Anyone have a chance to play around with bladefall yet?

That's what I'm using atm. Very good, not sure if better than EK.

Thank you :)

been trying blasphemy + warlord mark and a herald instead of hatred, loving the sustain and I'm using blood rage for frenzy charges since I still don't have the boots.

Day 1 Thoughts:

Bladefall does insane amounts of damage. WAY more than EK. Far more clunky, but used right it has a LOT of potential.

Blasphemy works great if you're an AoE Caster anyway, probably even better once I get a Carcass Jack. Only starts working well once the gems level a bit, even with AoE passives, though.

I get the feeling I'd be much better off with a Clarity as well, but no room on mana as of yet, will need a low-level Clarity + Rallying Cry + Enlighten gems. It's a bit hard to depends on Mana Leech alone vs Bosses (Mana Flasks!), but otherwise it works out great.

CwDT + Frost Wall, obviously.
-
Level: 65
Life: ~3400
Tooltip: 21-25K (depends on Frenzy Charges), actual DPS about x2
Auras: Blashpemy (War Mark), Hatred

All the rest of my tree is Life, Jewels or Frenzy Charges. If this were HC, I'd have taken a BIT more Life already.

Hey Cantrip, great guide!
I was wondering, since you said you were using frost wall + CWDT, which one of your original link setups you ditched in favor of the frost wall.
Secondly, since people dont seem to be a huge fan of the range on blasphemy, would you recommend only using the warlords mark blasphemy setup for bladefall?

I don't have all the links set-up yet, will think about it. It looks like CwDT + War Mark is still needed, anyway, so the Golem+LW will have to go. As for Blasphemy, I recommend you try it out and decide yourself, I think it depends on playstyle.

well,as i experinced it for a few days...
it's very hard to cap resists with tabula and u need high +life and u r not immune to stun or/and freeze....that kinda sucks.
not sure it's a good thing to have hatred and add fire damage togather if u could make it a build with more freeze/chill chance,it could be better.
