Maruder - High HP + Regeneration HP +1H and Sheld

Hi, I have played PoE sinsce 2 days, i have got Maruder at lvl 7 now and I wanna to build him as a Tank so I used skills under HP and HP regen, also I would use 1H sword and shield. The Keystone I used is Blood Magic and Resolute Tehnique, also I think about Vaal Pact or Iron Grip. And mz question is what do zou think about this?

This is a similar build to what I'm attempting. I'm sure it's not optimal, I'm no theorycrafter, but I'm liking the sword and board, life regenerating meat shield idea. Looking forward to comments.
Thanks for advice and cann anyone tell me tha mana reduce skills are working with Blood Magic?

EDIT

I change some passives:
- cash critical strike reduction to get more life from potions
- get 50 more dexterity but reduce by 10 strength and 10 intelligence

Block (for spells): 12%

Shield-Def: 80%

AllRes: 40%

Strength: 240
Intelligence: 60
Dexterity: 0


I think, getting nodes to increase damage is not what you want playing a marauder with high hp and reg.
What do you think about this build?
@tra you wasted a lot of nodes when going to the north part of the tree, think about everything in "how many +10's" does it take to achieve what I am looking for.. I would strive for going down into where the duelist tree is, kind of take over the west through south, there are plenty of HP nodes, Shield block, and resists.
Ok, i made some another improvements and I go more closer to Duelist

I'm gonna use Blood Magic supports for my abilities so I can use my mana pool to run 4 auras being Determination, Vitality, Hatred and Purity. This takes up almost my whole mana pool.

Frenzy is going to be my single target and Lightning Strike or Cleave will be for AoE.

Regen in this game is not very useful, it would take 10% regen per second to equal what you get from 2% life leach.

Don't waste points on dealing damage, because outside of Normal, survival is what matters, not 20% faster kills.

You went for sword, when you should actually be going for Mace with all that strength.

Endurance charges + enduring cry and Warlord's mark will make your characters much tougher than 20% more block rate.
Ok, another update from me I delete all health regenerationn and shield skills without that i useing now, and take some points in Endurance Charge.
