[3.1] GLADIATOR 1H+Shield Max Block&Spell Block Tank + a BoR version
|
has anyone tried blade flurry with this?
| |
" i tested blade flurry on my varunastra block build, in my opinion reave is better. You should go a crit build with blade flurry. | |
" I tested it out a little with an old standard character with a free respec that was using Ice Crash. Used exactly the same spec but just swapped mace nodes for sword nodes, grabbed the highest phys dps sword i could find for 1c and used the same gem setup and was killing quicker than Ice Crash. Unfortunately having already tried out blade flurry with assassin and inquisitor it just felt too slow but if you like tanky characters it could be pretty good with some tweaks to the spec/gear/gems and maybe some dps flasks to help with bosses and tougher rares. "You want it to be one way, but it's the other way"

I'm coming back to PoE after a long time and these Ascendancy classes are all new to me. I was a Marauder tank last time I played. I read up on your build for him, and after the nerfs I saw you suggested going Berserker over the Juggernaut.
I also saw that you preferred the Duelist's Gladiator over the Juggernaut. Would that still hold up now against the Berserker? It's been a long time now and I'm quite out of touch with all these new things. I'm not really worried about as much damage as I can do. I just want to be able to stand there and take as much punishment as possible, and whatever helps me do that the most is where I'll go. | |
" In that case, you probably want Gladiator. Berserker will give you a bit more damage, and although he'll have less block chance, he does sort of compensate for that with a lot of leech. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995

" I've already started the Duelist since I have a full passive reset from whenever I played last, so if I wanted to swap to Marauder I could. I see you have a few 6L skills listed, am I to pick one to slot in my armor or is there some way I'm to utilize them all? Also, in your passive skills you show as taking Iron Reflexes, but in your 52-77 for leveling tree's you don't. Should I not take that skill at all? Or take it near the end? Thanks for the advice and build suggestions. | |
" You cannot use more than 1 6-link skill in a build with 1-handed weapons. The only item that can have 6 sockets, and therefore 6 links, is your chest. Take Iron Reflexes much later, and ONLY if you have hybrid evasion+armour gear. If you have pure armour, it's pointless. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995
