention more than anything else. a true tank in every sense of the word

" Yup, that should work! Also take a look at Gladiator if you want blocking to be your main source of defense. There should be projectile damage nodes closer as well. That is the main issue I can see with Marauder: there is almost nothing that scales your damage anywhere nearby on the tree. You will either have to travel far, or do some conversion shenanigans.

" im thinking getting the phys from SST in addition to WED synergies, stacking enough flat phys increases from abyss jewels, going phys conversion from a shaper stat stick then an elder amulet to convert non chaos to chaos, this should melt anything in the game with relatively little risk of death from 99% of the content in the game I got a fever and the only prescription, is more cowbell!
