Build Summary
Concussive Stomp Endgame Build
	Focus: Endgame, Torment Pushing
Very High Survivability Great Boss Killer Low Mobility

This build makes use of the Reinforced Concussive Stomp damage buff and spamming it with Crushing Hand using Ring of the Midnight Sun to maintain your Vigor and reach up to 4000% Critical Strike Damage with the Aspect of Redirected Force. Having the Gorilla as both your primary and secondary Spirit Hall specialization will give you better survivability, and increase your stacks on Resolve.

The combination of Ravager and Armored Hide makes this build an offensive tank that can increase its damage based on your Resolve stacks. We recommend this build for those who are reaching endgame as higher Torment difficulties require more defensive stats.

Concussive Stomp Build Spirit Hall

Primary Spirit
Gorilla (Level 15) Casting a Gorilla Skill deals 100% Thorns to enemies you hit and grants a Barrier for 10% of Maximum Life (X), up to 40%, for 3 seconds. All Skills are now also Gorilla Skills.
Secondary Spirit
Gorilla (Level 30) Maximum Resolve is increased by 2. When you have at least 5 stacks of Resolve, you are Unstoppable.

Gorilla is the best specialization for the Primary and Secondary slot in this Concussive Stomp build since it gives you access to increased Resolve and Barriers, which increase block chance and critical strike damage, respectively.

Concussive Stomp Build Gems

Weapon/Armor	Amulet	Rings
Emerald	Skull	Diamond

For Gems, it's best to slot in Emerald on your weapon slot for more Critical Strike Damage and Dexterity from your armor slots, a Skull Gem on your amulet slot for more Armor, and Diamond on your ring slots to get more Elemental Resistance.

Diamonds can be replaced with other gems depending on which resistances you need to get 70% or close across the board.

Concussive Stomp Build Runewords

Runeword 1	Runeword 2
Poc Gar	Zan Kry

The best runewords for the Concussive Stomp build are Poc + Gar to consistantly grant yourself more Critical Strike Chance, and Zan + Kry to use Vortex whenever you cast your Ultimate twice for some good crowd control.

Make sure to equip these on your Head and Chest Armor as both of these can have 2 gem sockets that are perfect for slotting in Runewords.

Paragon Boards
1. Starting Board (Spirit)
2. Sapping (Headhunter)
3. Viscous Shield (Revenge)
4. In-Fighter (Fitness)
5. Convergence (Colossal)

For Glyphs, your best ones would be Spirit and Fitness, for massively increasing your Critical Strike Damage to keep up in higher Torment difficulties.

We also recommend prioritizing getting the Viscous Shield and Sapping Legendary nodes as these will increase your damage significantly.

The Concussive Stomp Build playstyle focuses on deal large amounts of critical strike damage while having high defense and barriers to survive. The rotation is as follows:

1. Use Crushing Hand 3 times to lower the cooldowns of your skills every time.
2. Activate Ravager for the damage buff, then cast The Seeker so you can activate Ravager again.
3. Use Armored Hide whenever your Resolve stacks are getting low.
4. Cast Concussive Stomp then The Seeker so you can recast Concussive Stomp up to 3 times for free.
