First of all i would like to say it's very hard to gear for this build, but if you have a general purpose LON setup, it won't be "that" hard.

There's quite a lot of options here gear-wise

Belt:

1) can be Sacred Harness for a little extra debuff

2) vigilante belt for extra cdr

3) witching hour for MAXIMUM dps (if you can survive)

Shoulders: can be anything ancient with CDR and heaven's fury damage. I prefer pauldrons for extra toughness (they always roll with armor though).

Gloves: St.Archews Gage for extra toughness, but if have really GG Stone Gauntlets you can try them (if you manage to survive)

Helm: Ancient Andariel's Visage with %Holy is really hard to find, and you will be really fragile without a socket as well (and you will have to roll OFF chc or IAS to socket), so after many tests i came to a conclusion that Leoric's Crown fits perfectly here and you can get extra elites from the Nemesis Bracers too. Helm of Rule is not worth it. You will still have around 63% block chance without it, and an extra 11% block chance is not worth it for a loss of 1000 vit.

Feet: Illusory Boots are must have. You need freedom of movement to reposition fast and stand in Oculus procs. If you don't have ancient : cube them.

Pants: Ideally you need Swampland Waders from your witch doctor. Roll %Holy there and add a strength augment. You are all set

Bracers: If you have GG Nemesis Bracers you can equip them and cube Bracer of Fury for maximum HF damage.

As for Legendary gems: gems listed here a required to effectively survive incoming damage in greater rift 80. Stricken is not THAT important, because if you die over and over again you won't stack it anyway And you still stack damage infinitely through Shield of Fury, so it somewhat compensates...

It would be GREAT to have stricken, but i did hundreds of tests and it's incredibly hard to withstand incoming damage in GR80 without at least 300 million toughness and a lot of recovery.

All normal gems: diamonds.

Build Guide

Hey guys!

One of the last crusader builds that i wanted to explore! It was called in many ways: holy gatling , holy shot, lon heaven's fury etc etc..

I would call it Holy Machinegun!

What i like about this build?

1) The only DPS build in the world that can do well without stricken

2) almost 80% of all damage is done through passive procs

3) incredibly fun and visually appealing

What are the cons?

1) Very hard to gear

2) Very hard to reach GR80

3) Very squishy

Some general tips and information:

1) You need recovery and life regen above everything else. If you can't recover fast = you will die no matter how much toughness or damage reduction you have. This is why we have gizzard and Bathed in Light

2) Elites are first priority, completely skip all small trash packs.

3) Try to cast Judgement a little before HOLY rotation of COE (on last second of Fire rotation).

4) RGs without adds and without fast melee attacks are very bad.

5) 5th passive : Finery, another decent passives: Renewal, Long Arm of the Law.

6) Blessed Ground is what affects Shield of Fury stacks and Shield of Fury stacks affect the damage of Fires of Heaven. You only gain stacks of Shield of Fury with Blessed Ground.

7) Attack speed affects Fires of Heaven, this is why we have Celerity instead of Fury.

8) Stack as much CDR as possible without losing CHD/CHC

Skill options:

1) Laws of Justice - Decaying Strength for massive debuff and toughness boost.

2) Punish - Fury/Rebirth

3) On the video i show Consecration instead of Iron Skin = it's a decent option, especially when you are have low life regen. Gives you 45k regen for 10 seconds. But when you have a high-levelled Gizzard and a lot of CDR you can try Iron Skin, it will give you more sustain.

4) Steed Charge instead of Consecration/Iron Skin if you feel you are too slow through the rift (not recommended).
