Starting 2H Sweep/Glacial Hammer build - tips

Well after my first arc scion , ill try to build Mara 2H sweep/glacial hammer (mybe leap also, will see), which is from what i read definetly not common.

Do yo have some tips, what to take for sure, what to avoid ?

And anyone knows, why both skills can use staffs, while not 2H swords ?
Because i want to build it around the 2 main skills, i can use only 2H staff, or 2H maces.




1) now what is the difference between increased attack speed, and increased melee attack speed ?
im thinking about clarity/hatred or determintaion (both 60% reserved :( auras, and CDWT + molten shell + IC

2) And will multistrike work with sweep or glacial hammer ?
Im thinking sweep/GH + faster attacks + melee physical damage + multistrike....

3) Is accuracy working with melee 2H ? (regarding skill tree yes)

4) exist a gem , life on hit ? havent seen that one...


EDIT: seems noone is playing this. So ill try.

Oh wow, I made the exact same build a while back and posted up a guide. I think it should be here
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1215611 , this might be what you're looking for.

1. Both attack speeds are the same

2. Multistrike works yes

3. Accuracy works yes. You don't need accuracy if you go Resolute Technique. If you want to go crit, you need accuracy nodes.

4. There is a Life gain on hit gem, which will work quite well with Sweep.
