Theorycraft: Spectral Shield Throw Juggernaut - Path of Exile 3.2: SC SSF Bestiary League

Path of Exile 3.2: Bestiary League adds a monster hunter / pokemon element to the game where we hunt monsters all across Wraeclast. We also got an extensive overhaul of the Ascendancies and three new skill gems. This series will explore what a Juggernaut can do with the new Spectral Shield Throw skill. Because the skill is difficult to support via the skill tree, we have more skills than usual left over to bolster our defenses. On the naturally tanky Juggernaut this could prove to be pretty darn sturdy. I'll play this one in the standard version of the temporary league, but I'll be playing solo self-found (by the way). The reason is simple: I don't enjoy the trading experience in the game, so I might as well remove the expectation that I will trade.

*Skills*

Spectral Shield Throw should be in a 4 or 5 link (or a 6 link if you can get one). Shield Charge in your main hand due to some items granting useful support gems to socketed skills. Shaper/Elder items could potentially fulfill this role too once you hit maps, but I'm not counting on it. There's a lot of blind and maim support in this build to make enemies more likely to not hit me and thus make my life regen and leech more effective at keeping me alive.
