In the last league I finally gave the new Templar a try (after a very long time) and I enjoyed my bow inquisitor a lot.

In this season I started with a ice spear inquisitor, which I will make the build guide for, later (its not up to build guide standards ;)). But as im getting close to wrapping him off, I started to think about a different build.

I found a ice crash crit build made by hitma47, He has a video melting bosses like there is no tomorrow, really impressing, you can find the build here:

as I wanted to do another ice crash build I though, why not make a facebreaker one, theme wise its really fitting, as the skill use the fist smash into the ground. So I started theory craft the build.

Here is where I'm now with it.

Lets start with the basics, the tree:

made in poe planner (you can see, the level of char and exact stats)

I have not taken vaal pact as the idea behind it is to generate consecrated ground that will boost my damage, attack speed and life regen. The tree can be easily adapted to vaal pact, by dropping the life regen nodes, and pathing down to VP instead.

Bandits:

Oak - Oak - power charge



the core items:

there are two:





(sorry only had one in std)



And







there are two:(sorry only had one in std)And



optional but very useful Uniques:

Spoiler



(please ignore the gems, as i only have this chest in std now on my eq char)

is a really nice chest, that give life, all res, some life and mana on kill, and easy way to get sockets colors you want. Downside is that it can be expensive





(please ignore the gems)

not much to say here, we all know how good this helm can be for melee crit builds.





is another great helm, giving ton of attack speed, movement speed and chaos res a bonus





as we do not invest in block nodes on the tree, this shield is really good for offensive purposes with flat phys and attack speed, its hard to find anything better. Of course a good rare shield with life and res, can make your life so much easier, but on the flip side you loose a fair bit of damage

the gems:

Spoiler

Ice Crash - Faster Attacks - fortify - Melee phys Damage - Physical to lightning - Increase aoe/conc aoe (swap for bosses)



this provides a 100% phys conversion 50% lightning and 50% cold - which I feel will allow us to get the most out of the inquisitor route



shield charge - power charge on crit - faster attacks - blood magic (this is out movement skill, which also doubles as pc generator). If mana would not be a problem I will swap BM for increase crit chance or fortify.



cwdt (lvl 7/8) - immortal call - increase duration - blood rage (max lvl, self cast)



blasphemy - warlords mark (this is our only leech source)



determination or hatred - depending on how I will feel my char is doing, I may swap from defensive aura to offensive one.





gear:

a part from the items I mentioned, this build (excl the mandatory 2 uniques) can be done with just rare items. you want life and res on your armor.

ideally you would be looking for diamond base rings, with flat phys, attack speed, life and 2 resistances or all res roll.

On amulet you would ideally want - crit chance and crit multi, flat phys, life and increase %armor roll.



of course accuracy on jewelry would be a bonus as well as on gear to help you actually hit things ;)



I will be making this later on in a league. but would love to hear what you guys think.

What could be improved, what could be changed, are there any other better pathing routes i could take?



thanks as always for your constructive feedback
