So, I went against the grain and said I wanted Brandish, but man o man it's been a weird trip to T12. As it is, I am currently jam stuck in T11, I have the damage, but most things 1 shot me, and what doesnt makes me slowly trickle to death (not very fun).

I include the build planner I have, and hopefully I can get some ideas on survivability?

Note: I have seen that some people run Angelic Masterwork over Indomitable, would that make sense even if I am running Shield Bearer?

And I suppose its fair to ask, is Shield Bearer, and by extension redirected force even worth it? from what I can tell, block chance is pretty rough (noticeable since Im actively buffing it up via Aegis).

Anywho, I'll take any advice on what to do. Gotten pretty far, but I think with some survivability I can almost catch up to hammer.

Im currently rocking Wing Strike but legitimately falling asleep at having to walk around and not really do much.

Has anyone had any success with Divine Lance or Brandish? Im at T8 attempting to find a way to transition builds but I do want to stay in the vicinity of Arbiter.

All I see in the leaderboards is either wing strike, hammerdin or auradin, or a combination of the three. Im wondering if anyone has had any success with off meta builds in higher tiers?
