Thank you so much for this guide. I have tried numerous other builds that all have failed miserably, especially around level 30, espesially the characters that have an easy start like Shadow & Duelist.
With the help of this guide, I was able to clear Normal in no time, my first ever character to do so - you have written a very detailed, peculiarly to-the-point walkthrough, and I wish to extent my gratitude to you for it.
I wish that more people would write such helpful and detailed guides.

Any advice?
Blood magic will ensure you can use your special skills "at will" which is kind of big thing, if you want to take aura path there is alternative - use blood magic gem for your ground slam attack (tie one of your 3/4/5 linked attack gear in it, you will hit slightly weaker ofc) and use up your entire mana pool for auras, I saw ppl discuss it dozen pages back. Will it be worth it? Hard to say, depends on your gear and approach but luckily blood magic is but one skill and it's beside your path anyway. You could try how it works and respec back easily.
Thank you, but I'm not sure how easy it is to respec back. I can try the blood magic gem route first.
I'm not sure what you were trying to say in your next post about 3 minutes later, but this one was helpful.

Nope. Use Blood Magic Keystone. Blood Magic Support Gem requires good gear along with decent weapon simultaneously keeping high life leech with large life pool in order to increase it's cap.

Was fortunate to come across a "Carcass Jack" that is one of the chest pieces that is preferred for this build. I was wondering what is the best way to acquire the intellect that it takes to equip it.

So how do I run Hatred + other auras like Anger? Hatred takes up 30% of your mana by itself. That would be 30% of your life, right?

You run non-% based auras.
You do not run % based auras. I would cry about loosing Purity rather than Hatred (It is not like you are loosing 20% of the dps, cause with Added Fire Damage it is ~15% and then it is approximatelly halved by enemies resistances)

Build up some life leech, from passive tree and from gear and put multistrike instead in that hammer. You'll love it, I guarantee.
Hi Bro,do you mean Multistricke instead of life lich or which one was it already connected to Ground Slam?
In this case i have to go into the middle of the group of monsters and i think for thi one i have not got the power atm.
What is the average DPS for a ground slammer?I have only 1.3k atm.
I am thinking to collect the currencies for a Carcass,what can help me a lot i think.

Are you still using Endrurace Cry in merc difficulty?

1. I was using Warlord's Mark Curse to generate Endurance Charges. It is up to personal preference
2. None using Blood Magic Keystone
3. Ye
4. Carcass won't help your dps. Buy better weapon.
