how did you level up this guy? did you go for wild strike at 28? or did you use something els for faster leveling?

When I made this character back in the 1MFB league, I just picked up Ethereal Knives and leveled with that till I obtained Wild Strike. I wanted to make the switch as soon as possible just so I knew how it felt pretty much throughout the entirety of the skill. The point when the skill became awesome for me was when I unlocked Multistrike towards the end of Act 4 Normal. Linking that made Wild Strike feel great. So if you must wait, wait till you get Multistrike.

If you're planning on playing during Talisman league, you can easily get a Unique Black Maw Talisman with a red socket (~1 chaos to buy) and pop a Flame Totem in it and equip it at level 10 and you should be able to breeze through most of normal (until midway through Act 4 I would say it starts falling off). That way you can start actually playing a build when you've gotten most core skill gems.

Do you have any set of awesome unique that helps speed up the lvling process untill you reach merciless where u need more resist caps, etc?

Since I don't typically buy any items pre-merciless, not really. I also have not experimented enough to know the fastest possible way to get to merciless and whatnot since the process honestly doesn't take that long anyway. The biggest hurdle should be normal difficulty because you have pretty much nothing linked aside from a few things. I always find cruel to be a breeze and it should take easily less than 10 hours to get through it if you don't play super slowly. I typically get through an entire difficulty throughout a day (not playing non-stop, but a decent amount) and I do every single quest (yes that includes optional). So I can imagine someone who knows what they're doing and skips optional passive respec quests and whatnot can get through extremely fast.

Any unique body armour that would work well with this build? Love the build BTW, really good guide =)

If you're good on resists from everything else, there are a handful of unique body armors I can think of.

The absolute best would obviously be Lightning Coil. That gives insane amounts of survivability.
Hyrri's Ire offers a crap ton of evasion along with extra dodge and spell dodge which is broken with Vaal Grace alone as is.
Voll's Protector would allow you to change up the curse within your Curse on Hit setup to something else like Elemental Weakness or something.
Belly of the Beast provides a lot of extra life.
Daresso's Defiance will allow you to let go of Enduring Cry (which you won't really be able to replace with much anyway, but it's an option) while giving a nice little bonus of getting Onslaught every now and then with some extra dodge.

Those are the main ones I would consider. Keep in mind these options are all somewhat expensive if you want a 5/6L (it's usually around 1 exalted orb for a 5L unique body armor from what I've seen around).

hey man nice build. but how is this "super budget" ? should also try to help newer players, and thats definitely no budget build at all for quite new players, who are actually the ones who are looking for those budget builds.

Honestly, it was a lot cheaper during the league that this was created in. Unfortunately with new leagues and changes to the game, item prices change drastically sometimes. It's just the nature of the game. The most expensive thing in this build are the boots (started of around 1 ex and look to be about 30c now probably, not too sure). I'm almost certain you can get a full set of sufficient gear (minus Blood Dance) for less than 40c which is less than half an exalt currently in TSC. I would personally say that amount of currency is relatively easy to attain with chaos recipes alone (most builds I see always have several exalts worth of gear). If you are a trader, then it will be even easier. And I found most of my stuff when I played the character until it moved to standard (haven't touched the character much since).

I haven't played in ages and looking to come back to the game with the expansion.

The thing I can't understand is where you get the life leach from for the Blood magic.

Cheers,

If you are going to run a Cast When Damage Taken setup with Warlord's Mark, then that's what it would be from. Otherwise you're just running off life regen which there is plenty of in the passive tree. And if you have Bino's it gives a huge burst of life regen per kill. And whenever you cast enduring cry, you get a little bit of life regen as well. The Blood Dance used to give a lot of regen as well with frenzy charges but they nerfed that portion of it a bit so it's less effective. But I can easily spam all of my skills in my hideout without running out of life since the natural regen is already plenty enough.

Any plans to update this for 2.2?

I'm mostly interested in the skill tree which is unavailable in your link now :(
