Hello all, this is my first build post so please take it easy on me. I really wanted to do something with the new shield, Maljwndanwdkawd Machination, and Doryani's Prototype. This is what I came up with after getting some inspiration from Mathil's video on DP during Harvest. I was able to more than double his damage, give us super high max res, near dodge and block cap, among other things. I would love to hear feedback on this build.

Corrupt T16 Trial - Note that I only have cheap rares and Malachai's Artifice rings with -155% lightning resistance and 3k life. I'm saving for the end-game version of this build, but I think it still shows how strong Block/Evasion is with Fortify.
Note: I understand this build is expensive and specific, so I've include a MUCH more accessible dual Mjolnir build until you're able to switch over; though the damage increase once you do is insane.
>Pros:
-Can run Physical Reflect as we ONLY deaal lightning damage
-Large AoE clear via Arc
-Huge amounts of elemental defense
-Dodge and Block-Bosses can't resist you (;
-EB takes care of our mana once we start leeching
-Hugely over-capped resistances and lots of defensive layers
-Flat Lightning Damage scales hard; which we why we run Wrath and Herald of Thunder. Level 21 gems and a +1/2 amulet would be a large damage boost.
Cons:
-Lightning degen and Physical Damage; also Shocked ground
-Can't run Elemental Reflect maps, unless you're Frane Selak
-Expensive (lots of required uniques, attribute requirements, necessary resistance thresholds to hit, and accuracy). I can't stress this enough, it's very expensive--specifically the survivability via high life rolls with the other rolls you need on Rares.
-No regen, but you do RECHARGE life
-You need a lot of strength and it's hard to get with this build; anoint Utmost Might instead of Steel Commander for an easier time and use a %str belt instead of Immortal Flesh.-Can only do lightning damage
-Accuracy is an abolute must. Keep your accuracy above at least 90% on evasive monsters or feel the pain
-Can have low boss DPS due to low-ish attack speed and crit-rate
We also have 4 major defensive layers in this build:
- Our resistances are as follows: 89% fire (assuming you are converting Lightning to Fire via Talisman), 85% cold, -199% lightnin
The funeral director was asking us what we think Mum should wear in her casket.
Mum always loved to wear sarongs (fabric wraps that go around the torso and drape downward a bit like a long skirt would), so my uncle suggested that she wear a sarong in there.
The funeral director looked a bit confused, as did some of our family members, to which my uncle added:
"What's sarong with that?"
I started laughing like an idiot. He was proud of it too. The funeral director was rather shocked. We assured her, and our more proper relatives, that Mum would've absolutely loved the joke (which is very true).
His delivery was perfect. I'll never forget the risk he took. We sometimes recall the moment as a way help cushion the blows of the grieving process.
--Edit-- I appreciate the condolences. I'm doing well and the worst is behind me and my family. But thanks :)
--Edit-- Massive thanks for all the awards and kind words. And the puns! Love 'em.
I would have a daughter

True story; it even happened last night. My 5-year-old son walks up behind me and out of the blue says, "hey."
I turn to him and say, "yeah, kiddo? What's up?"
He responds, "it's dead grass."
I'm really confused and trying to figure out what's wrong and what he wants from me. "What? There's dead grass? What's wrong with that?"

He says, totally straight-faced, "hay is dead grass," and runs off.
You officially hit rock bottom
And then you will all be sorry.
Now it’s syncing.
He replied, "Well, stop going to those places then!"
I will find you. You have my Word.
She said how do you know he was headed to work?
“thank you for your cervix.”
...sails are going through the roof.
Made me smile
Mods said I'm a cereal reposter...

But now I stand corrected.
Wait. Sorry, wrong sub.
Wookie mistake.
Theoretical Fizz-ics
Because you can’t ‘C’ in the dark
I said, “That makes two of us.”
so I had to ground him.
He's doing better currently.
And conducting himself properly.

Me: Can we change the subject?
My wife: Okay. More chores around the house need to be done by you.
