Yo, I tested and will do something like this: LVL1 buy 2hand sword, after that you go 2h axes, splitting steel, chance to bleed, on lvl 4 you add onslaught. Also lvl 4 ancstral prot, link probably with maim lvl 8. You can do splitting steel till 12, where you get shattering steel and lvl 28 you swap to bladestorm > mele phys > brutality (38) > imaple (31 library). Didn't rly lvl past A5, but I think that bladestorm setup should get you to maps. Also tree is identical, just swap 1h nodes for 2h.

Auras probably blood and sand, flesh and stone, with impale support (31) drop flesh and stone and get dread banner and pride?

EDIT: Dont rly like how slow I feel with 2H even with blood rage, but I guess it's better than recipe upgrading 2 one hands insted of 1 2H.

Thank you! Will try to start the same way.
Is the Leveling Tree updated? Looks different from the cheap tree.

Levelling section will remain outdated for a while simpyl because I dont have the time right now. With that said our skill tree is identical to last league so even if it says 3.13 it still works 1:1

Do you have a recommended skill tree for leveling with 2h slams that doesn't pull too far off this tree? Regrets can get a bit pricey.

What aura setup do you recommend pre getting access to enlightenment? I was planning to drop flesh and stone for herald of purity until I can afford it, but I'm worried the lack of blind might be too much.


Skill tree would be near identical, just swap the 1h nodes for 2h nodes and swap all crit nodes for warcry nodes instead.

https://pastebin.com/ZRzewhAx - Something like this should get you to maps fairly quickly. Earthquake, Earthshatter and Ground Slam should all be solid but I think Ground Slam especially if you find a Vaal version during campaign.

As for auras either Herald of Purity or a higher level Precision works just fine, it depends on how much accuracy you have available. Flesh and Stone should not be used before Enlighten 3.


That pastebin appears to be broken T_T
New blood magic/Arrogance support does not work with leap slam, right?
Edit: Got it, use lifetap

how do they interact?

Blood stance maims nearby enemies, Maim support increases the damage they take.

I'm just wondering...thought about introducing the new Corrupting Fever gem into the build? It should work great with Cyclone...
why arrogance on leap slam and not lifetap?
I've noticed I'm still doing more damage with Terminus Est, and according to POB I still do 10-20k more DPS with Terminus. At what point do you recommend swapping to two one handers with the Scaeva + foil? Granted I haven't taken many of the end game skill points for dual wielding. I guess I'll just play around in PoE until it out scales.
