Explosive Arrow Marauder (Updated for Release)

This node looks reachable: http://i.imgur.com/npTbMJw.jpg
Southeast of the tree? Not really reachable...
it is only two nodes from Pastromys build on the first page
I was really excited for DoT passives, but that one seems pretty lame.

Chances are I will spec for it simply due to the 1% life regen.
if anyone needs a 6L quill rain on nemesis hit me up. I have the cheapest one for sale.

I am broke, used over 500 fusings and 200 chromatics on this. So if someone would buy it would really help me out cause I can't do anything in the game atm..

If an item is verified, it is still for sale :)
If I am offline and you have a ?, send me a PM and I will get back to you ASAP, thank you.
I hope they add more than two DoT clusters and give out a respec.
I have some questions, mainly for a better understanding:

1. Improved projectile damage increases explosion damage and thus the burning too, right?
2. Weapon elemental damage does NOT affect explosion or burning, right?
3. Would you consider getting the Iron Grip Keystone a good idea? After all, the build has LOTS of strength. Also can you confirm or deny that Iron Grip now affects Explosive Arrow explosion damage? That'd be pretty awesome and should more than make up for the loss in burning damage through 1.0.2.
4. What would you consider a good snapshot of talents at level 50? I notice leveling becomes very slow from around 50 onwards so all the important stuff you need for Merciless should be there before ~55, right? Like EE, Burning Damage bonuses and stuff?

Thanks in advance :)

3. No, it doesnt increase explosion damage.
4. I started playing explo when i got 4l quill, thats around 40lvl and +1 curse ring, leveleng was super easy.

You can also use Explosive arrow with LMP early. Clears packs faster than your still little burning damage. Bosses take long to kill if they dont have any enemies with them though.
BLOWING MYSELF UP!

I've done it twice. I don't really pay attention to what rare monsters have as there list of crap they can do to me, but obviously it must be some kind of reflect because I have single shot myself twice now in Domination league when I toss out my 5 EA's, Flammability, and split arrow with added cold damage on it to trigger EE.

I only have 4k life at the moment which could be the problem.

I really have to pay better attention, since if I was on Nemesis league I'd be RIP.

EDIT!

I just did it again. I was farming Merevil and one rare mob, and boom I was dead. Just warning people to be careful!
