[2.2] [Video] The Iron Reave - 100k DPS Crit Duel Wield Block Iron Reflex Reaver

Hey there, would be cool if you could update the "levelling" trees
Also, tried running the build on HC (made it to lvl62 and died to vaal boss lol), the lack of hp and squishiness in general was annoying as hell. Definitely gonna try doing this build again though, it was quite a fun ride :)

Its 160% HP + Jewels, but yes its low for a Melee in HC but can´t get much more on the right side of the tree.

Happy to hear you had fun with it while it lasted :)

As i said before, I really dig this build! So fast and so fun!

I am a little bit confused about the whirling blades though. I use WB+FA+Fortify+Bloodmagic, but what about reduced mana?

Well tbh my lifepool is not that big yet due to my more than shitty equip, which is why I need to pop flasks traveling longer distances with WB. Or am I doing something wrong?

Edit: forget about it...just skilled the last life reg node and its all fine xD but still: do you use BM or RM?

I used BM + Reduced Mana.

Use whatever you feel like and works for you.

ok but what did you leave out? Fortify or Faster attacks? They both seem so vital to me.

i did not use FA

Hey,

So as I first posted here, I really really enjoyed your build so I decided to try reave again in the new league.
This time I tried it with shadow, so I used another build and I really need to compliment you on your build. You wrote it with really much detail and much information. The gear section helped out alot when I started and also later on.
The new build I tried didn't had all this stuff so I just came back to yours, because it's really just that great.

So because you asked how the other ascendancy classes worked out, I can't really recommend the shadow route. I went with daggers this time around and the your sword route worked out way better. My Gear is not on point at the moment and I'm just doing tier ~5 maps atm, but I feel like in the last league it the duelist and sword route payed off faster and I was able to do more damage with worse gear.

I think I do more crit damage right now, but with yours I got more raw damage after all.

Did you check out the Shadow Tree i posted? Its with Swords too and uses Assassin Poison nodes instead of Crit nodes and gets the same life total as my Duelist version.

And happy to hear that my guide helped so much :)

Died at 67 (PHC) in merc dried lake to a perandus

Rerolled the build, currently lvl 80 in PHC averaging 160m/hr in xp (wearing an abyssus), peaked at 200m/hr for a few hours before I ran out of T4/T5 maps

Great build 10/10

Very happy to hear that its working so well in HC!

Did you go with Gladiator Ascendancy?
