[1.0.0] Facebreaker/shield build adjusted for release changes

Hey all,

I had this facebreaker build before release that just stacks life/ar/ev and includes Resolute Technique and Iron Reflexes, and ran Determination/Purity/Hatred on mana + Grace on life. Since FB builds don't really require any points spent in damage nodes (I'm doing 25.5k dps with 5 link infernal blow on chest + abyssus helmet), I thought it would be a good toon to turn into a 3 aura user by getting both of the big reduced mana reserved nodes resulting in 31% reduction. This is basically just a simple reworking of nodes after playing with the calc for 15 minutes.

I managed to come out with almost exactly the same amount of life/ar/ev as pre-patch, and I can still run 3 auras! Booya! I run Determination + Hatred + Haste. For ele weakness maps I would swap in Purity instead of Haste as it doesn't add a whole lot of DPS. I like Haste for the 3rd aura just cause after the changes it seems like no one will ever run it, and I thought it would be cool to provide haste for map groups, but it could be replaced by Grace just as easily - whatever floats your boat.

Usually fb is paired with high/max block. I only see 5% increased block, don't think you can take many hits the way your tree is set up

first you don't need all those dex/int node, second 50% block is more than enough, third don't follow a 120 point guide...

this is my spec:http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgQAAdwB5wJxBLMFLRQgFE0ZLhoyGjgbyBv6Jd8n7SmlMZ4yCTWSNug62ECgQzFGaUd-SshN2E3jTipPfVBHUFBRYFRJVw1YY1ivWfNeE18_YEthIWVNZp5qO2xGbmluqnB9cmxyqXTteA1673zZgFaBb4M4hNmE74x2jM-QVZkrnYCePJ65ns2fy6IApBmmV6cwp4SoGKluq8WsWayqtfK2QbndvYG-ir6nwBrG2NIh1I_ZYeLq51LsOO8O73zwH_Iv8932SPe--tL-jw==

i have a lev 83 facebreaker/cyclone, even with medium gear i can do almost any maps mod

Yeah I noticed that too. This was just a quick proof of concept (auras). Trade out life/ar/ev nodes for block or w/e as you see fit, I probably will too.
