Dear exiles, MmoGah will share a Very tanky and fast starter build: Juggernaut Boneshatter. This build has 3.3M DPS with 5L setup, 4.4k Life, 85k Armour, Fortify, 2-3k life regen in battle, high hit pool and max hit taken, immune to freeze, chill, temp chains. It is easy to level and map, has high potential, up to 50-80M DPS with top gear.
This build was buffed in 3.23 - quality now gives 1% more dmg per Trauma, so it's ~10% more DPS than previously. I didn't use alt-quality gems and helmet/boot enchants, so there are no nerfs.
Budget
1 Divine Orb. Most items were picked from the ground or rolled with alts and regal orbs.

Leveling
For leveling, we can use molten strike or splitting steel with 2h axe or sword with good phys DPS: all other gear-just Life and res, movement in boots.
We can swap to Boneshatter at level 28-35 after the first lab when we take the untiring passive, which grants us life regen from Boneshatter self-dmg, or we can use splitting steel up to level 50-60.
Conclusion
10% more DPS for this build in 3.23 from the new quality of Boneshatter. Also, Boneshatter of Complex Trauma looks interesting. It has a maximum of 10 Trauma only, but 20% more dmg per Trauma compared to 5% on normal Boneshatter. I can stack up to 20-21 Trauma on bosses, so it's 100% more dmg, but from 10 Trauma on a transfigured gem, it will be 200% more dmg. On the other hand, it has a downside: we lose all Trauma on reaching 10 Trauma and need to stack them again. I Hope this build will help you a lot.
