Yeah I’m a retard, spent whole of yesterday evening not noticing its high spirit requirement. I also forgot to add a golden affinity needed for phoenix (I experiment with devotions using the no requirement setting)
How does your Sentinel build currently look like? Because it seemed like you adjusted it a bit based on other posters advice.
I’ve been tinkering with my build(s) and have ended up with 3 different versions.
They all have rather… monstrous prefixes and affixes on the pants and off-hand but should be perfectly fine with worse versions.
I call my build ‘A Judgment of Fire and Vire™’
Build 1: Tanky devotion setup with 21/12 Volcanic and 18/12 Tectonic

This one looks like the strongest one to me, dropping 4 Tectonic only costs 0.1 second and 33% burn damage. Using Mark of Ulzuin to convert Judgment lets me use the much stronger Wyrmbone Gauntlets and the build has so much DA that skipping Earthshatter Treads isn’t a significant loss.
Build 2: Tanky devotion setup with 22/12 Volcanic and 22/12 Tectonic
https://www.grimtools.com/calc/4Vx4QWrV
Compared to build 1 it has a rather significant loss of 140 OA (but gains 40 DA) and further loses 150 armor, 200% fire damage and 120% burn damage.
Build 3: Squishier devotion setup with 22/12 Volcanic and 22/12 Tectonic
https://www.grimtools.com/calc/4NOk1A4N
The weakest one. Comparing it to build 2 it loses a whole 150 DA (but gains 20 OA) and further loses 500 armor and 24% reduced target’s damage. But gains 85% fire damage and 140% burn damage.
I thought Meteor Shower was an obvious choice for a fire build but doubting it now. This version can not support the item build used in Build 1 due to its already low DA.
I wanted to post all 3 versions even though I’m pretty sure Build 1 is the strongest just for the sake of documenting some of the changes and to rationalize my choices.
