If they nerf Facebreakers...

Facebreakers alongside with Aegis Aurora are the only truly viable melee builds that you can make atm .Not to say that there arent other good melee builds,but these 2 stand out the most with either really good damage (facebreaker) or defense (Aegis).
Nerfing either one would be a huge mistake.

Forgive me if I am wrong, I mean no offense. It's just typical "dps greed" althou you do have some impressive rings.



I can tank to good extent as long as I keep the charges up (frenzy and endurance).I got 15k armor, and with 5 endurance charges, I have 83% phy dmg reduction.

My res are 75(fire)/71(cold)/57(light)/-60%(chaos). When I have all 5 endurance charges up, my res are 75/75/75. The only thing I usually need to keep an eye on is phy reflect mobs (I am good enough not to get one-shotted, but I will eventually kill myself if I play around with them) and chaos mobs (I can any chaos melee mobs, but the range ones are usually the ones that I need to keep an eye on.



All in all, this is my best build I have had that gives me no issues in map. The rest have a lot more difficulty in lvl 66 maps. It is not perfect, but I am happy.


I am sorry but your gear suggest otherwise. You are covering cruel + 10,barely. Idk how you are covering 70+ that you speak about about. Even with 2 or even 3 diamond nodes you wouldn't cover 70+ unless you run purity and thats a different animal all together.

edit: plain and simple: I dont believe you man, sorry. I know you dont care but looking at your gear, you are at ~50ish at the best with 2 diamond nodes. I might be wrong, still, I like my build better. I dont need to work for anything. I dont need to gain charges or do anything. I just dont die and I cut through everything with one hand.

Before the endurance charges

With all charges up

I am not even running Purity.


Here is the passive tree showing how many res nodes I picked up. Most of them are from gears. I wonder if you counted correctly, and got penalty number correctly from cruel and merciless.






I am curious about your build since it looks like it is the best of the best from what I am seeing in your post. My build may not be perfect, but it rocks.

That is the reason why they nerf it - path of we hate melees.

- Why would you even mention nerfing a melee build before burning discharge/LowLifeRfSpork/EAQuillRain?

Because burning discharge/LowLifeRfSpork/EAQuillRain are not melee.

"
- EA Quill Rain can reach over 450,000DPS my EA Marauder can clear a lvl 74 map in 2 mins (no comment to ever nerf it)

Why would they nerf it? It's not melee.

"
- Discharge builds can 1 shot merc piety. (GGG_Henry was seen in global saying,"why would we nerf discharge?")

Again: Why would they nerf it? It's not melee.

- Melee finally has an outstanding build but you want to pretty much slap us all in the face by nerfing it.

Finally, it seems like you have understood their intention.

"
- More melee builds should be as strong as facebreaker builds.

How dare you say that? It's still path of we hate melees!

Has anyone ever calculated the actual DPS LA/Lioneye's does to a single monster in a pack? The tool tip only says what a single arrow does.

It splits into 3 arrows that hit targets and then chains 2 time for each arrow. That's 9 targets and up to 3 additional enemies near the target. That's 36 hits if I'm correct. What's a normal LA tool tip dps? Also with lvl/qty 20 LGoH that's 1944 life instantly.
