[2.2] Need Help for Blade Vortex Theory Craft

Hi Guys,

i want to try blade vortex in the new league and would like to get your opinion. Basically i have to decide between Shadow (Assassin) or Scion (thought about Pathfinder + Slayer). I created the corresponding skill trees. Feel free to leave comments. Please note that im not creating my own skill trees very often, so both of them can actually suck ^^

Scion

Ascendancy: Assassin

uses Acrobatics, less life than Scion variant, but more crit and offense stuff, no block ofc.

Items:
Maligaro's
Carcass Jack
Atziri's Step



I'll appreciate any comments about how to improve the trees and would like to get your opinion, which one could work better.

Note: I dont want to use Poison in any way.

You seem to lack a lot of life in your builds. Never go below 150%. Personally I prefer being above 180% life (depending of number of jewel slots.


Here's a quick tree (Assassin) just to maybe give you some inspiration:

I'm going blade vortex myself starting this league. Starting Shadow and Witch I prefer going CI / LL, though that can be hard early. So I havent really spent a lot of time doing life trees.


I suggest you watch Nugiyen on twitch.tv. He is doing a Blade Vortex Pathfinder in Alpha to test it out. He is a much better, experienced and smarter player than me, so you will probably learn a lot from watching.

yea, i always tend to build pretty much glass cannon. I create my builds for lvl 85, because it's easy to achieve. I dont know why you didnt skill any increased Duration nodes on your tree? IMO it's crucial for Blade Vortex to Keep the flow :D

Well i think I'll just create a Shadow and will adjust my tree a bit for mo life. I'll post it once it's done.
Oh sorry. The potency of will cluster should have been added.
