*This build is BASED on Thorns, so you want as much THORNS DAMAGE as possible!,

Good Information about HOW THORNS WORKS:

There is multiple good setups for Weapon/Shield, I'd recommend:
a) T10: DB + LW or AA
Solo Push: PS + AA
c) Grift Speeds: DB + AA
d) Grift Push: PS + VS or AA
* Having correct stats is the most important thing! So if your LW is perfectly rolled and ur AA is junk, then use ur LW.
** LW = Lidless Wall (shield) --- BTW a tip for all, if you need a better Lidless Wall, then craft it on a barbarian. Your 8 times more likely to get a Lidless Wall on a barbarian from blood shards and upgrading rares to legendaries with Death Breaths than on a crusader.
** DB = DoomBringer (weapon)
** PS = Pig Sticker (weapon)
** AA = Akarats Awakening (shield)

SKILL ROTATION: Law/Prophet > Iron Skin (Phys CoE) > Consecration > Punish

Great Tips / Suggestions for the build:
1. Use Iron Skin and Consecration / Bombardment when you have +200 % Physical dmg from CoE.
2. In order for Belt of Trove to use "Barrels of Spikes" rune you must have Bombardment equipped.
3. Most important part of Belt of Trove, is to keep up the 50 % DMG Reduction from (4) set bonus.
4. ... (make comment if u got suggestions)

Needs to be Tested (feel free to help test):
A) Sanguinary vambracers if they work with (2) piece invokers
B') Hack, if it works multipliactive with strg and how much % dmg increase it is
C) Omnislash belt, see if it makes Punish deal AOE dmg. Maybe even procs Hack.
D) Slash, use rune Zeal. Reaching 3 attack per second, might work with Hack!
E) Voy'Toyias Spiker, See if it works multipli- or additive. Works with skills or not? Better than arats awakening?
F) Iron Skin, if you use it before Consecration, does it work for 4 seconds or all 10 seconds?
G) Snapshot, is Iron Skin / Thorns dynamic or static?
H) Blood Brother vs. The Mortal Drama, which one is the best?
I) Block cap? Do we go way above block cap with Blood Brother?

I play hc so which passive do i switch to an indestructable?
LoN bomb better than this for both solo and group, right?
Why go in Paragon with Str and no Vit for Thorns. And in Agmnents Str and no Vit ???
Build without CHC/CHD on the rings and CHD on the weapon? Can you explain me that please? I must admit, im little bit confused
Also, why Pig Sticker weapon that has no legendary ability?
Pig stickers is chosen because of the attack speed
Some one did the math, Vit is only good up to a certain point and then Strength overtakes it, especially the higher paragons you get to. So Vit only on gear, gem str everywhere else for damage.
Thorns damage cannot crit. You want uber attack speed to gain more stacks from 2 piece. In fact you are supposed to roll off the damage roll completely on the pig sticker in favor of something else like life on hit/area damage ect, because weapn damage doesn't affect thorns either.
More Str more Thorns !
Is it reasonable to reroll weapon damage to something else? This would not influence the thorns damage, right?
This build is based soley on throwing out your thorns damage as quickly as possible, the reason you dont see any crit stats anywhere is because thorns doesnt crit, we use the pig sticker because its a dagger, daggers have an attack rate of 1.61 and it does upwards of 30% extra damage to humans and beasts. the focus on this build is attack speed and cdr.
hello, why is this build have the tag group ? Some differences with the solo build and if, where can i find the solo build ?
thank you for the precision and for all the work, this is quite insane
A thousand thanks
i have 2 questions if you don't mind me asking , 1. what wep should i use "Pig Sticker" or "Hack" because it shows both ? 2. i heard "Heart of Iron" is better on the body and "Aquila Cuirass" is better in the cube ?
ok thank so so so so much for all the great guides and work you and your friends have been doing plz never stop
I have a nice pig sticker , + 28/28, full cdr, full attackspeed, near perfect strenght/vit a socket from that socketcubethingy- Rerolled weapondamage to full life on hit, third try!
I then panicked a little when the damage dropped to nothing on my characterinfo, and rerolled back to weapondamage....
I should have tested first, but my thought was that bombardment damage and other weapondamage based abillities would do zero damage.
On a scale from 1-10, how dumb was this?
because its a fast weapon. daggers are the fastest weapons....
So is Hack more viable than Pig Sticker now? Is it a either/or kinda thing?
Because strength gives more damage overall than the vit-thorn bonus.
The D3 planner link has the endurance rune on Steed Charge rather than spiked barding, is that intentional?
I can't understand why did u choose STR over VIT... it doesn't make sense... u will gain 300% of your vit as thorn with the effect of Heart of Iron... Yes i know i will got thorn per str.. but the gain of thorn with VIT that Heart of Iron gives u... it's like 3 times more thorns... Just change str for vit and u will see the numbers on d3planner
