Once you get all the must have pieces out of the way the term "Blender" really starts to make sense! :)

Notes:
-This build can work from the Marauder start and the Scion start. The only big difference is the duelist will have the easiest time leveling up.

How about Ranger?



I took your current late game tree as a basis for the example above, as it is probably closest to what a 'normal' player can and will achieve for a final build. The stats as well as the nodes are practically the same, and just as with the Duelist you can pick up Iron Reflexes early. The only difference seems to be that a Ranger would probably do a little less damage, due to the smallest difference in Strength and sacrificing some minor damage nodes for the reroute. In turn it should be a little more tanky, thanks to the Health & Evasion nodes at the start of the tree.

Current setup, and only complaint is desync. I get it way to often, but the survivability is hard to beat. I'd love to respec to a ST/Aegis block build but with the new patch coming I don't know if it would be work it. Regardless, DS and Cyclone are both great, but cyclones healing synergy is to good to ignore, and so I use it to just face tank anything. Only level 72 atm. I am hoping for the day that cleave will be a good skill to use again.

Hello all.

I'm level 33 duelist using this build and I was wondering what ability should I use as my main splash / aoe damage ? I'm also very new to this game (this is my first character) so my gear is absolute horseshit. I just beat the game on normal (barely) and starting to work on cruel right now.

Dual Strike - Melee Splash - Multistrike (those gems shouldn't be too expensive, use poe.xyz.is to check for them)

you should be fine with those 3 until merciless, if you don't have leech on gear then use Life leech gem

There are topic that give away free gears for beginners, too. Search for them in the forums

Posting my gear, not the best but passable for now.

Okay so I finally got soultaker bor, 300 dps sword all that good stuff.

Now i just need to upgrade my flasks.

Does any one know what flasks x2p runs, and under which circumstances?

all i really have are life and mana.... dont know what else to get and which mods


anyone have any input on this?

I run a shield version of this (lvl 87 atm) and my flasks are two health and two granite and the 5th rotates. healths are dispells, granites are either added armor or added evasion.

I hate when people name their builds. Wasn't the name "blender" first used for physical Cleave? Now it's Cyclone. Fucking use "physical dual wield Cyclone Soul Taker + Bringer of Rain" or whatever. The "blender" name sucks anyways. It's especially annoying when someone posts this build somewhere (like on Reddit), and they just post "Official Blender Build". What the fuck?! Also how is this official in any way?
