So, as a learning process, i tried to improve the tree. But i am not experienced, so it's probably wrong, but i want to learn why. I took the same amount of nodes (93).

Now if i substract all the bonuses you get from each node, this is what is left:

You have:
Int +10
0,4% of attack damage leeched as life
0,4% of attack damage leeched as mana

Mine has:
Dex +10
Str +10
Enemies cannot leech from you
8% chance to avoid elemental ailments
+5% life
+18% armor (or another +2% life)

To be honest...i feel like there's more gained in my tree...

Not sure if this works, but i think this is the link to my tree

You need INT for concentrated effect. Every bit on the tree saves you a lot of chaos on gear.
You need the mana leech, gear with mana leech is expensive and it takes a slot.

Dex/Str is not needed for us (at least not 10)
Enemies can't leech is only fun in PVP.
8% chance to avoid elemental effects doesn't really do a thing.

Also you deleted the whole life wheel.

The only two nodes that are optional are the two for "Cloth and Chain". Those are to ease the prices on gear. If you are at maximum resistances you can specc out of these and go for Bloodless or Thick Skin for the life on those nodes. But the armor of Cloth and Chain is more worth, in my eyes.

In the end, you can play the game as you want and alter the tree to your likes. I played around a lot too, but this tree is what works best for my gameplay. If you feel like you survive better with those nodes, go for it :)

No, i am sticking to your build. I am just trying to understand the game better, and this build, every aspect. I now understand your reasoning better.
The INT is needed to level up the gems to max (INT 111 needed for level 20).

Thanks again for your answer.

no problem :)
Also, it's always nice to have some input on ideas. I bet my ass that there are trees that are better than this. I just couldn't make out anything by myself that would have any different or better aspect and some things are just personal preference like the cloth and chain thingy.

Keep on rocking that atlas :)

I'm curious about Kaom's Roots do they need to have "Grants level 14 Haste skill" or its not important ?

The haste is really nice for maps with elemental reflect, when you have to disable hatred. Else it's just the cheapest pair I found at that moment but I can really recommend it.

Hey, I must say that this build is amazing. Great league starter, awesome progress and fun to play. It's not even funny how absurd is that for only like 50c I was able to beat t15 easily, but I have a little problem. The problem is investment. I was just expecting that I'll have bad luck again and will have to grind all the currency hard, but as I see I wasn't right. I was rly lucky this season and I just don't know what to do with all the currency and other builds seem to be boring for me. So I want to ask you, if you can advise me some best in slot pieces. Thank you in advance.

Well, stuff like steel rings with a T1 flat physical damage roll and on one ring maybe the elder mod of warlords mark on hit.

450+ physical DPS main hand preferbly with 1 phys as extra elemental damage mod

any 1 hand off hand weapon with at least 20% attack speed + 2 phys as extra elemental damage mods

Jewels of all kind with at least 3 damage mods that are in favor for us like axe/melee/phys damage or attack speed.

You can easily waste 100+ ex if you want to go nuts.

Look at my character again, please, what should I change?
DPS in the Pob shows 228k total
I do not want to change the ax Soul taker ,because it is very comfortable to play with him.

Regarding equipment, i would like to summarize what was said and maybe add some suggestions found in other, maybe Akuma can comment on what is wrong with this list:

(just in case prizes change a lot, these prices were posted about 2 weeks into season)

Armor
5 chaos: 5L Astral Plate with some Life and Resistance
100+ chaos: 5L Belly of the Beast
600+ chaos: 6L Belly of the Beast

Axe
35 chaos: 350+ pDPS axe
250+ chaos: 400+ pDPS axe
1000+ chaos: 450+ pDPS axe

For the rest i didn't work out prices, there are too much variables.
I guess in general try to get as much +x Maximum Life as you can, while trying to keep your res at max. Besides that, you try to improve attack and Intelligence (needed to get Concentrated Effect to level 20).

Rings
Steel rings
+x physical damage to attack
+x Maximum life
+x% to Elemental Resistance
+x to Intelligence

Amulet
Lapis Amulet (for Int)
+x to Intelligence
+x Maximum life
+x% to Elemental Resistance

Gloves
Spiked Gloves
+x% Increased Melee damage
+x Maximum life
+x% to Elemental Resistance
+x% attack speed
+x physical damage to attack
high armour

Belt
+x Maximum life
+x% to Elemental Resistance
+x% attack speed
+x physical damage to attack
Maybe a Belt of the Deceiver?

Helmet
+x Maximum life
+x% to Elemental Resistance
High Armour
Maybe Intelligence if the other items were lacking

Jewels
This build has 2 Jewel slots
+7% life
+x% physical damage
+x% attack speed
+x% to Elemental Resistance

Flasks
1. Atziri's Promise
2. Lion's Roar
3. Taste of Hate
4. Instant life recovery, stops bleeding (Seething Divine Flask of Staunching)
5. ???

Am i missing information, are there mistakes?

For what stats on the jewels to look for ?
is this a good jewel for this build ?
