[1.0.6] 2H Mace Spectral Throw Build - Best of all worlds

Can you talk some more vs Swords, Axes and Maces.

Im lvl 60 now and i havent spent any passives on wpns (but general ones) yet.
It seems the choice really is between Axes and Maces, because you several trees nearby.

axes nodes are pretty bad compared to mace nodes, u get like no life or armor with them and there is not enough of them.

as for the skill tree, master of arena nodes should all be dropped, they are kinda useless end game and you can get more life elsewhere.

The big problem with discussing what is better is that its probably better to create a build around what you find not what you would like to obtain.

An awful lot of this guides seem to assume you can 'trade' to get the equipment you want which may have been true 6 months ago but simply isn't now.

I've built the skeleton of this build and carried on without spending 13 passives because I simply don't have a weapon axe/mace/sword to justify spending anything specific to them. I've currently level 79 and could easily get to 85-90 before I find anything worthwhile

Hi, i like you build i just want to point out a slightly error were you can get abit more life.

If you remove 3 points from the scion life wheel (at the top) 8% each and put them to get thick skin (inbetween duelist/ranger tree) your get 10% extra life.

Just a little min/maxin.

That's at 117/120 which is not quite feasible. Like I've said before, the 117 tree is to show possible options. The skeleton is the core of the build.

It's nice to see someone else running a 2h'd Mace ST Build. I still maintain that using a melee skill is inferior to just running another Spectral Throw Gem, setup for Single Target. You negate all of the Pros of ST, by then jumping in melee with a boss.

For comparison, if you are interested.

@thread opener: why you write ST is pretty op atm? do you want a nerf or something? its many things but certainly not op.

Hi i'm pretty new to the game and I've been using your build on my 2hST Scion. I was wondering, in the links section you have numbers next to CwDT, Immortal Call, Enduring Cry, Enfeeble, and Increased duration. Are those numbers supposed to be the level of the gems? If so, what's bad about leveling those up? Thanks for the guide!

I reset my lvl 40 Mara today (was GS, LS, HS with Hatred)

I'm just curious how important is Blood Magic to this build? Can i just skip it and rely on mana leech? I simply never tried BM before because Hatred helped so much on my meelee build

I was thinking of this build (exactly 45 skillpoints)

* I went for Sentinel before Iron Reflexes because of gear, i have almost no evasion gear, so the extra resists will help me a bit more at the moment. I.E. my only deaths this month were from from lightning and cold damage (and lag)

Seriously though, how important is Blood Magic Keystone for this build?

I always stayed away from it in the past.
