[2.3] Hegemony's Era & Voidheart Crit Earthquake Assassin
Hey guys, this is the build summary for my crit earthquake I'm currently leveling.
I'll update the guide as I progress and find out the weaknesses and where it excels. I'm just posting this for friends that were curious. I will record some gameplay videos and fill the thread with more info soon. I will probably push this character to level 90 and move on to another build.

Leveling
Leveling was super easy, I just used physical weapons like Last Resort, Screaming eagle then switched to any 2H with superior dps at level 28 I switched to Stormheart and it carried me till level 40s it was actually still doing good but there's this one thing that I almost gave up on Hegemony's era and crit altogether: What the hell were they thinking, it may look 240 dps on paper but that 70 fire mod is just insane... with culling strike this is equivalent to a 400-450dps 2h at level 40! For mana issues I've used Elreon jewelry then switched to Thief's Torment. Skillwise, I've used Spectral Throw and Molten Strike together till Earthquake was available.
Leveling Uniques
Go Blood Siphon from phys start and get Fangs of the Viper via Will of the Blades, you can get Nullification and Blood drinker to feel more safe but I went to witch zone straight away. Ignore every staff and crit node till you are level 60 or so. But make sure you have them by 68(Hegemony's Era). Go pick templar area nodes and get 14% life from scion life nodes, you should be level 68-70 by now and ready to roll.

" I know but I've said: " in gem section. Also, I'm not really a fan of that amulet. I'd rather wear a rare amulet. Torment Shop : http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1121704 Last edited by ta3boo#2204 on Jun 13, 2016, 1:03:50 PM

Look forward to seeing your progress, Voidheart alone looks super powerful.

Level 82 Update
Well, I don't really want to put dps numbers because it's misleading but the damage is more than enough, even without Toxic Delivery I roll through T10s. 5.2k hp. Current Tree
Gear
Replaced a lot of gear with armour + accuracy as they were the weaknesses of the build. And changed some stuff with the tree. Got into a more hardcore viable setup. I didn't see a single trial so I can get Toxic Delivery from uber lab, it will add so much damage. That is why I regret not getting attack speed and Frenzy charge from Kraityn. They'd help a lot with movement and improving clear speed. Torment Shop : http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1121704 Last edited by ta3boo#2204 on Jun 15, 2016, 9:22:38 AM

Rapid decaying is very good for your setup and you can use it instead of inc. crit gem too
you can also pick the frenzy charge, for two points it doesnt hurt and blood rage is good anyway. 4% more damage is still great for two nodes I will never be good but always I try to improve. Last edited by Geisalt#1772 on Jun 15, 2016, 11:22:59 AM

" Yeah, you can see that I'm using Rapid Decay on my latest update, also made a point about frenzy charge in there. I'm just being lazy and not change it on the main post :) Torment Shop : http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1121704 Last edited by ta3boo#2204 on Jun 15, 2016, 3:02:33 PM

How would you say survivability is with your setup? Some gameplay vids if you get the time would be sweet, too.
