[v1.7] 39k+ DPS with INFERNAL BLOW, +239% life, +6.8% regen, +145% armor, TRIPLE curses + blinds!

I'll try and check. Still got a level 53 templar on this setup and I re-invested the points from the skill reset into a pattern as closely resembling this build as I can. The rearrangement of the skill tree means that elemental equilibrium now costs a few more points to reach; otherwise nothing seems too different at the moment. I have yet to actually try the build in combat on v1.0; will do so soon.

Hey there folks, been playing around during open beta with a LS build, now looking to try an Infernal Blow build. Just wanted to check, but aiming for these main keystones:

Resolute Technique
Blood Magic
Hex Master
Whispers of Doom

Is Elemental Equilibrium still a good idea?

Other than the above, +resist, +life, +phys damage, +ele/fire damage, +endurance charges

Anything else? I haven't got a build link yet as I am still playing around with the planner before spending points.

EDIT: Playing around with this one on the planner atm:

Hi there.
I have a question related to the skill tree :
There are few skill picks like berserking or EE, but they are just single skill not connected to other parts of the tree that you picked. The question is : is it possible in game and if - how to do so?

This is an old pre-release build, which doesn't exist anymore.

I've followed this thread for a couple of days now. Reading and modifying. But. Now when I read the last page people are saying "life sucks" and due to that, this build is broken.

As I understand, the way life work got nerfed and therefore life-nodes = sucky sucky? How come there are so many of them if your not supposed to take them? What did they change?

I've tried Infernal Blow as my main skill for a wile, but when I arrived at Act 3, normal, I couldn't use it anymore, unless I wanted to end up dead.
I currently use LS+LGH+ALD for range and Sweep+WED+AFD+BM(due to lack of mana, works great.)

I play on Nemesis.

Stats is:

1671HP/242ES
1550 Armor(with Molten Shield)
430 Evasion
And 35%~ In All Resistances (Cruel) -13% Chaos

Using a 2H, but going to switch to 1H+Shield.

I have now switched to a 1H and Shield, my defenses are way better than before.
I also switched to a Melee Splash gem instead of Weapon Elemental Damage, and also put Infernal Blow back instead of Sweep, since I can't use Sweep a 1H/Shield wielder. This helped out ALOT with bigger packs, and the DPS is actually better now since IB it spreads out more.

Is anything like this viable anymore? :)

Hi I began this build but I didn't see that he wasn't relevent anymore so I'm at the 3rd act at normal I'm lvl 29 and I have a big problem with survivallability there is my passive tree
Would you have an idea please?
