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

hi x2p
this is my Hardcore Variation build.
it still need some work, if you guys have any idea. lmk!

Okay, I made this build. I thought that the Marauder's section was nerfed, while the ranger's was buffed and the scion's lifewheel became awesome again.

So it doesn't go for Resolute Technique. But its also not weapon specific, besides one handed melee, and I think its stats are otherwise solid. It will probably want an accuracy item or two and might use increased critical multiplier gem.

I made this one, it's more hardcore viable since it uses a shield, but you can also swap out the shield nodes for dual wield nodes for more a higher damaging softcore build. It has around 160% max life, 81% attack speed, max block with BoR and perandus shield, and over 350% increased physical damage.

Here's the catch, you can only use swords and you don't have any boosts to int. Skill of choice would be reave unless cleave becomes the better option.

I'm looking at some of the builds here, they miss out on some REALLY good nodes.

Click here for PoeBuilder

* 450% physical damage
* 16% movespeed
* 130% attack speed
* 170% armour
(almost as good as OP's with 30% more life and really close life nodes)

This tree has 117% life, which is about 15% less than the current 1.1 build and ontop of the fact we're going to be getting more life per level that doesn't really matter. It gets about 20% more phys dmg on nodes and about 50% more attack speed for swords dual wielding but only 12% block with Dual wield and +4% with dual wield or shield (which we don't use). 16% block seems like it's low compared to what you can get, but the nodes that grant just dual wield block aren't that great.

The life we can get instead of some of the damage nodes include: Blade of renown 10% for 5 points, Barbarism 20% life+ 1% Maximum fire resist for 5 points and 30+ flat life+12% life on Heart of warrior, as well as the life and armor nodes. For 6 points, which is a bit further than the other choices, combat stamina which includes more of the scion life wheel and grants 45% armor 5% life and 1% regen. Another 6 points away is Razor's edge 10% life. On the other end of that spectrum 3 points for Bloodless which is just life nodes and can't get leeched with 20% life

This build also has 80% increased life regen from flasks, which with Herbalism's 20% flask recovery and Meignords 25% life flask recovery that's heaps from Sapping Life Flasks, I use leech mana to get your mana back.

Edit: PLS NO FENCING, it's been gutted, RIP Fencing

Edit 2: added numbers for clarity

Blender = Resolute technique and Dual Wield

dont Spam useless build here people...

My attempt on making this whole thing HC viable http://tinyurl.com/n4nccwx

I've made a build that does more damage than his "Glass Cannon's" and has significantly more hp. On the down side it is limited to swords.

It's better than mine, I admit that I'll probably be using yours over mine :D

I want to know in the standard league will all this attack speed be a requirement? Also I don't think someones made a "good" high damage varient yet.

You guys have any suggestions on making this build more HC viable?
i hope that the damage will not suck balls, but damage is not that important for HC :D

I optimized the build a bit more. I got some more damage in while retaining almost as much tanky-ness (slightly less). https://poebuilder.com/character/AAAAAgQAmSubLb2BFx1HfleXFFJgQWVNEdWE2b6nWNvv41PfY3CbgzSTtkFOKluvKaXdDRjb_MXBi3jrZ6C3Fwqbh3Zc-Up9ZFo4lghJ4JWy3FbokAo67W20Ne-BQaQZG_ol3zIJcmxsRqlueA2-igHc2L01krXy_gqmV03j_o8xnjrh8kU8Lcautz5-vZf-KCp82XKprKon7cT2ErwQ8K-i8lqHGWwW_EvveucK036VZgOHcHIbrUxgBLFNkiP2o4qNfecPBu7cvTGwy_XUUjB8AhGXcKPnRNIDJ-RRZ5ubaotPkHTnrg==
