[2.5] Block Gladiator build - need help v2 -

Starting idea was:
Basic Idea came from Sovyn's Lazy Pally build but I wanted to take the Duelist rout (100% block to spell block ). I took a close look on his build and figured I can invest more points by leaving out Witchland. I also restated playing a bit back and took a : [2.5 Video Guide] Beginner's Earthquake, Tanky/High DPS Build Guide! [HC/SC Viable] by Nerdbro. Last night I tried to merge the two.

Spoiler
Things I would like to achieve:
-Using a shield and building around blocking mechanic, gathering the most block chance as I can
-Using everything in my disposal to autopilot most of the skills like casting when blocking and getting a cast when hit
-1 main attack 1 movement gem (supported as much as I can ofc)
- rest of the slots are buffs
-Bleeding mechanic looks nice
-Progressing as far as I can

I know I probably made a lot of mistakes, but that is why I'm here on the forums. Any advice would come in handy (if its constructing ofc.).

Weapons: Either sword or Axe (Jack Axe Im lookin at ya)
Armor: Armor based tankyness with Lioneyes Remorse maybe, lots of health pls

Skill gems: Not decided , but I would not like to focus on them in the passive tree.

Any advice is welcome!
I also tought about going Scion but not convinced.

After a month of thinking:

Sorry for the lack of response. I realized I was out of currency and had bad map farmers so I had to level up something quick!

NOW , back to work an theorizing!

I made a few changes in the original idea.

Block stays at max some life regen + Poachers.
All counter skills ( tempest shield got questionable, so as Molten)
Cyclone with Empire's Grasp and we pull the mobs while bleeding that way bleeding gives 60% increased dps.
BoR gets us Endurance, Poachers gets us Frenzy. Fortify on every Shield Charge.

Knockback chance maxed:
Spoiler
20/20q Knockback gem +54%
Fendig +18%
4x6% jewels +24% - These come laughably cheap cause ppl think they are useless
Total /96% should be enough with cyclone


Block chance calculation from mas_mariano's build:
Spoiler
How we reach 78% Max Block Chance:
+30% from shield in off hand ( I think this is the max we can get)
+8% from The Anvil.
+6% from Bringer of Rain.
+8% from Painforged Ascendancy point (when you get hit)
+3% from Tempest Shield Spell
+6% from Ascedancy points.
+17% from Passive Skill Tree.

Shield is still up for debate.


Uniques:
- Soul Taker 40c-1ex
- Anvil 1-2 c
- BoR 2-3c (that way we loose the chest)
- Empire grasp3-4 c
- Surrender of Ezomyte 60-100c

That said all that remains to get HP and resistances are : 2 rings, belt, boots (maybe shield).

Gems:
Spoiler

BoR:Cyclone - Knockback - Added Fire - WED
Soul Taker: Shield charge - Faster attack - Fortify
Ezymot Shield: Vengeance - Curse on Hit - Poachers Mark
Gloves: CWDT (14) - Immortal Call - Increased Duration - Tempes Shield / Molten shell
Boots: Riposte + Haste + Hatred + Flame Golem
Better ideas accepted


Flask:

2 HP

I was considering a similar adaptation of Sovyn's build. Glad to see you are working on it. Any progress since your first post?
you're not the only one ive been working on one since last patch

current stuff

thousand teeth teemu: the surrender is a better option but im poor :(

the anvil: classic

decent belt,boots,rings you know the stuff that brings resists and hp

planned stuff

bringer of rain or decent helmet and armour

doryani's fist or jack the axe

doryani's fist: really nice added lightning damage and its a lot but it also means no weapon

jack the axe: high dmg bleed and allows for 2 passive gems that trigger on block

if there is no lvl then i mean lvl 20/20q if not higher

boots:
cast when damage taken lvl 1 - immortal call lvl 2 - tempest shield lvl 2 - increased duration

shield:
with doryani's(2 options):
reckoning - fortify - stone golem

reckoning - curse on hit - ...a curse

with weapon: herald of ash - hatred - enlighten

gloves:
with doryani's: molten shell - iron will - culling strike - less duration

with weapon: reckoning - fortify - vengeance -riposte

weapon(if you have one):
stone golem - shield charge - faster attacks

chest(if you dont have BoR):

with doryani's(2 options):
molten shell - iron will - culling strike - less duration - increased area of effect - empower

shield charge - faster attacks - culling strike - lightning penetration - added lightning damage - empower (im not sure about this)

with weapon:
attack skill - increased melee damage - added fire damage - increased elemental damge with weapons - culling strike support - fortify(honestly tough put in this whatever you want)

helmet:
BoR: shield charge - culling strike - addedfire damage - fortify (again choose yourself)

rare helmet: whatever is missing you put it there


skill tree(im not sure about it):

doryanis fist minimum skill tree:
Passive skill tree build

jack the axe skill tree:
Passive skill tree build

nvm about doryani's fist just go ack the axe combined with bringer of rain
Look at this thread: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1647240

Its a blocking, bleeding gladiator blocking with Soul Taker. And it's a great, cheap build.

Do your build a favor and pick up Unwavering Stance.
