Although i realise you focus heavily on defense in your build. the premise of all these ailments like bleed & poison rely heavily on having decent base phys dmg and from the looks of it this build barely benefits of all these degen double dipping mechanics. You got the the defense aspects spot on so keep with that but you need to create enough base dmg to benefit on a larger scale as you will end up as the guy just opening doors in maps as the damage is no where near it should be for a balanced build.

Love the mechanics and hope to see a more evolved and streamlined skilltree that suits the dps mechanics you make use of. Btw you could drop varunastra and affected skill nodes with a high dmg base dmg weapon instead to make your scaling more efficient.

Varunastra is the only weapon that allow you to use WB with EQ. Even if you drop it for any other one-handed weapon, current pathing is far from weapon clusters between Duelist and Marauder.
I am using 281 DPS Varunastra and i have 12k tooltip atm (i think i can get 1-2k with 20/20 gems). My duration = APS, which means i am chain my aftershocks. With lion roar and totem i always knockback enemies, which leads to higher bleed damage. Also any damage after first bleed is 30% higher because Gladiator node. Plus rapid decay buff to both bleed and poison. Plus vulnerability. I think overall thats around 50k, which is not that bad, considering how many defense this build gives. I am only scared of dot and oneshots (even tho its up to me to avoid them).

After getting to 78% block and spell block we are allready pretty tanky but thats not enough.
We run Enfeeble-Blasphemy which will reduce total damage income by 30%, while also getting less hit and less crit damage.

Hi, just want to say, great build. Been using it since yesterday and haven't died once to 62 so far. I'm new to block builds and was wondering where the 78% chance to block comes from. Right now I have all the block nodes in the tree and wearing the anvil and Aegis, just missing 4% block chance in the Ascendancy, but my block chance right now is only 63%, so with the 4% from the Ascendancy nodes it will only go to 67%. Am I missing something? Thanks for any help.
