[3.8] Righteous Fire / Scorching Ray Marauder (Juggernaut)

Look for rare Shaped helm that has “socketed gems deal 30% more elemental damage” option. Ideally you’d want that with “socketed gems are supported by level x Burning Damage”, but that’s more end-game option because it can be expensive to craft or buy. At the beginning just buy white shaped helmet and use Essence of Horror on it.

Kaom’s Heart is one of the best chests for Righteous Fire builds because they don’t need as many sockets as other builds. Chest also gives you huge life pool and some fire damage to go with it.

Look for rare gloves with as much life and resistances you can find. Dexterity on gloves would be ideal – you could potentially save a point on 2 on the skill tree.

Look for rare boots with 30% movement speed, high life and resistances. Ideally you should also have “Regenerate 2% of life and mane per second if you were hit recently” lab enchant on them.

2x Kaom’s Way rings are essential for the build because they give us life regeneration for each Endurance Charge. Since Juggernaut has a lot of Endurance Charges, these rings give tons of regen.

Note: make sure you do not get scammed, people often try to scam you by trading you Kaom’s Sign which is not one we need.

We need 2 of these rings.

Good amulet to start with would be Bloodgrip. It’s cheap and gives us some life regeneration and life.

Ideal amulet would be Elder Marble amulet with % life regeneration crafted on it.

Look for belt with high life and resistances.

Ideal belt would be Elder belt with “x% increased life recovery rate”, because it would affect our global regeneration and reduce Righteous Fire degen.

Doryani’s Catalyst is great all-around weapon for the build.

Cheap alternative would be Balefire.

With 3.8, there have come some new

There are 2 good shield choices – Rise of The Phoenix and Saffel’s Frame.

My suggestion would be to go for Rise of The Phoenix early and switch to Saffel’s  when you can comfortably sustain Righteous Fire degen.

On jewels look for:

1.) Increased maximum life / to maximum life (Abyss Jewels)
2.) Increased burning / fire / area damage
3.) Increased Damage over time
4.) Attributes if you are lacking

Put this jewel in slot under constitution keystone.

When you have some more currency, I’d strongly suggest investing in Vitality Watcher’s Eye.
Look for increased life recovery rate or flat regeneration one.

Look for following flasks:

1.) Instant Recovery Life Flask
2.) Forbidden Taste
3.) Witchfire Brew
4.) Quicksilver Flask
5.) Ruby Flask with burning removal for emergencies
