Support/Tank Crusader GR40+

I decided to find out a new possibility to play Crusader as a tank that dont die in Grifts 35+
Its not that effective like CDR Monk but i hate seeing u only can get high in Grifts with a monk ...
So i found out a way you can run higher grifts even without a CDR Monk ...
ALL YOU NEED IS ...

Gear...

Head: You need a Leorics Crown With Str,Vit and All Resi on it you need to Socket CDR in it
Shoulder: Just take Pauldrons of Akkhan with Str,Vit,All Resi and CDR (7%+ should be on it)
Torso: Breastplate of Akkhan with Str,Vit and 3 sockets my fourth opinion was Reduced dmg by elite u need to socket All Resi in all 3 sockets
Hands: Gauntlets of Akkhan with Str,Vit,Armor and CDR (8% would be great)
Legs: Cuisses of Akkhan with Str,Vit,All Resi and 2 Sockets (in both sockets u need All Resi)
Feet: Sabatons of Akkhan with Str,Vit,Armor and All Resi
Wrists: You can take everything u want best choose in my opinion Ancient Parthan Defenders cuz the Defense but also Nemesis is great for shrines but it dosnt matter you just need Str,Vit,Life per Hit and Life per Sec if u can get one with all Resi take em :3
Waist:If you need more CDR take Viliante Belt if not take String of Ears cuz they give u alot more toughness
should be Str,Vit,All Resi on it (CDR on Viliante and on String u can take %Life)

Amulet: In my opinion is Xephirian Amulet the best choose u can take cuz lightning dmg will kill you easier than arcane or others but i can take what u want if u got a good one you need Str,Vit,CDR and a socket on it yeah its much if you dont have it like that just take it with Str and Socket on it thats a must have :3
Rings: You NEED Ring of Royal Grandeur cuz u only have 5 Akkhans pieces but need the 6th set bonus and as 2nd Ring u can take whatever you want Justice Latern is really great cause of the Blockchance or Rogars Huge Stone cause of the Lifereg but you can also take Unity if its a good roll you need to have Str,Vit,CDR and Socket on both
Weapon: Inviolable Faith is a really great choice cuz your Consecration gets on all your mates that heals them really great and there is a slow for enemys more mates more slow and more heal :D should be CDR,Life per Hit on it
Shield: I Prefer Stormshield or Ivory Tower cuz of the Toughness they give but also The Final Witness is great for it on the Shield should be Str,Vit,All Resi maybe %Life or Blockchance

The tactic we need to do is just support our team that they dont die we should reached like 60% CDR now and we can perm spam Shield Glare and have almost an uptime from 100% of our Law of Valor,Consecration and Akarats Champion
We cant easily now because we have like 50million Toughness in Akarats and perm Shield Glare what should the monsters do? Nothing Right !


100% uptime of Shield Glare means 20% more dmg all the time
100% uptime of Akarats Champion means we cant die easy
100% Consecation means Lifereg for our team and slow/freeze for our enemys so they cant reach our Mates thats what we
want!
100% uptime of Laws of Valor means 100% more Critdmg all the time for all your mates and 8% Atk
Speed!

Ironskin if your in emergency but you can use it all the time but no 100% uptime for that ;( If you use your Ironskin monsters cant get you down for sure!
and Smite with the Glyph Reaping is just for more lifereg you can also take another glyph or spell for it .


Thanks to Inviolable Faith we get like 4 Consecrations thats a lot of slowgrounds and freezes for the enemys and lifereg for our team :)

Legendary Gems should be used...


Gogok - Attackspeed for our Life per Hit and CDR for spamming more and more spells thats just great!
Moratorium- You wont get hit that hard cuz of this and your lifereg will easily recover it :D
my 3rd choose would be Simplicitys Strength cause of the 2% Health you gain everytime using a Primaryskill would be great
but also can use Gem of Efficacious Toxin for the 10% more dmg for all your
mates.

Paragon...

First: Movementspeed until 25% > Vit
Second: Cooldownreduce > Attackspeed, we dont need critdmg or critchance
Third: All Resi > %Life=Lifereg, you should take %Life Equal Lifereg because you need lifereg but also need life
Fourth: Life per Hit
