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

This calculation was wrong on so many levels :)

I'm surprised that this hasn't been asked yet so I'll go ahead and start the discussion on it:

How much is expected to change with this build in 1.0? My main concern is with Iron Reflexes. I've heard rumors that GGG is going to do away with the Node completely in the new passive tree. Has anyone else hears this? Would the build still be possible without it? Also, has anyone thought of a way to use the new Trigger Gems with this build? Will they even be necessary? I'm hoping to start rushing through Domination on Day 1 with a fresh Blender -- I'm just afraid so much is going to change that the build won't be possible or will be drastically changed. Anyone have an opinion on any of this? Thanks

Hey! Awesome build. I`m at lvl 80 now and have a lot of fun!

Need help - I`m playing with BoR and Soul Taker. Now I would like to upgrade my second arm :) What weapon should I choose and why...

Or maybe you know even better option...

Thx for help!

can someone pls explain to me why bringer of rain adds more dps than a6l rrrrrg armor?

im not getting it..

i read almost every post and no one is asking about leveling :D i am not playing for the first time but i would love a every 20level build to it because i dont really know where to start :D or should i level with something else and switch back to it as i get more passives?

Thanks for the build!

You touch both classes starting point for Marauder (12%hp one, not 15% melee dmg) and Duellist (left one, but with a point also in 6% attack speed one)
Therefore, from a banal calculation I understand that you preferred to take 6% attack speed from Duellist instead of 15% melee dmg from Marauder, and this is the reason you rolled a Duellist and not a Marauder.
Therefore you consider 1% attack speed >= 2.5% melee dmg.
Then you suggest 18% melee damage from bandist, instead of 8% attack speed.
Therefore you consider 1% attack speed <= 2.25% melee dmg.
Pull up your pants boy, this makes no f*ing sense.

edit

should i take the Sword nodes even if i have 1 axe/1sword?

Thanks

EDIT: if i take Iron refelx than i dont have ANY evasion so why not take unwavering stance if i cant eavade anyway?

BoR has blind.

Blinded mobs have 75% chance to miss you - you have 75% chance to evade - with 0 evasion.

So get US if you dont use BoR (like the guide tells you ...).

i have tried this build out. after level 39 it sucks ballz. bad.

i have litteraly died 148 times with this build AND im only level 61 AND im using the tankier hardcire variation #2.
