Official Blender Post! Lets theory craft for 1.2! 123k Cleave DPS!

Incidentally, more life not only equals more leech, it also means more regen! Taking all of the reasonably available life, I have a total of 6611. I leech 20% of that/second (1322 hp/second) and regen 297.5/second. With cyclone against a single target (worst case for LGoH) I am instantly getting back 516.24 hp/second (this figure will improve once I retake berserking). That's a total regen of 2135.74 hp/second, worst case.

At approximately 5k hp, we are getting back 1000 hp/second via leech, regenerating like 250 or a little less, and getting back a little more from LGoH (cuz we should have more attack speed nodes/berserking). What I'm attempting to illustrate is that life in this build is it's own reward. Get lots of it. We sacrifice two points for the ranger life nodes, and three for the templar life nodes. I think this is a very fair trade, given that aside from the two wheels under resolute technique there's really nothing else easily available that also allows us to get berserking (the most fun perk in the tree).

please comment thx in advance^^


reponse sent. thx for getting me killed on academy as i wrote it. note to self: don't idle on academy at the map start point, giant skeletons will kill u.
@ lvl91; 76 academy

-players are cursed w. vulnerability
-monsters fire 2 additional projectiles
-monster physical resistance

*fatality experienced previously w. low armor setup on 3 projectile mod; this is an attempt at replication
*option to run determination declined; intention is to attempt to facetank this boss in spite of projectiles//vulnerability
*functionally an armor test

facetank successful w. heavy flask usage; bosses book tornados drained half-life from the grave as my pots were low at which point I rapidly moved to a safe zone
Hi blenders!

I'm level 82, have a non-legacy BoR, two ~300 pdps weaps and only getting 15K dps from cyclone (I can reach 45k with double strike, is this gap normal?). (cyclone is linked with bor's gems + blood magic + life gain on hit + Concentrated Effect)

The other problem i'm facing is the amount of life Cyclone+Blood Magic requires is about 250. On clearing big packs i don't have any problems, but while killing spreaded mobs i may find my life getting drained by blood magic gem (i'm not using cyclone as a movement skill, but sometimes it's triple triggered meaning a 800 life loss and about 300 life gain on hit), anyone else experiencing the same problem? (i can't afford a soul taker, be it legacy or not)

Last problem is the Concentrated effect gem: i only have about 70int and i can't level the gem past level 8: should i invest in a +30 node, keep concentrated effect or switch to another gem?

Thanks in advance :D

You need any source with leeching life from physical damage. I can say for myself i found ok to leech 2% of my poor 6k damage at the moment. My life almost never drops below 90% (well i mean only if i get hard hit with physical, but i can outheal incredibly fast :)
ʕ•̫͡•ʕ*̫͡*ʕ•͓͡•ʔ-̫͡-ʕ•̫͡•ʔ*̫͡*ʔ
Late-ish and Mid-game skill trees are the same. Please, fix it.
Not sure what to do next, gear-wise. I am level 76 and just making my way into the lower part of the Marauder area. I have the ranger area (without Heart of Oak), one INT node (for Enfeeble), and took the low road from RT (though I'm not married to that). I still have Sentinel for one more level, then i'll respec out of that into Diamond skin.

I'm having no trouble on low level maps except eff the museum.

I'm still using dual strike and my damage is somewhat limited by having to have a life leech gem but it's 9788 right now with Hatred up. Armor is 8486 (50%) with Grace and 21106 (71%) with a Granite Flask - 34318 (80%) with granite and jade.

I honestly don't understand how people get so much currency, I have maybe 3-5 ex if I consolidate every orb I have so solutions like "buy a soul taker" aren't really viable.

Spoiler




Resists are very good right now at 103-113% and with the fire nodes coming up I should be able to move out of that on gear a little. I was thinking about a carnage heart, but I'm not sure about the -25% life.

Thanks for any advice.

Can someone (anyone that understands the build thoroughly) post the leveling tree OR the kind of direction I should be headed for (node wise)? The leveling trees OP posted are outdated, therefore they don't work properly anymore.

I searched all topic for relevant information but I couldn't find any (maybe I failed, I dunno).


tl dr How do I level this thing?!

left hand side, south to the regen keystone
right hand side -> ranger side of tree taking mini wheel if you want (easy to respec out of this)
wheel of life w. nodes along the way as per your build
- or take the south side path between the duelist/marauder tree if that's your build -> wheel of life
resolute technique/iron reflexes
life/mitigation then damage
