Needing tips for new 1.3 tree, take a look plz

This is the tree i have came up with so far for patch 1.3, i am using a 5l morahi, mings heart ring and the rest is rares with high armor, life, resists, physical dmg. I run ground slam only and switch to heavy strike on boss fights, for aurus i want to choose between herald of ash, hatred, and either determination or vitality. I also run vaal haste and blood rage, cwdt setup with ec-ic-id. For mobility i use basic leap slam setup with culling strike. For bandits i helped oak on all, i also go for endurance charges in the tree too cuz i like to be tanky in some situations with end charge on melee stun. I'm just looking for tips and suggestions on how my tree is setup, from more experienced players. thanks for taking a look here is the link to the tree below. (edited the original tree out)

Tree doesn't look good.

No crit -> take Resolute Technique
120% life -> good luck with a 2hander
120 points spent, but helped 3 bandits -> how's that going to work out?

All these elemental nodes look like a waste of points, samge goes for the overall pathing.
You spend more nodes than necessary to connect your desired clusters.
Example: if you take the strength node left of "Unwavering Stance", you can save three skillpoints south of "Warrior's Blood".

Here's a 105 point tree with 200% life and more organized pathing:

well i went back and added res tech, it was suppose to have that ofc i dont use crit, and im 2 weeks into poe so i didnt know how many points i can get with helping all 3 bandits, so i guess its 117 instead? checking ur tree out right now, thx. oh and i was told the elemental buffs are great on ground slam, as it deals all types of damage if u look at the skill itself.

It deals whatever damage you stack on your gear and whatever auras you use.
But that doesn't make it a great idea to focus on elemental damage passives.

Build for 100-110 points (level 80-93).
Build for a skilltree you may actually get to use.
Only the most elitist no-life players ever make it to level 100.
It literally takes forever in highest level content (that you will not even have access to) to grind your way up to 100.

thx 4 that tip, so wat auras would u run? id like to run 3 if i can.
Hatred, Herald of Ash + a 60% defensive one (Grace/Determination).
Then you have to use Blood Magic Gem in all your skills.

Or:
Herald of Ash + one Aura
Or:
Two Auras
Then you can use mana leech on gear to support your attack.

I've done all of it, it's all ok.

ok i like the points ur making, and this is exactly the kind of help i wanted, ty 4 ur input. i have a 5l morahi and run ground slam, added fire dmg, added melee dmg, faster attacks, and multi strike in the last socket. will at any point is it possible to run 3 auras with this tree, using reduced mana gem ofc for auras, and mana leech for ground slam? also at 105 passive points at wat level will i have all 105 points? i helped 3 bandits. would versatility help with that? i could really use the 20 dex 20 int from it too.

120 points = lvl 100 with no bandits.
117 points = lvl 100 with 3 bandits.
...
105 points = Lvl 85 no bandits, 88 with 3 bandits.

You can MAYBE (but I doubt it) run three auras with this tree and still use mana, but not 60+60+25%. Not with such low intelligence.
60+40+25% could work, with the 40% aura being a "purity of xyz".
But I'm not sure that's worth it.

well i was thinking or my 3rd aura being vitality, for the high rep life, id rather run determination but its not looking possible. wat u think of taking one of the gems outa my morahi for blood magic? then jus running the 3 auras i want to run? im on a very low budget right now, but have managed to 75 all my resists even chaos, hit 3k life, 11k dmg, 5.2k armor and even score a 5l morahi and mings heart ring with only 3 ex, cuz i took a huge risk on a 1 ex morahi that had 2 sockets, and got super lucky with jew orbs and fuses, the morahi is well rolled too with 242% phys dmg.

Vitality is nonsense, as long as you haven't taken all the regen nodes in the tree.
You skipped several of them, so better take them over wasting 30-40% of your mana.

3k life is too low.
The rest of the stats is dependant on your life total (as you have to reduce damage to skill into life), so further information is not interesting.
