I want to try and keep the marked for death cluster, it really gives a good Damage boost plus the culling Strike, and considering whirling blades again, here is an alternative utility set up I was thinking of:

4s) whirling blades - faster Attacks - blind, Phase Run

(3s) Ancestral Protector, defiance banner, Smoke Mine

Just started my PoE adventure. Had some fun in Ultimatum league with Molten Strike Jugg. For last 2 days I've been searching for some fun builds for next league and it seems I found it finally :D I love tankiness and would like to try something more caster'ish. Thank you for your guide :)

Why do you not use enduring cry anymore?

Call to arms + enduring cry on left Mouse with the hc-pob is 1 Point for massive QoL and defence

So lvling this as my starter... and at 50.


Unless I'm doing something wrong or just the wrong set up... its not very tanky so far.

It's because you are not following the guide.
Where's your fortify in skill link? Did you get 2nd ascendancy point and dropped it? Nope.
Why are you pathing to shield nodes for attack, when in guide pob it says to take fortify effect wheel? Why take endgame nodes, before life nodes? Why skip life/att spd nodes at the start of the tree...BIG part of what makes you tanky (especially on Champion) is FORTIFY. Which is non existant on you, which is how you get damage+mitigation.
Just checked your PoB and you don't have even Phase Acro...
So there's reason why you would be tanky on any character, but you must take those skills/points to be tanky, not just BECAUSE someone says your tanky. The 1st Ascendancy node gives you a bit of mitigation + damage + stun immunity, but you took that asc node and do not use fortify support gem, so basically it has 0 effect.

Because the POB you just posted isn't the one you had prior.... so yes I was following your guide... had nothing of fortify support until you updated it..

Sorry for the confusion, but hopefully getting fortify should change your experience. You’re almost ready for second lab so that’ll give you permanent fortify.
