Introduction
The Roland's Legacy set unlocks the potential of two signature Crusader
abilities — 
Sweep Attack and 
Shield Bash — both by
boosting their damage and adding cooldown reduction utility to their use. The
guide below will focus on the Sweep Attack build option; this
control-heavy, sustain damage build is designed with Greater Rift solo progression
in mind, but we also have a speed farming variant, which can be accessed using the link below.
