[3.1] GLADIATOR 1H+Shield Max Block&Spell Block Tank + a BoR version
" what makes you think that spell block cap does not remain at 75%? has this been confirmed somewhere? |
|
" Probably the fact that Anvil has: +3% to maximum Block Chance |
|
" and this applies to spell block too? I was always under the impression that it doesn't. that's good news. |
|
yo Comrade
would you suggest me to play this build from start in a new league ? i like the defensive mechanics of the build, but i probably wont get a good 1h or aegis for quite some time. do you have any advices for this build in a fresh league ? and btw im playing HC |
|
Read patch note -> crit nerf -> nothing to do with this build
Read Gladiator skill table -> more power is waiting!!! I will definitely continue with this build!! Just a few hours left until I could become a Gladiator... It is as though a thousand mouths cry out in pain!!!

" Ahhh and what about the respect part? You saying we should rush to get RT then at a certain point we respec? |
|
I don't quite understand how the build is max block without BoR. i only count around 60ish, with a 27% block shield, the gladiator tree, passives, +1 block jewels, and Tempest Shield... Am I missing something?
Mess with the best, die like the rest.

" Absolutely, you don't need super expensive stuff to run this build. Even Aegis is like 40-50c after a few days in the league, at least in softcore. You can even get a http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Callinellus_Malleus, if you can't find any better weapon, since this sells for like 1 alch - 1c. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995
