About

This Shield Throw build is pushing over 800 corruption with so many positives going for it. First, as a Sentinel, we have a ton of Armor and survivability. Second, we have some fantastic damage with Shield Throw with huge Critical hits against multiple targets. Third, we have some solid support skills: Shield Rush for movement around the map, and the rest of completely automated.

Shield Bash, Symbols of Hope and Ring of Shields are all designed to trigger on their own, however, Ring of Shields can still be trigger manually for a huge boost to survivability. This mean it plays so smoothly, even in extremely high corruption. The clear speed is great and overall, the build performed amazingly well, even get Abberoth and other tough bosses.
