Level with sunder and whatever highest DPS applicable weapon you can find/afford. Buy a goldrim and 4-link it asap. Get move speed on your boots. Use Warlord's Mark on your Blasphemy until around level 70. Use at least one quicksilver flask, maybe two, until you can reliably shield charge faster than you can run.
It's tough for me to give good advice to brand new players because I've been playing for 5 years and I don't remember what isn't obvious when you're new. The other day someone PMed me asking why their damage is so low after switching to DP, and it took me a while looking at their character before I realized they hadn't leveled up a DP gem while leveling, and it was level 1 while they were 56.
That kind of stuff is second nature for old players; unless it's brought to my attention I don't really think about it.
ty for the input :) really appreciated that!I have another question doe, should we kill all the bandits? im using the path building to check ur build (standard version)

It´s not for killing them. But the first shot of the Barrage makes you invulnerable for a short duration so you cant get hit by the rest of the shots. I always thought we all run IC just for this reason...

I´m not OP, but I think Alira is best and lategame you can respec to 2 points so you get a Jewel with better stats.

I've recommended Alira, because I think her bonuses are worth 2 points, but eramir is also a solid choice.

I got what you were going for, but I've run cwdt+ic for many leagues and it's never saved me from porcupine packs. Even when you're running it, if you dive into a pack and kill them all at the same time, you get destroyed. I don't think the game ticks fast enough to protect you from all but one.
That said, if you feel it helps you in this specific situation, you could keep a level 1 cwdt and a level 3 IC in your stash/weapon swap and socket it into the spell totem and increased duration sockets (normally for wither totem) just to kill porcupine packs when their maps come up.

Yo, just an update on my slightly adapted dual curse version of your updated build. I've managed to do deathless runs on 3/4 guardians, able to completely facetank guardians/izaro no probs. (working on getting a Hydra map for testing & for shaper.. haven't been able to play much the past 3 days since work). Still haven't gotten my full nodes for curse effect in passive tree, but I figure it'll be even more effective by then. Running Assassin's Mark + Enfeeble for my curses.
I still believe there's huge room for improvement for my gear. With the results I've been getting so far in lategame, I believe this build easily has the potential to clear all content.

I'm changing haste to poacher's mark for frenzy charges and using a CWDT - immortal - phase run - increased duration setup, so I'll be using the windscream boots instead of changing that ev/max health cluster.
I'm also going to go 2 left from warriors blood, by taking the last 2 points from ev/max health cluster. To get +15% all elemental resists for devoto's devotion or if i can think of a better helm. But I like the 20% move speed and chaos resist
Also thinking about going for the other curse node and getting heretic's veil
please weigh in on my ideas
edit: nevermind I don't like the frenzy charge phase run setup so ill be changing poachers mark to another curse.

+1 curse corruption from amulet, the gear setup that I listed is primarily for bossing/uber lab. For my farming gear, I swap out one of the rings for a doedre's, and swap out the +1 curse amulet for bisco's.

Exhausted portals dying to Phoenix, but I think I know the fight now. Should be able to clear him next time I get the map.

I used rise of the phoenix shield, enfeeble and artic armour. Facetanked him, pretty easy mods though.
