I think in 3.3 you were using hatred/blasphemy/ash so you took nodes to reduce mana reservation as well as the jewel slot. with switching from hatred to herald of purity do you think its better to ignore those points for reduction to mana reservation and get more life nodes near marauder/ranger? i took a look at your current tree and it seems that you were doing not but not sure if you intend to respec and maybe do something with enlighten + reservation nodes to squeeze in another aura if possible.

also what do you think about the 10% chance to freeze/shock/ignite boot enchant? im not sure how effective it is but getting a shock might help on single target but tbh im not sure. i havent messed around in PoB since im at work and the thought just came to me

great point. playing around in PoB for my level 76.
was able to increase damage reduction 2%, block 3%, kept health about the same and got more damage. also picked up unwavering stance in the process and can remove Kaom's Roots. did lose a frenzy charge and a jewel socket though but the Splitting Strikes and Ambidex/blade barrier nodes made up for it. there is a jewel socket above resolute that is attainable.

I'm not going to spec into aura reservation yet or use any blasphemies. I haven't messed around for PoB much for end-game, but I will probaby do so soon to see what the optimal setup is. For now, since I'm pushing t15s I'm just stacking life% nodes and playing around with vaal double trike + vaal ancestral warchief.

16% attack speed is much better than 10% chance to freeze/shock/ignite, if you want 10% chance to freeze, you can look into replacing one of your gems with hypothermia.

www.poeurl.com/b5LH Is my current lvl 88 passive tree, I might modify it later once I've done a bit more PoB tinkering.

lv45
Currently using a SOFT filter while progressing through the storyline: https://pastebin.com/raw/AmcZ1Uae

Using maim instead of damage on full life because I don't have overleech yet, haven't bought a rare yet and barely spent any currency to socket/colour the gear, sitting with like 5c worth of currency

Haven't picked up a crisom jewel to craft and not planning to buy one yet

Currently using a SOFT filter while progressing through the storyline: https://pastebin.com/raw/AmcZ1Uae

Using maim instead of damage on full life because I don't have overleech yet, haven't bought a rare yet and barely spent any currency to socket/colour the gear, sitting with like 7c worth of currency, not sure what I'm saving up for since I already have a tabula

Haven't picked up a blue crisom jewel to craft and not planning to buy one just yet

lv79
Currently using a SOFT filter while unlocking my atlas and buying cheap gear: https://pastebin.com/raw/AmcZ1Uae

- Now that I have overleech, I swapped maim with damage on full life.
- Bought my soul taker + essence of insanity + a few other uniques.
- All my jewels were 1c each, very cheap and fixed my res problem that I'll have later when I start crafting insanity and steel rings, until I get really good ones.
- I'm also temporarily using an abyssus until I get my 15% sunder attack speed enchant helmet. I don't recommend using an abyssus but it's great for levelling, works well with brightbeak, which I was using for a while.

I respecc'd from maces to axes since I got my soul taker

lv88
Currently using a SOFT filter while unlocking my atlas and buying cheap gear: https://pastebin.com/raw/AmcZ1Uae

Got my shaper statstick for 5c and finished my gem links for both vaal ancestral warchief and vaal double strike which helps a lot in red map bosses to get my atlas all setup

lv90
Passive tree: www.poeurl.com/b6aq

Currently using a semi-strict filter while farming t10 shaped maps and red elders: https://pastebin.com/raw/LEwvyDnj

-Moved both vaal skills into the same helmet
- I will consider going without kaom's roots after I'm done with uber elder.
- Got a cheap lion's roar for under 5c for a massive defensive and damage boost
- Yet to upgrade my jeweller
- Yet to annul my spiked gloves to craft another life/res mod
- Got a belt of the deceiver with 12% attack speed during flasks mod
- After completing uber lab, I replaced my adrenaline silver flask with a stibnite adrenaline flask
-
Bought a 15% sunder ias starkonja's for uber lab and hard bosses like t15 reef (brine king hits hard with a tabula)
- Considered crafting a shaper's curse on hit ring but turned out to be pretty crappy after blowing a tonne of alts on it
- vaal'd my six sunders to get a lvl 21 sunder, major damage boost
- vendoring a tonne of qualitied gems to GCP up my gems instead of leveling twice
lv91
Passive tree: www.poeurl.com/b6oU

Currently using a semi-strict filter while farming t10 shaped maps and red maps: https://pastebin.com/raw/LEwvyDnj

- Annuled my spiked gloves to craft another life mod
- New shaper offhand
- offcoloured a cheap starkonja's for 3R1G with vorici's trick
- Specced into 15% allres to help with future gearing
- Got rid of vaal double strike for ancestral protector to boost more AoE(delving) sunder DPS by a tonne when I have both ancestral protector and vaal ancestral warchief up, instead of VDS boosting more single target. It also provides more DPS by itself than just vaal ancestral protector when I have no souls against uber elder, uber izaro or uber guardians

NEW LVL100 PoB Update:
Luxury optimised gear lvl 100
https://pastebin.com/xTyzPDJ1
With luxury gear (around 40ex worth):
- 7934HP with belt a belt of the deceiver

I have 2% life leach on my offhand claw, but it does not show up in POB. Am I getting it?

Nope. I recommend getting a scepter for WED, or axe for the offhand shaper affixes, like added fire damage for ancestral warchief. poeaffix.net

Has anyone tried this with Consecrated path?
As a new player I am not entirely sure why you take Slayer instead of Gladiator, which was more bonus for one handed weapons. Is it for the life recovery through life leech?

Also how much does Immortal Call actually benefit you now that you have taken out any source of Endurance charges (like Warlords Mark or Enduring Cry) from what I can see?

Slayer has 20% culling + 20% more damage when killing writhing worms (or any other mob), thats an insane amount of damage, especially good when levelling you can one shot most packs even with rares inside them.

With overleech, you are basically an unstoppable machine.

Vaal pact doesn't work well with conc path, and playing slayer without vaal pact isn't recommended.

Rather go flicker strike instead. There are a lot of good builds with conc path featuring jugg or chieftain with similar speeds to flicker strike.
