Terek has been playing Last Epoch consistently since 2020, along with streaming and creating videos on YouTube. He fell in love with Last Epoch after putting too many hours into PoE and D3, so much so that he decided to speedrun it! He has been consistently pushing boundaries of what is possible in Last Epoch through his speedruns and has established most of the leveling strategies used today. Introduction
This Forge Guard leveling build decimates its opponents by proccing a devastating Physical AoE from its Manifest Armor. It revolves around Shield Throw proccing Manifest Armor sweeping melee attacks when hit. By specializing into Manifest Armor your minion will take into account any stats from your gear, making your weapon very important for the build.
This Forge Guard lets his minion take the aggro for him while proccing its ability from afar. Javelin is a well rounded tool that heals, gives armor and damage when inside its AoE. The build also has two other abilities that boost your damage when needed with Sigils Of Hope and Void Cleave.
Overall this Manifest Armor Forge Guard is an amazing leveling build, it provides enough damage to one shot most monsters in the campaign and scale really well into end game. It is also a good defensive build with great recovery through Javelin and a lot of space on the gear for defensive stats.
