4. First to Strike, Last to Fall
Fortitude
Gives us permanent fortify, which is a damage reduction on all hits of any damage type. Very strong defensively, but you can go for the Worthy Foe arm first if you want more damage.
Conqueror
Makes us taunt anything we hit, reducing the damage enemies deal to us and our minion and setting us up for more benefits next lab.
Worthy Foe
Enemies taunted by us now take increased damage, and cannot evade our minions.
First to Strike, Last to Fall
Once every 20 seconds, this node will remove ailments from you on hitting low-life. It additionally grants 10 movement speed and physical damage reduction for 20 seconds, and heals you for 25% of your life.
Bandits
Kill them all, we have a lot of pathing and cluster jewels so we want the two points.
Pantheons
- Major: Lunaris is a nice mix of defensive boosts.
- Minor: Shakari is the easiest way to get some protection from poison, Ryslatha is also a strong choice.
