Damage engine and purpose
FoH charges Valor and Wrath; Fires of Heaven hits controlled enemies through Fate of the Fell and Shield of Fury. Captain Crimson connects cooldown and cost stats with damage and defence.
Item, skill and rune names use their English game spelling for unambiguous lookup. Explanations, rotation and limitations are fully translated.

Legendary and normal gems
Legendary gems: Pain Enhancer / Gogok of Swiftness / Bane of the Trapped.
Normally use an Emerald in weapon sockets; choose the helm socket for cooldown or Life needs. Match armour sockets to missing main stat or toughness. Seasonal Soul Shards replace helm or weapon gems only in the explicitly identified seasons.
Stats, cooldowns and optimisation
Holy, Heaven’s Fury, CDR and Wrath costs. Add attack speed only with sustainable resources; boss Shield of Fury stacks require actual hits.
Complete the required legendary powers, correct runes and full set bonuses first. Cooldown reduction combines multiplicatively; do not simply add percentage rolls. Weigh a boss gem against a farming gem according to actual boss-fight length.
Rotation: preparation, damage, refresh
Step 1
Activate Prophet and cast FoH on targets before spending on Heaven’s Fury.
Step 2
Use Shield Glare for Bracer of Fury and fire during Holy CoE.
Step 3
Refresh Iron Skin and cost windows; keep using FoH for resources and Valor protection.
Patch boundaries and verifiable context
The contemporary final review compared each region’s top 50. It documents this Season 19 archetype; Paragon, rift fishing and Pandemonium shaped results. Copying a build guarantees no period rift tier.
A second season assignment, where present, means a still-functional 2.6.8 core. Season 20 additionally unlocks Cube categories but supplies no Pandemonium killstreak.
Check before the next equipment change
Count set pieces before replacing a free armour slot. Equipping and cubing an identical legendary power does not double it. Solo Unity requires a follower wearing the other ring with immortality equipped.
This archive describes the period configuration. A current item database may show new numbers under the same name; those live tooltips do not prove historical multipliers. Old seasonal powers cannot be replayed on current non-seasonal characters.
