Don't recommend it for HC, at least not untill GGG does something to eliminate the desync.

Go for Sentinel node next on the passive tree, then get Berserking, after that start going for Golem's Blood cluster south of the duelist starting area. After that starts the stacking of block nodes.

As for gear, wait untill you get Sentinel, then you can see what resistances you need and how much, but getting an Aegis is a good choice.

Thanks for the advice. Btw, how much should I level the CwDT gem?

You don't, keep it at level 1 is fine.

Thanks for the build!

Level 39 atm , and more pieces waiting for me in chest. Impatient :)



By cons to be on before purchasing, Aegis is really what we can have better shield?

You update to 1.2 I guess?

thanks

Aegis is a great shield, theres no question about it, it's basically effective health you'll be gaining when you're blocking. But I've said it before, it's not needed, you can perform about just as good with a high block shield, specially Thousand Teeth or Cres of Perandus which have silly high block %.


And of course I'll update what's needed when new patch is out, I'll be doing most of new content on this character.

When you return to the progress:

I'm level 60 now,and I have not encountered any problems it based on your advice progress in passive :)

My stats level 60:



Level 62:



Gear level 60:



Gear level 62:



Thanks again ShakkaFL ;)

First glance over new passive tree shows Blood Drinker got moved or removed, it just means we have to use 3 points to go into the life leech cluster. But shouldnt be much problem since life got buffed and we can afford to drop a few life nodes.

Also +max all resistance nodes seem to be gone, so thats 2 points we can use elsewhere.

I'll post more updates later today when the official tree is out.
