Notes

> FAQ <

> Jagged technique?? <
Aggrevation causes ALL bleeds on the enemy to be counted as if the enemy is moving.
I'm hoping we will have enough attack speed and bleed duration that we don't need it so we can capitalize on war of attrition, if it doesn't feel good then we will move back to Jagged Technique

> Why no Determination? <
Determination was nerfed, we already grab a bunch of endurance charges and new base types will give us more base armour.
This combined with the fact that Blood Magic solves all our mana issues and alleviates a bunch of socket pressure(no lifetap required) makes it better to just run Pride and drop all other auras.

> What about life on block shields? <
It won't be super easy to get a 3xT1 defense prefix on a shield and get the life on block mod, however a okay chance to get it would be getting the prefixes first on a shaper shield.
Then the next step is to do prefixes cannot be changed and reforge life, now that life on block is removed we should have a bigger chance to hit % life on block (Wasn't updated in craft of exile when i tried to simulate)

> My Single target is low how do I fix it? <
While leveling Shield crush should help out a lot, we scale our damage from our shield having either high armor, evasion or both so make sure you have a good shield. Base types are very important.

> PLAYSTYLE <
We mostly just shield charge and flame dash aroundand monsters will explode. Spectral shield throw into big packs should make really nice big explosions

On single target you want to cast Vulnerability and use a Bladestorm for maim. 

In bosses with their own loadscreen you'll want to use Enduring Cry to keep up Endurance Charges.

> LEVELING <
Our first goal is getting to level 12, this is probably the most painful part of leveling, we use Spectral Throw for it.

From leveling early on we are most likely gonna use sunder, shield crush COULD be viable but im unsure how it feels at low levels, sunder til 35-38 ish is a safer bet.
