Just to reinforce the idea this build still rocks, I just respected my blender into a variant of this build. Same basic idea with trying to cap block and spell block using rainbows and the spell block Ammy. I did go into the Mara life area but didn't travel to Templar.

Yep, and you don't need any legacy gear to make it work. I'm level 85 in Ambush and doing maps up to 77 easily. Haven't done Atziri yet but it's on my list of things to do before the league ends.

I've got 32k DPS on dual strike and 17k DPS on cyclone. If I'm buffed by party auras it's not unusual for me to hit 45k and 25k, respectively. I have cyclone running on mana, but on half/no regen maps I switch reduced mana/added fire for blood magic/lgoh and my cyclone DPS drops to about 13k. 4.65k life, but I'm getting about 150 more each time I level.

Corrupted Stone of Lazhwar with clarity lets me run CWDT-EC-IC-Enfeeble instead of needing to dedicate another socket to clarity, since sockets are pretty tight on my gear.

My passives


EDIT: Updated post for newer more tanky spec

What do you think of The Anvil as an alternative?

I have a slightly different tree, i made some other choices, and i'm @68% block chance

this make The anvil perfect with it's +10% block + +3% max block -> 78% block chance

but honestly i cant decide what's better...

78% block chance and half spellblock, but with an interesting +mana+life on block and a lot of armour

OR

68% block chance and spell block

....

Already lvl 78 ( almost 79 ) with this build. Probably the biggest problem of this build is lack of two stats: Int ( to equip rainbowstride ) and resists because of BoR. But if you manage to make it you will have sweet times.
Current tree

Items

3.8k hp
16k dual strike DPS ( without hatred )
70% block+spellblock
40% evade ( 42% with charges ) and x2 of that for projectiles.
12% reduced dmg ( 24 with charges )
77% all res

Doing maps up to 72 ( didn't dropped better ) and i feel so safe. Mobs melting, bosses melting, rogues melting. Only 2% mana leech is enought and 5% life leech for blood rage. And 5 frenzy charges provide sick attack speed too. Best build i played yet.

I'll input my variant of this build.




4k hp
20k unbuffed dual strike dps(30k with Hatred+Haste+4frenzy charges)
74% block/spell block
21% evade
6% physical damage reduction
76% all res
5.5% life regen
-10% mana cost

You need 800+mana pool to sustain 6L dual strike mana cost.2% mana leech is more than enough.If you can't sustain,take mana cost reduction nodes under hard knocks or use reduced mana gem instead of added fire.

Auras:Hatred+Haste
Hatred+Purity for map mods like elemental weakness.
You need 16% chaos res on gear to sustain blood rage.however at -60% degen is still manageable(0.58%/s).

you can do any map mod.
Blood magic - turn off auras(need to cap res without purity)
Low regen - don't use blood rage(need leech on gear),swap added fire with reduced mana
No regen - don't use blood rage
Elemental weakness,elemental equilibrium - use purity of elements instead of haste
Vulnerability - don't use blood rage,use grace if needed

Doing ~77(highest i have) rare maps fine and facetanking almost everything.

With a corrupted Stone of Lazhwar for 3% block chance you can drop one of the nodes near the Scion start for 2% block and hit the 75% block cap for block and spell block.

Very well worth it, IMO.

Yea it's good,but you have to get that ~30int from elsewhere.
