Improve my passive skill tree - LA/Frenzy/Evasion/Crit Ranger
|
Linked below is the passive skill tree for my ranger on standard (lvl 79 running 68 maps easily). My ranger on ambush is progressing (lvl 50) and I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions for improvements. I've looked at many of the guides and I'm not sure I've seen anyone with this skill tree although it covers similar ground to many builds (MaxBo is close but uses IR). This makes me nervous that I'll encounter issues or am missing optimizations.
I don't really have meaningful gear yet on ambush so it isn't worth posting my gear. My goal is to work into end game maps. I always play solo. Anything obviously wrong? I have all my respec points still available. I'm generally happy with evasion/Ondar's/Acro/Phase Acro. The occasional 1 shot doesn't bother me much. I haven't taken many (any?) increased evasion nodes. Will I be okay on evasion? I've clearly made the choice to pursue critical strike chance over running multiple auras. Good choice? Bad choice? Here's the build: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgIAAdEEfgW1DPIOSA-rEZYV8BnXGtshdiP2JDwk_SaVJ6kwcTB8MfoylDY9Nns51DpCOlg-z0k7SVFLeFFHVUtaSFptXvpf4WHiYqxrJG1sbXtv8nBScNV293fXfwJ_K3_Ghs6HGYhrjDaNfY2_j_qVBZXpnaOdqqCfoSKhpKJApcum4Kc0p1yn1Kp_qriv67EwtKO1SL3mwFHEosaiyqnUI9aK1p3ZxtwV3ajh2-OE51TndO4O7_DwQvT4-WP8q_7I EDIT: Somehow had the wrong link for the skill tree. Sorry about that. Thanks Last edited by Killer123#6827 on Apr 2, 2014, 4:54:03 PM

Don't take anything left to Thick Skin, put those points instead in the shadow tree: Haste, Mental Acuity, the 3 life nodes between, Assassination cluster, Mind drinker, Bloodthirst, the 3x8 life nodes, Written in Blood life cluster. That's the idea, and that's what are following maxboo, Omjak and others. It's more optimal as you get much more life and damage through higher crit chance.
For ondar's guilde / acro & phase acro, it's ok, you just need a good life to survive the occasional hit that goes through. Same for your choice regarding auras, just chose between grace and hatred based on the danger of the map (grace against phys reflect for example, to increase chance to evade through ondar's guile).

When two witches watch two watches, which witch watches which watch? If the witches watching watches watch the same watch while you watch which witch watches which watch, they switch watches; then, the watch switching witches watch which watch you watch. Watching witches watch watches is not for the faint of heart... |

Sorry, I had the link to the wrong skill tree. Now corrected.

Pressure points is much better than Arcing blows. Eventually go for the last 20% crit chance in assassination cluster, and maybe for Finesse through Heart of the Oak (which I'll take early). Other than than you will be fine with this tree, it's almost identical to maxboo's tree.
