may I ask how can you get 100% chance for impale? Or actually, you don't?

Of course you need 100% chance to impale. Anything less is a waste. Gem (anomalous), watcher's eye, tree, dread banner, cluster jewels. There are several sources to get you there.

Hello, thanks for the nice guide and build.

Does the speed (or type) of the sword matter? or in the end what matters is just the physical dps?

When you calculate the DPS the speed is factored in. Faster swords will give you a faster leap slam though.

Sorry if this was in the guide and I missed it but what should our life pool be at around 70? I'm on semi-decent gear and only at 3.7k HP, granted I'm just about to pick up some more life nodes but that is far off from the proposed 7k HP, is that at end-game level 90 with all life nodes allocated?

Thanks for the guide, wicked tanky so far!

Gear below, advice and opinions are welcomed. Perhaps I didn't get as much life as I needed on my gear...

Spoiler

I can't answer that because it depends entirely on your gear. At level 95 you should have more than 7K with endgame gear (I have 7,6K). Your gear is pretty decent but you've basically avoided almost all the life nodes. Also levels give you some flat life too.

I also fixed both PoBs because I somehow managed to upload them without a helmet. I'm surprised no one mentioned that.

Hi dude, first of all wanted to say. Great guide !!! Only had 1 question. Could I include Perforate in this build ?? For Single target situations. Love the ability was wondering if it could work with this. Keep up the good work.

I am new to this build but I think you should be able to sub perforate and bladestorm out and play with both, see which one you like better!

It should work. We don't scale bladestrom's duration so you won't lose anything. I don't know if it's a better skill though but sure you can try it. The supports should work too.

Gotcha, I was wondering though, if it was possible to run them both at the same time, bladestorm for aoe situations and Perforate for more single target, I'm sorry if it's a stupid question, I'm pretty new. If I'm not mistaken a problem with my idea would be that with dual-wield we don't have two 6 link items so we can rly only afford 1 dmg ability. But could my idea work with a 2-hander ? Or would it be really bad ?

I've used this build before, I was wondering how you feel about swapping to cyclone with it. Most glad cyclone builds have sword/shield, and I'm curious how viable it would be with sword/sword and using this tree/gear. Going well so far, any suggestions on what you would change?

Using a two handed weapon would be a lot worse. It would also require a lot of changes. If you want to try it go ahead but you won't like the result. Your other option is to switch gems for single/clear. It's not fun but it's the only way.

I would feel very bad :P
Cyclone is a channeling skill. Different tree, different supports. If you want to make the necessary changes then sure, it would work but cyclone really benefits from the range of two handed weapons so I don't believe dual wielding would end up on top. I suppose you could use prismatic eclipse with white sockets but damage would be bad. Anyway if you want to take that route then invest in some channeling nodes and use the proper supports.

Lol I'll stick with BS. I think I've just hit a dmg wall (about to buy a savior), and cyclone is my security blanket. GL this league!

Thank you for all the insight man, sincerely appreciate it. I only have 1 last question and I'll get out of your hair for good :DDD. Simply put would this build work well without big changes with any other skill other than Bladestorm ? I like Bladestorm and I will use it following the guide exactly for the foreseeable future. But was wondering if mixing things up from time to time was an option. So just wanted to figure out if there are any other abilities that would fit well with this setup something like Blade Flurry, Lacerate, etc. (maybe not a 100% as good as bladestorm but like 90% or something along those lines). Just to keep things fresh. Once again thanks for all the help, I promise I won't spam you with questions further ;D
