Nice to read, thanks, there are only very few melee-ranger-builds. I tried one and wasn't sure if it will work well...

I originally planned 2-hand but ended up with two rapiers because of the insame speed :) (only picked a few "swords"-skills at lvl 28 now, so I can switch 1H and 2H and I use mana and now move on to get more life-nodes)

It's fun and dual strike looks crazy with fast weapons, but... sometimes if I try my (bad blue) bow, I think it would be much easier to keep shooting. Multiple poison arrows deal lots of damage and it's quite safe from a distance.
(ok, this might change in higher difficulties)

Hmm, didn't thought about endgame yet. Sounds hard as melee, but (by chance) my second Char is an ice witch ;) so if merciless is not possible, I'll stick to cruel, no problem, at last it's a fun-and-testing-build.


One question still: Why no increased armour?

We want IR, so we want armour... but the examples here don't include "steel skin".
In the lower left, next to berserking, there are 10+10+30% increased armour and the next node would be "10% reduced mana cost". These 4 points look appealing to me ;)

+armour% does NOT work on evasion changed to armour through iron reflexes

Are you sure? It's somewhat confusing, but what I've read: it does.

This is a year old, but afaik only "leather and steel" was changed to give only one bonus not twice.

(oh, and the wiki)

If you have high Dex, then there might be more benefit from +%Evasion but 30% Armour isn't a bad amount.
