I think his English is also a problem. Just use google translate, the results are funny, but you can understand the main point in most cases.

For those interested, I will post an updated version of the build as soon as the new passive tree is released, and then a further definite update after the expansion patch, when I'll be able to test out the new tree a bit.

Since Chris said on reddit (I think it was Chris) that there'll be more flat HP per level for all characters in the 1.2 expansion, this build might get even more tanky or also become more DPS-heavy with the same tankiness :) I am very eager to see the full patch notes.
I'm also considering buying the Grandmaster Supporter Pack to import this char into the unique map :) 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995

"One thing that constrains a lot of otherwise great builds is mana cost, so we have rethought mana costs from first principles. Almost every skill is affected." HYPE! Patch 1.2 just might solve the mana problems of this build, especially considering it will be much more easier to get mana leech on gear now since you can craft it at the masters' benches. Really looking forward to the expansion! 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995

Since a ton of people have been asking me if this build works with Bringer of Rain, I've decided to add a section only for that. The answer is: yes, it works.
Your gear has to be something like this then:
Spoiler
BoR 4-link: Infernal Blow - Melee Splash - Multistrike - Weapon Elemental Damage (for single target DPS, swap melee splash with added fire; if you don't have Soul Taker, use either mana leech or blood magic gem instead of weapon elemental damage) It is a lot more harder to get resistances, so you can't use Meginord's belt, you have to use a tri-res one. Your rings have less chance of having flat physical as well, so you lose some DPS and life on your gear. The good thing of using a BoR is that you don't have to buy/craft a 6-link chest and that you get 15% extra block, which is insanely good for this build, and which means you can lose some points from block nodes to put them elsewhere. Unfortunately, since with a BoR, your armour sucks, you more or less have to go for Iron Reflexes, so you don't gain actually any extra nodes from a BoR. The passive tree for BoR (you'd have 74% block with this tree) would look like this at level 92: You take the shield resist nodes over at the templar because it helps a lot with maxing your resists. So, overall, using a BoR instead of a chest and normal helmet means: PROS: - More block chance (74%) - Cheaper to gear (since no 6L) - DPS remains almost the same CONS: - Forced to take Iron Reflexes (IR) - Less armour even with IR - Less life - Harder to cap resists 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995 Ice Crash Crit Staff AKA "The Shaterring Karui": https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1289037 Tanky Block+AR+EV Ranger Crit Reave Dagger/Claw: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1301888 Última edição por ComradeSerge#4604 em 13 de ago de 2014 06:00:38

My god, getting the new tree right will be so hard. There are SOOO many block nodes now! It seems to me this build will now be able to get max block (75%) easily.
I'll post a version of the tree when I'm done min-maxing it. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995

Do you have any form of life leech?
|
|
Unfortunately, no, since the previous 2% life leech node which was at the marauder area was changed into 4 nodes. It is now inefficient to get this node (for 4 nodes, you'd get 3% life leech of physical damage). However, if you feel you really need it, you can easily get it, since it's right next to the life nodes with +1 max fire resistance (left of marauder start).
