I've been building this for a few days now using your guide, and I must say I already love it at lvl 35. Though I do have two things to ask, both off the confirmed assumption that Spectral Throw is a projectile weapon.
How much difference does Iron Grip make for the Spectral Throw Projectiles? Would it be decent in the early game to give ST more DPS?
What are your thoughts on the faster projectile support gem? I thought about combining it with the lesser Multiple Projectiles Gem for more speed and damage, but haven't found the right piece of gear for it yet.
Iron Grip makes a huge difference. I picked it up around level 30 and it doubled the damage of my spectral throw.

I feel like that tree could use some damage. Offense is the best defense.
Here's a Frenzy, Projectile Weakness, GmP/LmP + Bloodmagic + added fire + life on hit + Spectral throw rapid fire build I'm working on. Crazy attack speed which means fast throws. (for Nemesis, HC I would take more life nodes)
Point Blank is still up in the air, i'm gonna try it out.
Also, why ditch evasion and solely rely on armor, and also not take 16% chaos res?. Doesn't look very tanky to me especially for HC.
your build has like no life. in hc you WILL die.
with evasion you have a "chance" to evade.. witch means you can still get hit for the full amount. changing it all to armor means you will get hit for a reduced amout every time. until you try it you will never see how tanky it is.
as for the "offense is best defense" sure that works.. until you get 1shot. i build for survival not killing speed. my build has "enough" dps to kill efficiently.
if all out dps works for you cool, that is your choice and the reason why this game is SOOOOO GREAT!!!!. you can do anything you want!!!

I swapped to this build at the start of Merciless. I've just dinged 60 and so far the bosses have been easier (with no deaths) than they were on Cruel.
Just from following the basics set out in the first post.
Still haven't had any "Cast on Damage" gems drop though so I have to be a bit more cautious than with constant endurance up.
Nice job on the build!

Hello, would the unique "Pillar of the Caged God" work for a staff variation in late game?

Using your build is pretty solid. I died at 44 late at night to corrupting blood. I've done a little adjusting on how I spend the points leveling up though. For someone like myself that doesn't have a supply of items or currency I run into gear/stat issues rather early on.
49 points.
More early DPS, grabbed the two 30 nodes for dex and int because of gear issues. Little less tank but that's fine. Once you get Mind over Matter with good mana regen you get room for error. Overall for the early stages this works out. I've never had to worry about stun and so forth. After this I'll do something like...
59 points.
From there I'm not sure if I want to go up to EB or go Leather and Steel + Mana Flows. |

personally i left eb for late. i didnt get it till 74ish. and you'll need mana flows for the regen once you start getting into merc a3 cuase u will take a lot of dmg from mana.
