THE BUILD HAS BEEN UPDATED FOR PATCH 1.3.

Keynotes:

- The build still deals tons of damage, that remains unchanged.
- The build is still very tanky, but not AS tanky as before the block changes.

I would still suggest you guys watch my old 1.2 video to see the build in action and to get a better understanding of how it works. The new skill-trees have been uploaded in this post.

If you notice any typos or mistakes, please let me know - I am updating a lot of builds today and things are a little hectic ;D

So basically you get rid of almost all additional block chances (5% additional). I guess it's the price to pay if we want to go acro/phase acro.

Unfortunately yes, this opens up for more points to spend on life, damage or mitigation though.

what about its viability in the new league now that block and crit is nerfed?

Where can I find the 1.3 tree? I only see old ones. Please link

You need to open the skill-tree URLs in the offline 1.3 skill-tree calculator to be able to open them. OR you can wait 4 hours until the new skill-trees go live on the servers :)

Thank you very much. I followed you on Twitch and Its nice to see that gamers care and help out gamers around them, much appreciated. I realised something when I was watching your stream and Its that your build had 114 Points while the build you added to these forums have 113 Points.

I am just curious, is the Reave build that you have added to these forums the "real" build or you have changed it a bit? I am curious since Im planing on Learning to play with this kind of build and later on change it a bit but I need the "real" deal to start with so I can understand better, if you know what I mean?

Once again, much appreciated for the fast replys. Wish you a nice weekend!

Hi, if the block chance has been nerfed, isn't better to build a dual dagger Ranger ? At least we have less block chance (none) but a crazy DPS.

Using a very similar build but from a Scion start, and also going to be picking up the 12% reduced aura nodes to run grace/hatred/ash for Bloodlines.

Thanks !

So let me preface this by stating that this is the first time I've actually given PoE a legitimate try. I found your build on YouTube and absolutely loved the way it looked so I'm giving it a shot in Hardcore with some buddies.

As such, I apologize if I'm asking silly questions! I'm still learning the beginner ropes...

How do you stay up to date with the Intelligence requirement of this build when you level up Reave? I'm only level 24, but already stuck with a Reave gem at level 5 because I'm lacking intelligence.

Even looking at your final 114 point build, it looks like only 2 of the nodes give Intelligence so that's only +20 from passives.

In line with this question, how are you able to use items like your dagger which require 114 int? I looked through all of your equipped gear and I just don't know how you got there.

I took some of this build (thanks), mixed it with Hegemoney's beta reave crit build, then made it HC viable. In 2.0 -------> you have to have physical damage reduction to get anywhere as a melee . By keeping my physical damage reduction to around 70% I am able to take a very large hit and still live. This is crucial in tempest where you can get 100% crit chance tempests that give mobs the ability to one shot you quite easily. Sometimes iron reflexes gets a bad wrap, yet if you do NOT use acrobatics you can stack vast amounts of evasion...I have over 14K.

I do not see how this build would be viable now that cast on damage taken has been changed. Furthermore, I wanted to run three heralds like hege's build, yet grace gives too much extra damage reduction and is a must in hc if your using iron reflexes.
