Even now way after of the PoF launch this build remains a very strong and solid build. If taking shake it off istead of endure pain and mending istead of the signet to compensate the condi cleanse lack of this build. Maybe this build doesn't have the perma 20 stacks of might but it's ability to chain ccs and super high dps via the primal bursts, it's able to pump off crazy damage. This build remains a very strong option to play. I run mending, shake it off and bullcharge whit eternal champion, and blood reaction. And it works very well even vs high rank players(plat3). This build is great
