but EE does not trigger if you do not deal direct damage. (ancestral bond = no dmg)

I use lightning trap to trigger the effect of ee and it works just fine.

Aah yeah ofcourse, you are absolutely right.
got confused cause i couldnt make it work.. but that was because i also wanted the skill to curse on hit.

I found a vall lightning trap early on, works wonders! You basically just use LT anyways for bosses or hard rare mobs only, so vaal leaves shocking ground and has 8 projectiles, perfect for a cheap gear single slot :)

Any updates for the new 1.3 skilltree?

I've added Pre1.3 skill tree. Probably, will be changed with the 1.3 release.
For now almost all the same.

wonderful, 90% more defenses from shield is interesting. Does this include every defensive stat a shield has?

When I click links from the first post for pre1.3, I got an absolutely empty skill tree. =( Update them please.

Links works fine, you need to copy&paste them into any 1.3 planner like PoESkillTree or poebuilder.

With Nerfs to blocking what do you think about not spending the 6 points on the only shield nodes you are getting now in 1.3 and instead running the Searing Touch staff for much more DPS?

And then you could spend those 6 points going and getting barbarism or maybe sentinal?

With that in mind I'll most probably go dual 1-h wands or a searing touch (RNG owes me one!!), which will in the end be the perfect solutions.

For the 1 handers, one is for firetrap - chance ignite - prolif where the other one is for our searing bond - inc burning - resistance or fire pene.

Will be quite my plan

would this skill tree be more viable if you were to use say searing touch?
