Level 89 Crit Ice Crash Juggernaut^3.25

Notes

Notes
-----------------
 - I league started with this build and scaled it up over time. Nothing is absolutely essential, but there are a few pieces that are worth aiming for as you go.

 - Use Sand stance while mapping (extra Area of Effect is huge)

 - Use Blood stance for bosses and chonky rares (30% more damage)

 - If you do NOT have the mana reservation efficiency to sustain auto-exerting 3 war cries, then just drop Infernal Cry. We don't need it, it just juices Overexertion DPS.
 - Similarly, if you don't have enough sockets, ditch Rallying Cry. This is the same concept - we do not care about the gem itself, just using it for Overexertion DPS.

 - Keep war cries up to boost damage with overexertion, and Ice Crash to clear screens. Enduring Cry is great, make sure to weave it in.

 - As we auto-exert 3 war cries, you only need to refresh Battlemage's Cry and Rallying Cry, which each exert 6 attacks! So not needing to use these often.

 - You can take the War Cry mastery 'War cries cannot exert travel skills' while levelling. If you can get this on a piece of gear (rings/belt) later on, even better - this frees up the passive point for a better mastery.

Gems
-----------------
 - Ice Crash + Cold Penetration + Elemental Damage with Attacks + Fist of War + Overexertion + Pulverise 
 - Intimidating Cry + Seismic Cry + Infernal Cry + Autoexertion
 - Enduring Cry
 - Cast When Damage Taken + Molten Shell + Blood Rage
 - Leap Slam + Faster Attacks

 - Hatred
 - Precision + Arrogance
 - Blood and Sand

Dual Curse Setup Gems
-----------------
 - Battlemage's Cry + Frostbite + Urgent Orders + Rallying Cry
 - Note: These gems require Whispers of Doom annointed on your amulet first, in order to apply two curses (the other being Assassin's Mark from the Oskarm unique gloves)

Ascendancies
-----------------
 - LEVELLING: Undeniable / Unflinching / Unrelenting / Unyielding
 - This gets you accuracy (huge DPS increase), then lots of defences, then more DPS

 - ENDGAME: Unstoppable, Unflinching / Unrelenting / Unbreakable
 - Only swap Undeniable out when you can guarantee 100% hit chance without it.
 - Only take Unstoppable if you are NOT using Kaom's Roots. If you do use Kaom's Roots, take Unyielding instead for more DPS.

Gear
-----------------
 - Fleshripper axe with as much Phys dps as possible (for the implicit 50% crit chance)

 - Rare gear with as much armour, life and resists as possible. Later on get eldritch implicits for boosting damage and survivability

 - Endgame: Jewels with as MUCH crit multiplier as possible. Best case 4 mods with crit multi, but very expensive. I don't have any of these yet.

Unique Gear
-----------------
 - Kaoms Roots
 - Great first budget unique while levelling, some still use this right through to endgame IF not using dual curse set up. 
 - If you do go with these, get the Corruption for +1 endurance charges. You can also swap the 'Unstoppable' ascendancy for something else.

 - Oskarm Nubuck Gloves
 - Our way of getting a nice amount of crit and accuracy, and applying assassin's mark to targets that need it (any rare or unique enemies)

 - Pandemonius
 - Likely your first big purchase of the build, offers a great defensive layer in blinding and chilling enemies on hit, and slowing their action speed by 30%. ALWAYS. 
 - Really huge amulet, but any rare with a cheap annointment while gearing up does the job

Flasks
-----------------
 - Life Flask with instant recovery for dicey situations
 - Diamond Flask for crit chance
 - Taste of Hate for more cold DPS
 - The Wise Oak with uncapped cold resist highest for more DPS and penetration
 - Lion's Roar for defences
