Could you split the skill tree into parts of 10-20 level maybe? I'm lvl 60 atm and I don't know what cluster is more important.

As mentioned in the Skilltree section, always prioritize life cluster then get the nearby damage nodes. Once you progressed to Thick Blood you can start to skill the crit + crit multi nodes. The left branch up to Harriar is taken last.

Also Crest of Perandus has only 5% block chance now or is that unimportant?

See "New Patch & Items" section: "If you are playing Challenge Leagues, a Great Old One's Ward is the best option."

Hey, is it just me, or does your gear not have Reave in it? I might be overlooking something

Please read the notification typed in bold. Disregard all sockets of the linked gear! I specifically typed out the gem setups in the "Gem setups" section.

(double post)

Hello .. iam fairly new in game and didnt try Reave or shadow in general before so i want to ask u some questions if u dont mind :D

First i saw other reave builds but they were running Daresso armor , abyssus helmet and atziri boots
so i just wanna know the difference between having BoB & daresso ,, and the advantage or disadvantage of having the abyssus .
Secondly, what are ur thoughts about Doryani's belt? any diff from ructic sash or same result?
Third, i will not be running acuity, so Vaal pact is a must? ( will get Bino's knife )
Fourth, is this build like glass cannon? squishy or balanced defensively?

Iam sorry for asking alot, but i liked ur build and currency i have will only buy me a build of 1 guide,
so wanna know everything before i invest in it cuz ofc everyone wants the best output :D

Greetings ^^

Main difference is that with Abyssus you oneshot yourself on reflect if you don't dodge/evade the damage.

No life mod, so it isn't suited for this build at all.

As outlined in the "New Patch & New Items" section, Bino's is quite useless now. If you still plan on using it, you should not spec into VP until your damage becomes so high that you start killing yourself on reflect.

This build has Acrobatics/Spell Acrobatics, high leech as well as a decent amount of Hp, so it is defensively quite strong for a melee DPS build.

Hi, i want to try this build, but... how can i sustain Blood Rage's degen with VP? (sorry for my bad english lol)

Hit some mobs and you will leech everything back. In case of long travel distances between packs use a Hp potion or breack Blood Rage with weapon swap.

Big update coming soon. Don't invest any passive points or currency for now.

Nice to know, and one more question.. what you think about Daresso instead Belly of the Beast?

With Daresso's you will need T1 resistances on every item to reach res cap. Also, I don't like playing melee with only ~5k life.
