As the name suggests it’s your job to soak up enemy hits as well as your/their blood 24/7 without discretion or shamefulness. The build is a Ritualist Necro+Sham and specializes in physique/spirit, max health pool, and utilizing vitality/decay/bleed damage types. The period sponge cannot be killed, he cannot be bled dry or destroyed as much as everything tries their hardest. The sheer amount of blood it can soak up with it’s proc’s and sturdy nature cannot be matched. Without any delay here is the link, and note the gear isn’t all what it should be and with luck an updated build will be posted if i get my hands on improved armor/jewelry simply put leveling attained and/or traded for. https://www.grimtools.com/calc/dVb47MEN
I like the idea and you got me with the title.
What do you think of this variant? It’s a bit half assed with a bunch of skill points left over to use, but with a small DPS sacrifice it really boosts your defense.

I noticed you has some of the Necro WPS, but you didn’t have any abilities to trigger it. I moved those skill points around. I also swapped out the shoulders and belt for the two piece Wildblood bonus. Swapped out the boots to better reach some resist caps.
Overall the one I linked is still pretty shitty. Aether and Chaos resists are really low and elemental resists aren’t overcapped very much. It does offer far better OA/DA (still not amazing) and better armor and armor absorption. Also a lot more health! Mine might also suffer a little more with energy regen.
