I wouldn't suggest grabbing the 3 nodes for Steel Skin. For 2 points you can spec out of weapon elemental damage and into the 4 armor/ES nodes giving you 44% armor, 34% energy shield and 8 elemental resists.

There's 2 places where you can spend 4 points each for another 4% block chance. Grabbing both costs 8 points for 8% more block. Going from 33% to 41% blocks is probably a really big deal. Lvl 100 build might look something like:

(RRG) 3L - Leap Slam – Faster Attacks –Enduring Cry
(RRG) 3L Immortal Call – Increased Duration - Blood Rage

You can't run tempest shield and both auras together. Keep tempest shield up and choose either hatred or determination depending on what you need. In most groups you'll probably have hatred from someone else.

Help Oak x3

Helm – rare
Chest - rare
Gloves - rare
Boots - rare or rainbowstride
Belt – wurm’s molt then rare
Rings – rare
Ammy – carnage heart then maybe stone of lazhwar
Weapon – rare 1h mace with phys dmg, %dmg, atk speed, preferably –enemy stun threshold/leech
Shield – crest of perandus, then Lioneye’s Remorse, then Aegis Aurora (lol)

This build doesn't rely on many uniques. Be wary of uniques, because most offer crap in the way of resists. The more uniques you have, the fewer slots you'll be able to designate toward your resists, and therefore the more expensive the gear you'll need to be effective.

One slot that's worth running a unique is the amulet slot. Carnage Heart offers some much needed life leech and much needed int/dex. When you can run blood rage constantly and your dps is high enough that your leech is capped without it, you can swap out the carnage heart for a stone of lazhwar.

When searching for weapons, look for 1h maces under your buyout price, then sort by physical damage. You want the hardest hits possible to maximize your stun chance.

Stack life and resists on your gear, and don't forget chaos resist. Pure armor gear when possible. A high armor lioneye's remorse will provide ~250-300 hp, 70% block with passives/tempest shield, and roughly 5000 armor without determination and over 7500 with determination. A nearly perfect one can be picked up for less than one exalt. Aegis Aurora doesn't need massive amounts of ES to be awesome, so if you can afford it, go for it!

Wurm's Molt is a good choice for some easy mana leech, but its stats really suck otherwise. If you can pick up some leech on good resist gloves or rings, you can drop wurm's molt for a big boost to hp/resists at an affordable price.

The blood magic node makes leveling easier and lets you grab unwavering stance earlier. You should also consider using a heavy 2h mace like Geofri's Baptism. Once you've got a ~250 pdps 1h mace, you can make the switch out of the blood magic passive. I went for amplify asap, and now I'm heading down to the duelist endurance charge, unwavering stance, and stun mastery. Looking back on it, I probably should have gone for the other areas before amplify.

Other than warrior's blood, the other life regen nodes are just sort of quality of life choices for blood rage, so you don't need any of them until you start using blood rage.

Be careful not to over-level faster attacks, vulnerability, hatred, tempest shield or concentrated effect. You might as well leave them at lvl 1 until you have an idea what your endgame gear will look like.
