Overview
Crusade Deflect/Extended Stun Tanking Build (viable at game release)
Welcoming note
First of all welcome to this guide. Well not actual a guide more for a viable build for melee crusader.
Skill Tree
Survival is the aspect of this build as it is a tanking build. Untill now it is soloing build but end game i hope it could actually word as a viable choice for tanking purposes.
Firstly i hitted Defence.
Then i’ve gone Debuff.
Next Puritan Path unlocks.
And lastly i’m hitting Hit Points.
Perks
As i’m soling atm and damage aspect is crucial for leveling i maintain these perks for now.
These are in order to change depending on end game tanking aspect if an actual co-op is implemented. Most possible perk to maintain is only the one with Movement Speed if i cannot allocate end game relics some mobility boost.
Equipment
This is actually crucial for build to work. You need a Power Hammer and all items possible to have Deflect Rating on them.
My current Deflect Rating is 50% which with Feint Mastery (Perk) is actually giving +50% to all damage.
Generic Tips
Just be mindful with usage of Inoculator charges ( this depends on how many uses you actually have in a mission – i have only 4 so i usually hold back till i need it mostly). Also it’s a “draw attention to me so mass damage from other party members clear them all” and i usually no need to use any cover tactic except for more than loads of incoming mass damage. Till i finish my levelling that’s it.
Thx again.
