Need some player knowledge on 3.1 ascendency choice for sunder.

thats the build that i plan on running. ive never made my own build so if you guys can critique it that would be great. i plan on running blood magic and it will be a pure phys/bleedsplosion build.

let me know what you guys think

You can look up, what the top players are doing, like for example:

https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/AlkaizerX/characters. He is playing HC, feel free to leave out a hp-node or two if you want (you will end up taking them anyway due to the lack of late-game-scaling ;))

the trees are fairly generic in most cases and viable for all sunder classes.

So the biggest mistakes in your tree are:

1) duelist-marauder connection - you miss some of the very best nodes by not doing the upper connection. Marauder area is VERY strong.

2) you go overboard on leech by spending 9 (!) points on it including the two travelpoints. You can pick one notable or two if you are fancy (two at lvl 82 surely is overkill) for the max. leech rate. 4.2% leech from the tree feels like an overkill to me.

3) bloodletting isn't that important - certainly not enough to waste all that travelpoints for it.

4) You should explore either the ranger or the templar area imo for attack speed / life.

P.S. So you want to run brutality sunder? Or just pure phys with some additional scaling from atziri's promise / essence worm-hatred? I don't know much about brutality sunder, but it certainly got changed with the new curse + witchfire brew rebalance, you should look this up, if you are going for the brutality version.
