I'm following your RT version of the build, but I don't know if this build will work without bringer of rain, or if it's an essential item for it. I have around 3 ex in currency, which will probably get bigger as I level and begin mapping. Shall I still continue with it? Or do you recommend to do a cheap build and when I can afford to buy the bringer of rain, then start this one?

The build survives just fine without bringer, bringer itself is just an extremely powerful endgame offensive/defensive piece.

Jforce any thoughts on Iron grip? it's 2 points away and for every 10str you have, you get 2% physical dmg increase (at least for me I have alot of strength).

Its only for projectile attacks with iron grip so it wouldnt benefit you at all :)

It says as well as melee attacks. My DPS went up from it :)

Read carefully, by default strength raises your physical melee attack damage. Iron Grip applies that damage to projectile attacks, for example Split Arrow or Spectral Throw. Reave is a melee attack and therefor Iron Grip won't do anything. Your damage went up cause your gems leveled or you swapped some gear, either way Iron Grip had nothing to do with it as it's wasted points if you're using a melee skill.

Yeah I took it out. Thanks!

posted here for you and in my main thread piece, gonna be streaming in just a minute.

any chance of getting the leving passive tree, like every 20 points or so

Why not try to get to the Spirit Raker circle? You get 12% Life Leech with claws, which seems pretty insane.
