Guide

Start up with using Cleave as ur aoe ability and double strike as ur single target ability. Getting Primal spirit in the start will help u out a lot if u are having mana isusues. Try to find a decent thrusting 1h sword and start using it with a evasion based shield. You should also find a viper strike gem that u can use later on.

When u reach lvl 19 u can start using double strike with melee splash. You can also add a added cold damage support gem if you can support the higher mana cost.
Start of with helping oak to get the extra health. At Act 3 normal you should be having atleast 800hp to keep on going. Remember to get your resists up before piety!

More will come...

Hey, cool start to the build. I enjoy crit based builds myself, not to be too nitpicky, but I saw an inefficiency with the tree, the dex node to the right of Pressure Points (crit mult talent by the Ranger side) can be taken out. Also, It may just be personal preference, but I took out the block/stun recovery node above Heart of Oak, and put it into the strength node above the main dex highway to Elusiveness (30% evasion). Then, I took out the 6/6/6 life nodes on the shadow side and put it into the 6/6/10 life nodes to the left of that strength node.
Anyway, cool start to the guide, hope to see it completed ~ Rae
