Official Blender Post! Lets theory craft for 1.2! 123k Cleave DPS!

Do you still run Cast on Damage Taken?

It has been nerfed since a recent patch:
1.0.1
The level requirement of gems augmented by Cast on Damage Taken may not exceed the level requirement of the Cast on Damage Taken gem.

Just wanted to thank OP and various contributors in this thread for all the information.

I checked out beta a long time ago and didn't give PoE enough time to get fun... came back recently and started a blender build and am having a blast.

I got my duelist blender to 61... main problem I am having is getting good drops for certain gear slots. I don't really have the 'currency' yet to trade for good items. But my luck and currency situation will, no doubt, improve.

cheers!

Check poe.xyz frequently and use filters to find exactly what you need. Personally I always check "B/o only", "Online only" boxes so I can contact the seller right away.

I'm in the mid 60's so far and I bought all my gear for approx. 10 chaos or so.
8k armor with Grace, 8.5k Dual Strike DPS with splash in 5L chest, around 12k single target, res capped. Enough for doing normal 66-67 maps in almost "faceroll" style.
For e.g. I bought 240 DPS axe for 3 chaos yesterday, right now similar weapon goes for 1.5 exa, but there's no guarantee that in 10 minutes someone won't drop uber-gun in the shop for 1 alch ^^


Multistrike and Cast when damage taken should be on top of the beginner's shopping list, I think.

i was thinking of making this from the scion starting point. i made a passive skill tree based on what I've partially know im still just a newbie so any feedbacks, advice, comments, and criticsm would be very much appreciated.

BTW this is a non-RT build. thanks in advance.

I'm doing all with this build.

I killed oak in Cruel :/ is it a huge mistake ?

Ok but do you leave the Cast on Damage Taken level 1 and keep the other gems under level 31 or do you level theCast on Damage Taken gem as well?

Also, i tried it with Endurance Charge and Decoy Totem, both level 1, last night and only Endurance Cast was being cast, i did not get any totem even when i was taking damage on purpose. Is there something else to know for multiple procs?

i use two CoDT gems now and i like it so far, haven't done any high level maps yet but its seems to work when i get in sticky situation. This is my current setup ( am still considering 3rd gem for low level CoDT so there is Leap Slam in there for now):
