So my question is: How much life regen would I need with blood rage at -18 chaos resist? I'm guessing just right around 4.5% ? Also, is this a good idea?

A level 20 Blood Rage has a 3.8% degen assuming for have no increased buff effects. 3.8*1.18 = 3.54% life regen.

Wouldn't LC be the better option in either case? It provides the possibility of more DPS while simultaneously counteracting drawbacks via its effect. When 6L'd, it allows for high level/quality gems, whereas BoR is just a cheap 7L.

On a related note, I would like to know the details of your posted 60k tooltip. Specifically, what conditions you were under when you posted that. Was that with full power and frenzy charges? With level 20 Vaal Haste?

Reason being, I can only get up to about 20k DPS on Ground Slam and 45k DPS on Glacial Hammer with my current gear and (previous, more crit-based tree, which I have since respecced to be more HP-based, so now the DPS is more like 15k and 38k or something).

EDIT: My ABSOLUTE HIGHEST DPS (6L with Ground Slam - 20/20 Increased Critical Damage - Added Fire - Melee Phys - Multistrike - PCoC) (e.g: Yes, I omitted the usual Increased AOE gem) with full power/frenzy charges and Vaal Haste up is 40k/60k. Which are rather depressingly low. What happened to "if you've got these three core items, you can hit 60k/100k dps easily"?

Also, ignore Item Quantity. That's usually 20/20 WED, I had that on for Vaal frag boss farming.

Is it just the skill tree and the gear? Or have you done something fundamentally different? Because the numbers just don't add up. It seems like this build doesn't function too well defensively until it gets all of its crit, HP, and block/dual wield dps nodes going, and it only clears non-difficult bosses (e.g: If I walk into 70 Graveyard Merveil boss, I'll be slaughtered by ice projectiles if I have so much as a second of lag).

Here is gear:

Major stats from amulet when going DPS as i have down. I was not using Lahzwar nor rainbowstrides.

I'm not sure what more you're expecting from bosses like merveil. Capped res and spell block on demand.

My weapon has higher dps and some of my gems are 21/20 or 20/23. I also have a legacy crit amulet and i have a lot of flat damage on rings. You'll be surprised how much dps you get from ambidexterity.

Also missing a lot of crit nodes, and I have a level 96 tree.

At the time, I was using a legacy crit ammy. 69% crit multi.

I had all crit nodes. I said that I respecced from crit to HP because I wasn't doing enough damage anyways, so I might as well get some tankiness. I'll definitely have to check out Ambidexterity now.

Strides should have little to do with DPS.

A lot of my problems have to do with my jewelry: namely, how I'll cover resists and still be able to change them. Swapping them for anything that would make my DPS look good will take several exalts.

Yeah, your weapon's better. But mine's easily equivalent to a high phys roll Doryani's. I'll see how it turns out with the gems.

Also, no, I don't think that 40/60k when I'm fully buffed and wearing a Tabula (with the wrong links so I get more DPS display) is good. Melee DPS is inferior to displayed DPS of several other nonmelee. And this is pretty low for a crit melee as well.
