this is a Two Hander melee build with NO EVASION. i went all in on Armour and Energy Shield. this time we took Zealot's Oath and to regen our energy shield and Time of Need Spirit Gem to cleanse ailments and keep our life maxed at all times. it has actual tankiness that allows you to absorb hits from level 80 bosses with full atlas points.



in Path of Exile 2 evasion and energy shield builds are way easier to build for damage, speed, and survivability, so just by going armour this build is totally off-meta. i'm hoping that once druid and templar come into the game we will have an very robust passive tree to support these kinds of builds to compete with the current meta.

28:45 once again, what im trying to achieve

29:58 it's slow but i like the concept

31:21 energy shield doesn't drop at all amidst the chaos

32:26 Block chance on Aegis Quarterstaff can be scaled
