As i wanted to try out one of the BLS builds, i decided to stick with your tree because it sounds interesting to use MOM. In theory, we can proft from a lot of nice synergies that support that playstyle. As you mentioned, beserker gets 1% mana leech (which is huge) for free. Besides a high life pool with VP there are nearly no other forms of mitigation. When travelling to EO, MoM is in a nice place, so that travelling to EO is not that much wasted.

However, i decided to try a slightly different skill tree than yours:

1) I grabbed quick recovery. While the increases in life are not that effective, it gives us also a slight amount of mana regen, wich is nice for MoM. Travelling there is already done.

2) I spend two points into primal spirit. Once again, mana regen is good to have and it also gives us 20 strength, which makes the two points not wasted THAT much :). Together with quick recovery i have a good amount of mana regen, even after receiving hard hits i can still sustain mana costs of Molten Strike most of the time.

3) I am using a black sun crest. Not only it gives us a good amount of strength, it also gives +1 to socketed gems. With a level 3 enlighten (which is only about 20 chaos when already corrupted) that goes up to level 4 in the helmet and frees up some additional mana. Once again, that synergizes well with MoM. I'm using Blasphemy + Flammability and Herald of Ash.

Here is the tree i plan to use:

Unfortunately it loses some jewel sockets above your tree and i also skipped acrobatics. However, i am only level 70 right now, so things might change.

This is the gear i am currently using:

This is far from being optimized yet, i just grabbed what was laying around.

I am still not sure about MoM and EO. In the end, it might be better to just use RT and skip the pathing to EO. hHat would free up a lot of passive points. It is very hard to get accuracy on gear. RT would make gearing that much easier...

Yeah, even with T1 Acc on my gloves i am not able to proc EO constantly, there are always some seconds without it. That means that i definitely need more acc on at least one, better on two of my rings and need to grab more skill points that also give %acc.

Without EO i would do something like this:

This would give me some options:

I would skip Heart of Oak and go for Unwavering instead. That would give a huge quality of life to the build. When there is no more need for Heart of Oak, i would travel along the right side of the tree. Acrobatics is now easy to pick, also it brings us near to Forces of nature. This would result in more penetration and also the +30 strength node can now be picked up. Unwavering brings us very close to Lava Lash. This is a very efficient notable, actually too good to bypass it.

Didn't made calculations with POB, but i am very sure that this tree would result in more consistent damage and it will be also a lot easier to gear for. But however, this would be a complete different build than this, which utilizes MoM. When picking up MoM, going for EO should be a nobrainer because of its efiicient pathing.
