[3.13] IMPALE CHAMPION Build. ANY Physical Sword Skill! (Blade Flurry/Cyclone/Cleave/Bladestorm/etc)

I've been running this build in Heist lately, and I feel super squishy in early level maps (no Abyssus either). I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong?

I know it's possible to link your character here but I don't have any idea how, so if someone can't find it if they let me know how to do so I will happily do it.

Any help is appreciated.

You have quite a lot of damage on you, but very little life.

Hi, i have two Questions:
1) what do you mean with the explo chest "DESTROYS porcupine projectiles"?
Is the explosion of the chest actively destroying the projectiles of enemies?

2) How do i craft your chest in heist league? I think i undestood the beasics but i dont want to do something wrong, because there is lots of currency involved:

- Buy an Ilvl86 base crusader chest (astral plate for example)
- 6link it with +quality
- alteration or fossil craft the explo mod and you need an open suffix?
- take a rare chest with only +critical strike chance and use an awakener orb on it?

is this right?

It looks lke it destroys projectiles that monsters shoot, which is an on-death effect

i do recommend just buying the chest. Crafting is vary random

Hey dude, enjoying the build so far and I really like this ascendancy.

Im using Cyclone. What does the Pulverise support gem replace in the cyclone links and when is it best used? Is it for bosses or clearing?

As of now my links look like this:

Cyclone - Melee Phys - Brutality - Impale - Fortify - Infused Channeling

Drop infused channeling as it requires a tonn of int

if i can handle it, should i use it?

why u don't take node Soul of Steel?
Isn't better to go cluster jews, than taking nodes in right area?
And what's your favorite phys skill to use with this build? was thinking 'bout bladestorm. Smth that can claer maps and kill bosses easily.



P.S: we don't need accuracy to deal dmg with bladestorm clouds, right?
P.S.S: do u need multistrike sup for bladestorm setup?

Yeah it's great but i would not sacrifice stats for int

Hi, so I have been running a similar build with Reave / Blade Flurry but I'm having troubles with one-shots, and I think they are mostly from spells (not 100% sure). Have been looking for a way to upgrading my build to be a little bit more tanky (like some spell block/dodge) but I see you don't even run evasion in this build. How do this build deal with that?

So I just followed a guide to build my character, but I've no more to follow. If someone could help me a bit to upgrade my build I would be very grateful.

My PoB build link: https://pastebin.com/bMmywTjp

On ascendancy I went for Unstoppable Hero. Should I switch to First to Strike, Last to Fall? And would the skill tree from this build help me in survavility?
I'm so lost on upgrading the build to be more tanky :(
