I've got a couple of questions-

Do you think that Prismatic Eclipse might be better replaced with Scaeva? I've got one of each atm and Scaeva is definitely pulling more weight dps wise.

Also, do you think Resolute Technique is necessary? I've dropped it for now and my dps shot up; even without it I'm currently at 100% to hit most mobs and 97% to hit evasive.

Well with PE you also get +16% block chance... according to PoB you might get a little more dps. An good option is Ichimonji. I guess with the reworked accuracy values you might be right with resolute technique. I don’t think that PoB shows the dps numbers correctly.

Hey so currently trying the build where i am at. Which is not far at the current moment. The build is more focused on blood and sand, flesh and stone, pride, dualwielding phys dmg? Is it possible for me to swap out the "main spell" to anything i'd like? Would like to test it out.

The build is not made for this or that spell is what i am asking

Not sure if I understand your question... this build is attack based. So if you want a main skill which is spell based I guess this not the right build for you.

What i am asking is: Is this build based on bladestorm / perforate / cyclone or can i chose a skill of my one

The build is designed to work with those skills but there also other ones which would work... tell me what skill you want to play and I can tell if it can work with this build.

Cast When Damage Taken (low level)
CWDT (lvl 1) + Immortal Call (lvl 3) + Enfeeble (lvl 5)

Are these the levels at which the gems should be held ?

Hm should I keep using dread banner+herald of purity as aura or drop it for the Pride? Pride seems to provide a lot more damage and for herald of purity I need items that provide INT.

hey, do you think your build would work with earthquake as its main attack skill?

Yes exactly... you want it low level so that it always proc when you get damage.

I used HoP and Banner for leveling and switched to Pride because I just think as soon as you use physical damage weapons.

Yes but you have to adapt it a bit... mainly weapons... I guess you want to axe or mace. You also need to adapt your skill tree.

Hello, thanks for the effort you are putting. I really like that you are going the block + Hemo gloves route since I was thinking exactly the same thing.

1) Why do you use Vengeance and not Riposte since you got so much block?

2) Does CWDT work well since you got so much block and you don't take damage often?

I'm thinking of going Block + Hemo for applying Curse but it's too soon to try (lvl 56 atm). Also I like Molten shell so I will invest in some armor too. Have you tried those?

Cheers
