(2.6) Demopolos' Ultimate Facebreaker: 6L Shield Charge (500k) or Cyclone (1.4m) w/ 4L Warchief

First off, I would like to say that I am having a blast with this build. It is so much fun to use, especially with Shield Charge going the speed of sound everywhere. However, I am at the point where I am looking for some advice.

I currently am level 81, and recently was lucky enough to drop a Carcass Jack (yay). I know that the Carcass Jack is one of the OP's suggested end-game armors, due to its boost in AoE and area damage. My conundrum lies in whether or not I should use this Carcass Jack for Cyclone or Shield Charge.

My end goal is to have two 6-link armors on swap, one for Shield Charge and one for Cyclone, similar to what the OP has for his build. My current 6-link shield charge armor is a Tabula Rasa, and this is what I use for general map clearing, while having Concentrated Effect on swap for bosses.

I intend to replace my Tabula Rasa with a better end-game armor once I'm not being drained of fusings, as I have yet to 6-link my Carcass Jack, and probably will not for quite some time, and once I'm not too poor to outright buy 6-link armors. However, in the hypothetical situation where I have a 6-link Carcass Jack, I believe that using Carcass for Cyclone would work best, as Cyclone is, according to the OP, much better for tackling bosses, and Carcass would only amplify this boss-killing power. I do not think that having that additional AoE power would be as useful (I am not saying that it isn't useful) for Shield Charge's general map clearing compared to Cyclone's boss-killing potential.

I would like some additional insight into this situation, as I could very well be wrong and am missing some part of the bigger picture. Any advice would be appreciated!

Hey man, your build looks awesome! i'll definitely try it :)
Can you explain how do you level up? (skills, with or without facebreaker)
Thank you for share your build!

Get gear upgrades in the following order (unless you find a particularly good deal on something):
-Meginord's belt >
-Wanderlust boots >
-Facebreaker >
-2 rare rings with as high physical damage as you can find >
-rare ammy with as high physical damage as you can find >
-deep one's hide shield >
-tabula rasa (div cards can make this cheaper) >
-rare jewel with mana leech and 1+ other useful mods >
-abyssus >
-rare boots with 30 ms and life/res >
-Jewels with 3+ useful mods per this guide >
-6L astral plate (can use div cards to make it cheaper) >
-Good rare shield >
-steel rings with t1 phys >
-Incrementally upgrade moving towards the ideal gear I linked here in guide...

General tips:
-Try to get all the gems/links as fast as you can once you meet the level req... don't forget to grab ancestral warchief ASAP as it makes mince meat of of bosses that can be slower with only SC.
-Make sure you get every passive quest reward and your bandits as early as you can, it will give you a boost vs content
-Don't forget to use vendor recipe to turn your lvl 20 gems into lvl 1 / 20 q gems as you level. The quality is really important!
-Once you have cleared merciless, farm dried lake until level 75-76, then start spamming maps. Make sure to get every clear you can ASAP to fill out atlas and make map pool sustainable. Profit! :D

But i would love some in depth tips (sorry if i'm asking too much)

Bye!

Thoughts on Red Nightmare in this? Would go in the left-most Marauder spot.

Hi there and thx for a great spec i really love it :)
But how can u get so high dps ?. Atm im lvl 87 and when i stand i my HQ with ash,flame golem and Hatred my dps is 9.900 ? Thx again for a great spec :)

Just did a price search and the cheapest steel rings are like 50chaos each in standard?! Is that correct? Or am i seeing things?

Are they worth buying if i only have about 100chaos and 5 exalts in currency?

Are these rings good enough?

Some spares:
Need some tips on what items to buy next.
Here are the rest of my gears



And a 5l belly of beast. How much are 6L decent stat rares going for in standard now?

You should upgrade your lower level jewelry, it's the source of a lot of our damage.

My gear so far, trying to get to level 80 so I can upgrade the rings. Would love any upgrade/gear advice.

Thanks!
