Notes

The three main resurvation skills I leveled with were Flesh and Stone, Purity of Elements, and Herald of Purity
Once I got Soul Taker and resurvation efficency on Helm, Amulet, and Enlighten support, I swithced to Pride.

The build works fine without Soul Taker. Just need to manage resurvation skills. 

While leveling I took Spirit of War, and Cannibalistic Rite to help with mana costs till I got Elreon crafts and Soul Taker

I still need to save up a bit more  to get Eater/Exarch influence on all my gear. Will give a bit more power once I have those. 


While leveling through the campaign, I would suggest just using Herald of Fire and maybe Precision as resurvation skills. The bleed pops and Herald of Fire overkill explosions really carry for clear. 
Should be able to comfortably get through the campaign on a 4 link with that setup.

The big thing for feeling tanky is getting a sheild with the "recover 3-5% life when you block"
this is what will make you nearly immortal. I rolled mine myself, it is super easy. 
Just buy a Shaper sheild and use the Harvest bench to reroll life modifiers. Should get it without too much trouble. 

Also, getting the Endurance charges is huge. They give soooo much damage mitegation. 

When leveling rush to the melee splash node on the tree. Double Strike feels terrible till you have that. 

Make sure to get the +1 strike on the tree and from gloves. That will help with hitting more enemies. Until you have that, use Ancestral Call Support

if you want to see number go up, place the banner and add 100 to the in your presense option.
