Judgment is used to activate Bracer of Fury bonus damage.Fissure is used as both fissures and lightning arcs provide Wrath each time they deal damage, making it unnecessary to cast Fist of the Heavens too often. Fist of the Heavens Fissure is necessary to activate Aegis of Valor (2 and 4 ) Bonus.Heaven's Fury Fires of Heaven is the main source of damage, thanks to Aegis of Valor (4 ) Bonus we can spam this skill despite its heavy Wrath cost.Ring of Royal Grandeur ( A1 Bounties, Cubed)

Despite not competing in terms of raw damage output, AoV FotH Crusader really shines in lower speedfarming content such as Nephalem Rifts, Bounties and Speed Greater Rifts, where Heaven's Fury is not so good due to its small AoE and overall clunkiness.

Apart from Heaven's Fury, the set also increases damage of Fist of the Heavens (FotH). This is an Area Damage (AD) build when using Norvald's Fervor setup, since selfcast Heaven's Fury can proc it, while other setups are not as Shield of Fury does not interact with it and Ivory Tower casts cannot proc it either (see Mechanics). The raw power of the set itself also makes it very easy to get into higher difficulties straight away, even before the full build is completed. However the build still stands as one of the strongest Rift Guardian Killers and one of the strongest solo builds across all classes. Since then the build was nerfed in 5 separate occasions each time roughly halving the power of the setup, with the addition of a cap to Shield of Fury stacks then a nerf to it, the prevention of animation canceling, the nerf to Ivory Tower and finally the nerf to the (2 ) Bonus stacks to be additive instead of multiplicative with themselves. The highest Greater Rift tier-150-was cleared solo for the first time using AoV Heaven's Fury (HF) Crusader build. Featuring some impressive numbers- 20,000% increased damage, as well as the only stacking buff in the game that was stacking multiplicatively with itself-this set brought about a new era in the world of Diablo III power creep. Aegis of Valor ( AoV) is the latest Crusader set to be introduced into the game with Season 19.
