[2.1] Amazing Crit Reave Dagger - Life/Ev/Dodge - DPS/Survivability 800k DPS/5.8k Life - In Depth

Sorry for double post, but I wanted to address some of the criticisms I see in this thread from my own perspective.

This is a melee/short range build. That doesn't mean however, that all you do is facetank mindlessly and hope. In endgame content you are going to get hit and its going to drain a huge chunk of your hps. Capped resists, great defense, whatever , damage will get through occasionally. Be mobile.. You can kite with this build just like a bow build, especially with the Spec Throw setup he has.

I play as my main a crappy CoC Cycloner. First character and he's bleh. 5L , no special gear except a Rat's Nest. 3.8khps, that's it. I double curse and run Enfeeble for some extra help, but I'm squishy. A Cycloner is pure melee, I can't do *anything* at range, but I take him in to t10-12 maps regularly and do well because I'm careful. I pay attention and am always ready to run, heal and reapproach, I swap skills and change my approach on specific situations. Nothing drastic, but this has let me take my very poor and mostly crappily geared little Cycloner in to and through content he shouldn't really be clearing.

Sure some builds handle things differently, but they are different builds.. That's the point... And really, I don't know that I've seen any endgame builds that DONT swap, move, run and generally leverage any and all possible. Options for advantage.

I just get the feeling some people.want to hold down Reave and auto-win *all* content and no.build does that that I'm aware of.

First of all thanks for this guide FortyFive, atm i'm trying to gatering the gear do this build, but i'm would like to have a leveling tree (20, 40, 80 , 100 something like this), this sure would help me a lot!

Thanks !

Hey, would it be better to add faster attack with reave? I'd test but im too poor to re colour my armor lol.

DONE

Rough Guide though, choose life or damage based on current gear and or need! Do not follow Exactly, I highly recommend planning your moves based on your situation and achieving the final tree as you get up to 90+. Example would be taking the DOT regen nodes in the shadow tree until you get down to the duelist area.

Cheers

Id prefer questions are asked on the forum so that other users can get help from them as well. Im also limited on in game time at the moment with work and school. I will keep adding common questions to the FAQ so that others can easily see them!

Added a video of my life pool, blood rage degen, and life regeneration at current spec from a question asked on the ranger thread of this build.

Heads up to all of you that have created a build using this guide, or those of you following the thread. I will be updating both my current Reave build, and this guide ASAP when ascendancy becomes official.

Cheers

Very good guide, will upgrade it to new expansion?

What ascendancy class plan to take?
