Saw someone mentioned that Eviscerate was fixed @ patch 2.1.3, did give Javazon another go and to update about my second thoughts,
I went with pure WDM Javazon, it's pretty sexy with Impale + Spellbind for bossing, and Eviscerate for clear.
and being pure WDM, you are highly effective with Life Leech and Mana Leech, this is great when doing bosses, was able to clear Hell Baal
Edit: Adding my char for reference, ignore the newly crafted Javelin, Baal was killed with T4 Maiden Javelin.
https://tsw.vn.cz/char/Toriahowever below are some pain points
1) When monsters comes into point blank, Eviscerate's main strength shines when all 6 javelins explodes and "shotguns" with all 6 shrapnel, when monsters gets too close, you'd most likely only hit with 1~2 javelins.
*Well git gud you may say to kill shits before they come close.
1.1) Saw someone posted about goin melee devotion and playing pure impale build, seeing that java tree is pretty point starving, pure impale melee is actually brilliant, except that it's pretty bad for clear, unless adding a small aoe to impale hits.
2) Being forced to smax shield passives to get to the next one is awkward, for example, as a javazon you naturally invest alot into dex, hence smax shieldmaiden feels like a waste, same goes for Second Wind, i'd love to be given a choice to be made, rather than forced to smax in order to get the next passives i'd drool on.
3) Overall tankiness is pretty deceptive, you survive if you blocked which is capped at 50%, there aren't much you could spend points on getting defense rating, most of the time i either block and survive via leech and high HP pool from paragon, or i dont.
in comparison hammerzon which have high amount of defense rating which nets you up to 5% chance to be hit with proper investment, and not to mention about the block rate you get from dex investment.
*still salty that they removed the max block passive from divine tree.
