Your build looks very nice, i was looking for a melee build but i wasn't really sure what to do and this looks fun since i never tried Sunder.

I took a look at your tree and planned my own for a Lvl. 91:

The tree focuses heavily on Bleeding and takes keystones related to it to help our single target damage.
I took the keystone "crimson dance" since our enemies will be knocked back on the lion's roar uptime meaning that it doesn't matter if they don't take increased damage while moving.

I also take 3 auras: Haste + Arctic Armour + Herald of Ash. This only works if you have Soul Taker as your weapon of choice, since both Sunder and Leap Slam (which i prefer over shield charge) have the tag "Melee" they don't require mana to work.

My setup for sunder would be:

Spoiler

Sunder
Multistrike
Chance for bleed (for the flat phys)
Faster attacks (to help with multistrike)
Concentrated effect
Ruthless

PS: I may be mistaken but i'm pretty sure that the tree from PoE Planner (the one op posted) it's outdated.

Build loves to drain mana very hard when leveling

This is very true. Be sure to keep a few mana flasks at hand! You can also disable an aura if you're feeling uncomfortable :)

I put a mana leech enchant on my axe and I could probably ditch my mana flask now, it's working pretty well to level.

Thanks for the guide, my first "serious" character was a largely self built sunder using two hander which I've enjoyed a lot but starting to hit a bit of a wall around T10, so I thought I'd change it up a bit, and am enjoying this very much - got through the first Lab at level 34 and to act four with no deaths or really even close calls, so thank you.

I did want to ask re the ascendancy, did you not take blood in the eyes due to the bleeding being more about making them explode? Cheers.

About the ascendancy, yes. But upon revisiting this build a couple of times, I've decided to opt into taking Blood in The Eyes since its way better than the block node since we're not going for max block in this build.

Thanks for the reply. So to confirm you're just switching out the block node for blood in the eyes? Would you change the order of taking the ascendancies at all now?

I'm amazed by quality/price ratio of this build. 87 atm, did uber ,atziri and T14 bosses, planning to make some gear investment for further content. Maybe changing axe to 6L unique and body to Kaom's, though it will require some tree changes for mana leech.

Current setup:

Very nice! You've reached heights I have not, even with a lvl 91 toon! Yeah, switching up to a 6-link 2h axe and swapping in for a Kaoms heart is a good choice, although it is at that point, a different build.
