I’m starting to become much less casual of a player, and would love to hear how I can improve on this build.

Really digging sword/torch, would like to stick with these weapons.

Right hand strength wont show on your character sheet, so you actually have 52% crit chance, before fury. 3k armor and 15k health, combined with all the blocks and blinds you can put out, as well as a 2k heal on every meditation use, (the shortest one being 16sec, best used as another big damager with a condition on you) make this a very survivable build. Remember to use the shield on focus not for defense, but for offense. When it explodes, it can do upwards of 7k on glassies. Im not sure if you know, but you wanna precast it before a fight, and a split second before it explodes cast the immob on scepter and JI. Nearly half their health will be gone, and they’ll be immobilized.
