[1.2.1.2] Burn damage Shieldbreaker

Hello! Sharing my second build ever, a burn damage Shieldbreaker using the Virtue’s Light set.

I have yet to try celestials or the Conclave with it but I managed to do 75-76 SR with little problems.

The build runs Aegis of Menhir for damage, Blackwater cocktail for damage, reduced damage and reduced resistances, Guardian of Empyrion for fire RR, Eldritch Fire for fire RR, Thermite Mine for more fire RR, Elemental Storm for RR, Meteor Shower and some items procs for damage/burn damage.

For defenses it relies on a not very impressive 800ish hp regen and a shield. It does have leech but its not very strong. It also runs Ascension for damage absorption and bonus to block, Phoenix Fire for more damage absorption, Giant’s Blood for healing, Ghoulish Hunger for healing and a burst in Physical res, Wayward Soul for Healing, a Prismatic Diamond, and both Blast Shield and Resilience.

Maina dvantage is that it can be played from range and doesn’t need to stand still and attack to deal damage.

For the hand slot I had no idea about what to use, Gauntlets of Ignaffar are a good option for damage, but I didn’t want another skill.

Any tips on how to improve it would be appreciated.

You can drop Elemental Storm from your Devotions since that RR type is covered by Agonizing Flames on your BWC.

You could also save points from Searing Light by dropping it down to 25% chance of fumble

Thanks!
I swap Crown for Lizard and moved some points into flashbang for the DA reduction.
