What life leech gem do you have supporting your molten shell?

Maybe it's just a personal preference, but I prefer leap strike over shield charge for mobility. Is there any particular reason you picked shield charge over leap strike?
Shield charge would have been great for pvp except for the fact that every once and awhile your character glitches and keeps missing.
interesting, might give this a whirl
Is your 90% physical damage reduction purely from armor, or were you also including the endurance charges?
Is Blood Magic really worth it for this build? You have access to plenty of int and mana regen nodes, aswell as reduced mana costs etc.

Leap has an animation/activation time. Shield charge lets you move instantly.

As far as I know, there is only 1 life leech gem.

It's instant. Leap Slam takes way too long to cast (uses attack speed, which you don't boost).

Right now, it's 86% from Armor (including Molten Shell) and 4% from the charges (which are active 99.99% of the time). With decent gear, you'll be sitting at 90% from armor alone.

Yes, you have an infinite healthpool available due to mass regeneration and life leech. Mana regeneration is just too slow imo.

been playing this build all day and it's a lot of fun so far.
One little question, did you take the resist/HP rewards from the bandit leader quest or the bonus stats?
