This guide will require you with the steps to Bonk everything and whatever you come across. Boneshatter isn't the fastest build, but it's sturdy also it smacks things using its big stick.
It is among the very few viable “true melee” builds left hanging around, and Juggernaut is a natural fit for Boneshatter as Juggernaut turns into a very tanky boy using Boneshatter’s innate infinite scaling.
There will also be Slayer versions of Boneshatter which will deal more damage. However, I prefer not to die, even when it takes me a little longer to bonk the one thing I am bonking to death.

Playstyle and Build Mechanics
Boneshatter Boneshatter has built-in near-infinite scaling of harm, provided we now have enough attack speed. This does however comes at the cost of people hitting ourselves increasingly hard once we build more stacks of Trauma. We can sustain this punishment once we abuse the innate tankiness supplied by our Ascendancy to out-regen the harm we are doing to ourselves with the Ascendancy node Untiring. The harder we hit ourselves, the greater we regen.
Other than that, we stack some impale chance, grab a reasonable bit of armor, and visit the town.
We further abuse the self-harm inflicted on ourselves with the node _ Inorexible _ to construct endurance charges and them up permanently.
Leveling

From then onwards, we'll be waking things hard with our big stick.
