Guide
Leveling will of course be gear dependent and depending on which gear and gems you have, you can choose which way you wish to branch off at the forks of the passive tree. However, grab Resolute Technique asap. Stick to amulets and rings that give you mana regen until you have enough regen that you need not depend on them anymore. Don't bother with the Inner Blessing nodes until later on when you can comfortably run 6-7 auras.Health flasks with armor bonus are incredibly helpful as well as a granite flask with the same property. You will basically be using quick silver for in between mob packs and shield bash to strategically place yourself in mob packs.
Certain gem sets are optional. Eg Enduring Cry is another great aid to your survivability.
This passive tree is currently at lvl 83 with nothing but a tun of health nodes to access for those higher levels :)
