Infernal Knight could have a health regen support in the set

Pretty much the tittle

  • Set was nerfed two times in terms of dmg as well as a couple of other sills and items, but no defence was given.
  • Infernal Knight doesn’t have good defensive stats
  • Shieldbreaker itself feels as a pretty glassy class even with such tanky spec with lots of phys res, regen and absorption

Why Shieldbreaker is glassy?

  • No reliable proccer for sustain devotions. It’s possible to use passive sustain from Scales but:
  • Not enough passive defence, Scales can’t outperform incoming damage
  • Resilience and Blastshield often proc at the same time -> you lose two important defensive abilities simultaneously

Why health regen support?

  • Giant fits fire devotion map
  • Demo has regen support in a form of Vindicative Flame already (Oathkeeper could have it too, actually)
  • Free amulet slot for health regen Demo Conduit

I agree.

Zantai saw some overperforming IK Shieldbreakers and basically left the set out to dry. Even nerfed it the mods on. Except set itself was never the problem, it’s just the mad synergy that Shieldbreaker has when it comes to all things Fire. Without it, set is below mediocre: sucky stats, wrong resists, outdated set bonuses (set still gives flat Chaos to Judgement, like come on).

My two worst spinners are shieldbrakers because of low defense. I made a DW fire RF shieldbreaker and it kills fast but is extremely squishy. Shiledbreaker defense should be buffed generally not just one set.
