Build Variants
Early on i recommend using
Rolling Slam +
Boneshatter combo, with
Perfect Strike or even
Mace Strike against bosses. This will carry you until level 22 when you can swap to
Shield Wall
After the swap the most important piece of equipment is going to be your shield. You want to get as much armour on your shield as possible, this is where you damage comes from.
When it comes to other equipment, you simply want as much armour, life and resistances as possible. Movement speed on boots is also very important.
When it comes to weapon there is only 1 stat that will be useful to us, which is + to melee skills. Other stats are mostly irrelevant

How it Plays
The gameplay loop is incredibly simple
You want to use
Shield Wall and explode it with
Ferocious Roar
Against bosses make sure to use
Ferocious Roar few times to generate rage and endurance charges
Use
Pounce for mobility and mana + life leech against bosses.
How it Works
To generate endurance charges that will guarantee a crit with
Nebuloch, we need to use
Ferocious Roar with
Infernal Cry, Raging Cry and Enraged Warcry II socketed in it while having
Roaring Cries allocated
Every time you spend 15 rage in bear form you receive an endurance charge. Raging Cry gives us rage every time we warcry, while Enraged Warcry II spends rage to generate endurance charges. This create a loop where as long as you are next to enemies or a boss, you will be able to continuously use
Ferocious Roar to generate rage and endurance charges. Armour Break III socketed in
Shield Wall will generate even more while mapping while also breaking armour of enemies, giving us permanent 40% more armour from
Scavenged Plating

Comments
4What aspects mods do you get on mageblood and loreweave?
Ive been following the build as closely as possible but I'm having a cooldown issue where I cant continuously cast ferocious roar without a cool down.
Make sure to use it next to the enemies, this way you will be able to generate enough rage
And very important, setup your weapons sets properly if you haven't done so yet
