With Basic gear + The Devouring Diadem + Inpulsa I get about 537k DPS on Arc: https://pastebin.com/41ny7UeL
(I only changed the Level 90 Talent tree because I wasn't as competent with PoB when I started this)
So we have to give up the blasphemy setup. :( Sad Witch.
No! The Devouring Diadem enables the blasphemy setup without using any passives for it.
And before you get it you can just do CwDT instead of blasphemy and just use Wrath and Discipline as Auras.
To all people that want the CWDT and IC, what about if you drop the whirling blades setup and just use flame dash? Without fancy nodes and jewels, the whirling blades feel slow compared to flame dash. Well, I only use flame dash since I did in leveling and I think it became my favourite dash now.

My $.02 cents on WB ... I've considered dropping it too ... I have already moved it to be my alt movement skill. My reasons, 1) to get the benefit of the Fortify, you need to hit, which puts you into melee range and thus more danger, even if briefly. 2) Inside those memory maps, when they are collapsing, you can FD over the gaps. Of course Leap Slam is an answer to point 2. Just considering all of the options at this point ...

The added benefit of this for Synthesis is that you can cross the blue swirly stuff in memories with flame dash. You can't with whirling blades, at least not yet.
Sucks since I prefer whirling blades as a movement skill, but flame dash might be the better choice for this league at least.

+1 Exactly my thoughts.

I've been having a blast with this build last league, it handles enemy mobs well.
The addition of Lightning Spire Trap this time is really awesome! Putting all 3 on the bosses would shave like half their health or outright kill them!

The problem with just Flame Dash is the Cooldown. I don't know how you use Whirling Blades on the higher levels and/or with better gear, but I am only moving around with WB. Like 5-10% Running and 90-95% WB Spamming.
That is unfortunately not possible with Flame Dash... at least nobody figured a way out yet.
I've done many small changes yesterday to improve the build, with the main goal to eliminate weak points during the acts. It was a bigger change from the 3.5 to 3.6 setup this time, which is usually bound to come with some things to improve and constructive feedback is really important for me to find those things, so thanks to everyone who didn't resort to mindless bashing! As always, you can find all changes in the Changelog, please read through them and adapt if you're having issues.
Hey Enki,
Just wanted to thank you for spotting my mistakes. Following this tree, I'm back to 5.2K life and 840K dps, which I think it back to where things were!!
Now I'm torn, do I commit this passive tree for my L93 standard character to try and complete all the endgame content, or try the new 'latest and greatest' ES based setup....
