2.5K is not actually that bad with this build, your evasion and armour are about where they should be, but it sure helps to have a Lazhwar to block 47% of spells, along with maxed, overcapped resists with leveled up Purity.

3K life is definitely better though. :)

Ah, I totally forgot my Lazhwar, sitting quietly in the stash... Sometimes I could slap my forehead a few times to reboot my brain :-) Will try that, even if I drop to 43% cold resistance, should be no problem in the Barracks. I can't use Purity right now, need Tempest Shield for my block, 6 levels to go for max block with Perandus, than I can switch from Tempest Shield to Purity, a long way to go...

This is it for now! Lv. 36, Cruel, end of Act I. Works great! Having some trouble acquireing Multistrike tho

Having some trouble acquireing Multistrike tho

Found my Multistrike in Act2 Cruel, was a real gamechanger!

I found another Multistrike a little while ago that someone can have if they are in desperate need. It's in Standard though so apologies if I got someones hopes up. PM me and we'll sort out a time and whatnot if you're interested.

is there no AOE attack in this build? And what is the best way to lvl up quickly while following this? :)

rly looking forward to get this running :D!

I'm now level 55 Act 1 Merciless and atm i'm grabbing 3 Life nodes ( 6 + 6 + 16 ) near Ranger area.
What whould me more help with leveling - rush to Ondar's Guile or up to Precise Interception / Weapon Artistry ?

Your gear looks great for your level.

Multistrike is a random drop, I found mine in Pools and Streams in act 2 Merciless, but that's just where I happened to be in the game when they patched the gem in. :)

Welcome!

You can use any AOE attack skill you like. :) The build is totally open as far as attack skill gem selection.

I don't personally need an AOE skill because multistrike can alternate between adjacent targets. For only a four link, which is the best I've been able to find or craft so far, heavy strike, multistrike, melee physical damage, and faster attacks is about the best combo I can run, at least within the capabilities of item mana leech, and I've tried everything. We get a +2 melee range in the skill tree which can't hurt either for this approach.

Some folks enjoy the melee slash support with double strike or infernal blow, etc., as well.

Thanks for the update.

As you can see in the guide, the level 60 build went straight for Precise Interception + Weapon Artistry.

Ondar's is important, but possibly only essential in act 3 merciless and maps. You should get it right after level 60 or so.
