Goliath + Heavy Hitter

Heavy Hitter causes basic attacks to deal bonus physical damage equal to 3.5% of your maximum health. Goliath's 35% bonus health directly amplifies this on-hit damage, creating a simple but powerful synergy for attack-based tanks. Your increased size also improves melee reach for consistent damage application.

Avoid Goliath + Giant Slayer

Giant Slayer reduces your size by 75% and grants bonus damage against larger enemies, while Goliath increases your size by 50%. This directly conflicts with Giant Slayer's core mechanic, as you become a larger target and lose the damage bonus against most opponents who will now be smaller than you.

Avoid Goliath + Shrink Engine

Avoid Goliath + Glass Cannon

Glass Cannon caps your health at 70% of maximum health, which severely undermines Goliath's 35% bonus health grant. The health threshold restriction means the bonus health from Goliath provides no survivability benefit, wasting one of its three primary effects entirely.

Avoid Goliath + Celestial Body

Common Mistakes

Goliath

Augments

Goliath: Don't give to damage dealers: reduced movement speed prevents you from dealing damage and escaping. Don't ignore increased hit range: skills easier to hit enemies. Don't forget to build movement speed items: counter the movement speed penalty. Note team role: tank's job is to absorb damage, not deal damage.
