Help with 1.2 tree: ST/Aegis Hybrid AR/ES cycloner

Using legacy ST/Aegis along with strides + corrupted stone. Hybrid AR/ES build (so no BoR). Sitting on around 4.1K HP, 1.5K ES, 23K cyclone dps.

Need help with tree optimizations to see if I've missed some obvious pathing/nodes in 1.2! Thanks!

Create full build with gear, gems and bandits in poebuilder. It's hard to check the tree without it.

BTW, my build with BoR goes now with 6,1k life, ~650ES and 20k dps (non legacy ST) on level 92. You need much more HP/ES points and should have better dps with legacy ST.

Sounds good, Aegis won't load into poebuilder for some reason so I'll update link when that's fixed.
Yes, something is broken, can't add unique helm and shield.


This is the build i'm planing to use:

I will respect Lust for Carnage life leech nodes after I get life leech % on rings and invest those 4 points in HP.
What's your block/spell block right now?
I forgot to mention, I have corrupted Lazhwar with 4% block, I have 75% block and 56% spell block. There's no more spell block on tree (there is but it's too far).
Ok cool just checking. I had 75/65 block/spell block before 1.2 and was just wondering if that 56% spell block now is the new norm.

That's what I have too, so maybe I'll roll your build on another marauder that I have and see how it rolls.

I'm guessing you roll hatred and determination and just let your gear pick up the ES?
Usual set up is Hatred and Haste, some of Purity auras when needed. Determination or Grace are not really needed. I have ~8k armour and that's good enough.
ES is mostly from Rainbowstride and rings, I'm trying to find some hybrid ES gloves for more ES.
Also, I'm wearing Meginord's Girdle heavy belt for dps. I have 19600 dps on Cyclone with Hatred up. Haste give me about 1,5k more dps.

We had before node with something like 12% of block chance applied as spell block at top left part of tree but it's now at Witch start, so too far to get.


Aegis/BoR/ST now can have bit more life and dps (bit less armour) if you start as Duelist.

You mind posting a quick duelist tree?
It's same, you just don't take first 4 Marauder's point and swap them for point's in Scion life circle.

It's not a big difference, not worth starting a new char, it's just bit better choice for new league.
