[Mini-Guide] - Marauder 2x Axe
This is mine, I tried getting both Splitting Strikes (18% Increased Physical Damage) since they are the highest Notables followed by Cleaving which I also went for at 15%. My main goal was to include Iron Reflexes, Unwavering Stance, and Resolute Technique and then go for the highest phys damage increases along the way.
I am grateful to you for pointing out that dual wielding nodes are worse than axe ones since the axe one is effectively counted twice for both axes. I somehow did not realize that before and am now trying to change my build. I took the route to elemental damage at the last second because I saw you had that, but I am not sure how much it effects an axe dw build endgame wise. I might just opt to go for more dps or life nodes instead. Lastly, I'm still undecided on Blood Magic but I am leaning towards not wanting it. Any input would be great.

How far can you level Dual Strike? You don't have any dex nodes. Does your dex come from gear?

" Was wondering the same. Also aren't u a bit squishy? You didn't take that many hp nodes and after cruel would be hard? This seems fun gonna try it in the next few days! One more thing, can you please include which bandit rewards you took and which gems you are using. Thanks! Edit: Do u mind telling us whats ur level and difficulty?

I really enjoy the look of this build. Did some of my own theorizing and I feel like you could afford to lose some damage. So I dropped some of it for health nodes and all resistance. I know I shouldn't build 111 point builds but I can't help myself. :D
Here is a link to the build: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgEBAdwB5w6tE0wUIBRxF-EY2xkuGjgb-iECIWAn7Si1KaUqOCr2MBkwTzB1MfsyCTWGNug6UjqzOtg64UCgQapDnEp9TdhN404yUEdVqVW1VgRYr1nzWf5br10AYIhhUmRSZKNlp2eAZ6Bs9m7YcD5yqXTxdud4DXuMfNl99YN8hmCHKYd2iPGMdpBVlZuXtJrMnaqeuZ7Nn8ukGaZXpzCnhKgHqW6sWayqrLquk7Xyuc253b6KwBrBo8bY1I_dDd-_4driYeRR567qGOw47w7vTvIv9lX3Mve--Ov8xf6P |

Why take the "Reduced mana cost" skills? Doesn't Blood Magic negate those skills?
