Notes

For understanding what gear/skills to use in campaign check out the JUGGERNAUT VERSION. They have a near identical campaign experience. I'll put more work into this guide later into the league.

One of the nice benefits of Chieftain is being able to just Stack Fire Resistance. The only other resist you'll look out for is Chaos Resistance.





What auras to use in Campaign?
In the very early acts we'll be using Vitality, Later in Act 3 We'll gain Access to Purity of Elements & Determination. Use the Purity of Elements and hold the Determ till once you pickup the Auras Reservation nodes.
After securing Freeze Immunity on the Panthon we'll drop Purity of Elements in Favor of Purity of Fire & Skitterbots.

Rare Jewels might end up being expensive, remember you can look for many different combinations. I'll list some usable stats you can mix and match to save currency

Prefix
Life, Fire Damage
Suffix
Increased Damage, Fire damage over time multiplier, damage over time multiplier, area damage, burning damage, chaos resistance, dexterity, 


Which Large Cluster Jewels to use?
Anything with Prismatic heart or Burning bright in the front. You can also opt out for 12 Passsive clusters and try to craft them for stats like + Life & Chaos Res with Increased effect.

Which Medium Cluster Jewels to use?
Flow of life + Any combination

Swapping Determ for Malevolence
You can do this swap when you have around 60% Conversion.  Usually Taste of Hate + Cloak of Flame + Chaos Conversion on tree. This setup will feel MUCH Better with Defiance of Destiny (Amulet)

What % Roll do I go for on Adorned?
