Even with the life nerf, you want more than 34% maximum life.

this your tree is not for this build.

Are you gonna update the guide to 1.2? :)

LOL, going deeper in new 1.2.0 tree mechanics!


LIFE NERFING NEWS:
(GGG nerfed life from armor to help poor player and lets total HP more indipendet from items)

example on a 86 level character:

1.1.5:
starting life: 50 +(8x85) = 730 base flat life.
202% life increase multiplier: 730x3,02 = 2.205 HP
1.2.0:
starting life 63 + (12x85) = 1.083 base flat life
127% life increase multiplier: 1.083x2,27 = 2.458 HP

BUT if we consider that in this build STR values is about 110-140 (125 average) we should consider even 125/2 = 62 more HP about!
so:
792 x 3,02 = 2390hp flat ABOUT in 1.1.5
1145 x 2,27 = 2600hp flat ABOUT in 1.2.0

... It shoud be a WOW?

No. The real problem is around the life gained with ARMOR/ITEM...if u take an AVERAGE life gained from items of 70 HP per 8 pieces armor/jewelry, the life LOST in 1.2.0 should be about:
(70 x 8 x 3,02) - ( 70 x 8 x 2,27) = 1691 - 1271 = 420 HP Lost...

TOTAL: 200 HP gained on flat plus 420 hp lost on items is a result of more 200 HP about lost...

Plus we lost 4% Life Leech...


But now GOOD good news!

with the tree i posted before we will should gain (from now):

+120% increased physical damage!
+45% increased critical strike chance
+15% increased critical strike multiplier (doubled about!)
+3% increased attack speed

Thanks allot for the updates man, this build inspired me to try dual claw as i had some unique (dimh?) leveling claws anyway.

I gotta say its one of the most fun builds i have done and i really hope its not wrecked by the coming patch.

Well, if you drop some damage nodes you can grab constitution from the scion life wheel, witch is the strongest life node on the tree now, that alone should do for the health loss, and we would still have damage increase. So it's really more about where you want to spend your passives on. If you balance it we're on a win/win situation. Except for life leech.

There was also some talk about mana cost reduction for skills and support gems on Forsaken Master Tora from yesterday, idk if it apply to us, but since dual strike is one of the most expensive melee skills it could be on the list. Means we could maybe drop some mana / mana regen nodes.

My new version of the tree.

I have a little less life but should be much stronger

ps : Depend on mana and life I might remove some of the accuracy nodes near
the shadow. in theory I should have enough accuracy.

You can drop Mind Drinker, Soul Raker provides the mana leech now, and if you want mana Soul Siphon is the better option.

I'm going to test what 4% mana leech will be like.. To be honest the build might
need a bit of mana even with the mana decrease.


ps : probably be spending loads of regrets to tweak it until I am happy with it so the one above is just a draft


Pss: My latest version

Life should be the same as old build but both defense and offense should be stronger.

I focus on speed because I love doing 9 attack per second !!

generally speaking this new passive tree allows alot of flexibilty so
if you want to focus on anything else for example block it allows it
