will do a big update on the guide soon since im 95 now vs 87(or what i was back then) better gear and so.

but gives u the idea. basicly each crit hit(3 pr multi) gives full pool. so it basicly takes something to hit past my 75% mitigation(maby+ pot) and that i dont block it.. and 1 shot pool for me to go Down.

Yes, I did a lot of levelling with Infernal Blow. It is a fun option to play around with and has some uses depending on the situation.

pros/cons in compariosn with reave? i mean InfernalBlow+MeleeSplash+MeleephysicalDMG+Multistrike should do more dmg then reave

Should perhaps, but they don't :) With this build you want single target DPS with a bit of AOE (though in one or two fights you don't want any AOE). Given that, the best options are Reave or Double Strike (or HS which has it's own pros/cons).

Using those 4 gems you mention would yield about 51% less DPS than the 4 I'm using, and you would have to deal with reflect issues, but your AOE range would be better and you would have melee corpse explosion (which can be good for even more AOE damage and bad for even more reflect).

Would this build not work very well with BoR ?

I mean the BLind alone will help you scale with the defensive stats. I see you loosing a lot of HP but may be worth it due to the possibilities of BoR passvies?

+ED charge when you block which is huge due to max block
+ 15% more block : you can then focus less on shield block nodes and putting them into HP nodes?

how your solve your mana problem??

I used BoR to level, but losing that many HP hurts the tankiness (still doable, just not quite as tanky). I never found Blind that useful when levelling (I actually prefer to have NPCs hit on me :)). In my case you would also lose chaos res (nice for blood rage), int (nice for max enfeeble), etc. But, if you don't have a Legacy Kaoms, then it would be worth tweaking things a bit and use it (depending on your gear).
