Intro & build description
An amazing build to start in the new upcoming Archnemesis league. Leveling up is straight forward and the build can be leveled either with a two-hander or using the shield from the beginning. This build will fit someone who prefers characters who can take a punch and survive as the build is quite tanky and utilizes multiple layers of defense such as high life, high armor, and block change.
Build Pros
- Great league starter build
- Very tanky
- High damage
- High clear speed
- Mobile
Build Cons
