Build Overview

Shattershard Elementalist has been one of the craziest builds I have played this league! This build utilizes The Dark Monarch (Summoned Golems) to create a huge golem army! This golem army + a wide variety of heralds allows this builds damage to scale insanely high! On top of that we get to use our Shield Charge not only as a movement skill but the main source to trigger all of our damage!

The idea behind this build is we will be using a shield called Shattershard to proc its on block ability "Shield Shatter". We get to do this using a new item called "The Monestary Bell" (this is currently bugged on mobalytics and not showing!). This item allows the following "Count as blocking attack Damage from the First Target hit with each shield attack"

So essentially every time we Shield Charge we count as blocking and because of that we get to trigger Shattershard and blow up the screen!

I forgot to mentioned flask in the video my apologies! We are using the following:

1) Atziri's Promise for MORE DAMAGE AND LEECH
2) Oriath's End FOR MORE EXPLOSIONS and Resistances
3) Divine Life Flask with Corrupted blood and Bleeding
4) Quicksilver Flask for movement speed and and more movement speed
5) Granite Flask for Armor and more Armor!

Note too in the video there are 2 Primordial Eminence and 1 The Light of Meaning (Cold Damage) - If these are expensive to buy corrupted the non corrupted varaints are very cheap and easy to chain corrupt. I for example bought primordial jewels and chain corrupted the Primordial Eminence until they hit what I needed

Here is a guide to how I leveled this character - https://mobalytics.gg/poe/builds/power-siphon-mines

The weapon slot is "The Monestary Bell" this is currently bugged on mobalytics and not showing! This item allows the following "Count as blocking attack Damage from the First Target hit with each shield attack" this allows us to use Shattershard and always have the explosions up!

The missing ring is "Lost Unity" this is the new unique ring from breach that allows us to scale our herald affects to the moon.


On the ring just get any good roll and on the weapon we only care about the increased attack speed. Nothing else matters! You can get a good corrupted one with Fortify and Area of Effect but its not needed.
