So, I'm a bit confused. I see these builds scaling to ridiculous DPS, but I'm just not seeing quite how they get there. My Gladiator is currently lvl 81, and his defenses are finally working (added starkonja, darkray vectors, and dual scaeva's), but his DPS is pretty low. I know I need to finish levelling and adding qual to my gems and get a 6L (add conc effect), but it seems like I'm missing something for my DPS.

One thing that's particularly confusing is seeing people talk about offhand DPS not mattering for reave- but the reave description clearly says it alternates hands for hits. Is the description completely wrong, or did this change recently or??

Path of Building is showing me sitting @ 60k DPS currently. Ingame actually shows lower. I'm also seeing a fairly low chance to hit (85%) in-game, so I'm presuming I should be picking up some more acc (I've got 2 nodes to pick up 30% more acc immediately available).

Here's my current state- are there some things besides the obvious (pantheon unlocks, uber lab, gem levels and quality, and 6L) that I'm missing?

Also, I'm pretty darn poor at the moment- I haven't gotten a single exalt drop yet. I think overall currency, I can scrape together about 80c, which is what's holding up purchase of a 6L- I'm trying to hold out for an AR/EV piece with decent stats before I make the plunge.

If you are using an OH Scaeva, then it will lower your dps. reave wants to use the OH, but if you have something that isn't a claw, 1h sword, or dagger, then it won't. The in game tooltip will LOOK really low, cuz reave thinks you're "not using an OH"

well the guide is a bomb. could you improve the gears we should be looking for end game?
Like what chest gears and what weapons are good for the end game.

could you suggest some good foils. i like the reave animation with foils.

THANK you! I was wondering why everyone was talking about reave using MH only, now I get that it's dependent on what type of weapon you equip in your offhand. At the moment, the OH scaeva isn't really reducing my DPS, as I've got 2 equipped, both around 290 pDPS. From poe.trade, I'm looking at ~ 1 or 2 exalt to push into 350 pDPS range, and I don't have the orbs for a 6L yet, much less a 350+ pDPS weapon. In the meantime, I'm getting 70% global crit, 8% block, and leech/crit from the sockets from the scaevas. I presume I'm going to need a fairly exceptional MH to make switching out worthwhile. Now I can run some actual math on it. I'll also have to take another look at a sword/DW block node I was eyeing as well, to see if that would still work if my OH isn't a sword.

So is it really (mostly) just pushing up the pDPS of my MH weapon that will punch my damage up?

15-25c on a 6L chest? The decently statted chests I'm seeing range from 60c - 2ex. The chest I'm currently running 5L is 750 armor and evasion, 45 life (low) and 44 fire resist, and I'm fairly worried about dropping my defenses. Specifying 1k total armor + evasion, 40 FR and 6L shows me no armors at all below 60c including offline results.

Would you ever drop Hatred? Since frozen monsters cant give you bleed explosions, would you replace it with Herald of Ash or is that retarded? Using HoA could give you room for another aura like HoT.
