✨Chaep Armour Stacker setup using Smite and Doryani's Prototype! ✨
you can use other skills but I will just show Smite for now!

This one can be started as early as day 2 in league! its my go to build for day 2-3 to farm Simulacrums! (it is expensive though... definately NOT a beginner build!)

3.28 Changes

Grafts removed.. basically just lost around 30-40% damage. We can get some back in other places but overall Big DPS loss.
Reliquarian seems fun, might be good!
New Shield Affix for Armour Applies to ele dmg.
New Shrine Belt could be OP!
Imbued Supports provide some nice utility and damage.

How it Works

TLDR

Replica Dreamfeather scales our % attack damage.
use Wrath and Smite to get flat damage. This is why we dont bother with phys>elemental conversion or matching skill damage types. i.e molten strike is a fire skill but we only scale lightning.
We will get most of our armour by converting evasion rating to armour with Iron Reflexes. Due to the way this works, flat evasion is more valuable than flat armour.
Use flasks and auras like Determination and Grace to get % More Armour and Evasion.
Since we are using lots of auras we will get lots of increased effect of non-curse auras to scale our armour, flat lightning damage and energy shield!
since we have lots of armour, we can use Aegis Aurora to recover full energy shield every time we block!
lastly we use Doryani's Prototype to reduce enemy resistances to the cap of -200!
