Build Guide

Hi Everyone,

I've been working on a unique new build to compete with the monk's for a support class with 3 DH's or 2 DH and a WD (Best if all other classes are high damage). Here is how it works, you max out toughness and cooldown reduction and if you have extra stats get life regeneration. The buffs that you give your other players are 100% extra CHD, 15% AS (critical), 20% damage and crowd control (sheild glare) and each player will have a big circle of consecration adding 50k life per second. I can cruise through GR 40 and not die once and give a ton of benefit to everyone with you. I run at about 70 mil toughness buffed out and I know I can probably get it higher. Anyways, here is a breakdown of the gear,

Head - Leoric's crown is best as getting your cooldown as high as possible gives permanent buffs to your party. Use diamond in socket. Ideally get AR/Vit/Str and socket.

Shoulders - Akkhan for sure with AR/STR/VIT and CDR

Amulet - Xepherian amulet with a socket and toughness bonuses are best, the electric will kill you a lot more than other ground effects.

Torso - Akkan chest - AR/VIT/Str, 3 sockets - use all AR gems

Wrists - this one is a bit of work in progress and open to suggestion, I like nemesis because in GR you can spawn another champ pack for your team but they aren't the best defensive. slave bonds may be better.

Hands - Akkhan gloves with Str/Vit/AR/CDR

Waist - this one is open to suggestion as well, I use string of ears and think it's best but vigilanty will add CDR.

Legs - Akkhan with 2 sockets (AR gems) - AR/Vit/STR

Feet - Use Akkan with all defensive - AR/Vit/Armor/Str

Rings - this one i'm experimenting with but you definitely need the RROG with defensive stats and a socket, but the second I like the Rogar's Huge Stone because you will be gaining so much damn life that it makes a huge difference in survivability. The justice lantern is good for block chance which will help you hallowed bulwark.

Weapon, - must have an Inviolable faith, this is the bread and butter of the build, add a purple gem in socket and CDR on weapon. This will give all allies the 50k life per second on them which saves DH's and WD's like no tomorrow,.....oh ya it helps you too., With good CDR 55%+ all your buffs are up pretty much 100% of the time.

Sheild - Hallowed Bulwark interacts with Iron Skin so well I can't see anything else better. Get all defensive stats on it. I use a socket so i get the finery bonus and more AR.

Gems -

Gogok of toughness - the 15% extra CDR is awesome and AS isn't bad because it procs your life on hit from purple gem and paragon points.

Moratorium - Awesome for melee and tanks

Invigorating Gem - Amazing for the bad ground effects.

Paragon points

Don't go crazy on the vit and life % because you want your life to not too high so the regen is more effective.

Oh and this build uses ZERO wrath so no need to worry on wrath depletion.

I haven't seen this build yet and it is working great, I would like to hear how others like it and any input, i'm always trying to make it better.

Cheers!

UPDATED!
A new huge benefit of this build is your ability to revive others even when elite packs are dropping frozen, poison, fire affixes, etc. Basically if a DH or WD dies during an elite battle its likely you'll have no problem reviving them unless you physically cant move to get him from effects like waller.
