Melee crit build questions

Do you take the same DMG nodes you take with RT if you go for crits ? Or it's more about multiplying the dmg ? Right now I got almost all the Axe dmg and dualwield dmg nodes and speed ( minus the accuracy nodes ) but I want to switch to try a dualwield crit build.

I am not sure of how much dmg nodes should I discard in order to keep the max block and get enough crit and multiplier nodes, any hint will be much appreciated !

Thanks

Usually crit builds go for max crit chance/multi over vanilla damage nodes. There is no wrong way to do it, but having say 15% crit is not very effective.
Dual wield crit is nice. I'm in the process of tuning my wings of entropy spec. 2h nodes and axe nodes, along with 2h crit and dual wield crit nodes. I'm at 19k dual strike and 10k cyclone dps. 43% block and some spell block. No multiplier though, aside from a little on my items. http://youtu.be/qYAcQStmGU8

I haven't tried a build like this or planned one, but I have been toying with the idea of an axe build starting from Templar. I threw together a plan in a couple of minutesthat might work, but its low on defense, so you may want to toy with it some:

About 374% crit chance and 90% multiplier as well as 3 extra power charges, but it only has 200% life or so. It goes by EB as well if that interests you. Just something I thought might get you started on your theory-crafting.
