Skill Tree has been completely Revamped in this update.
Two new 8 passive physical large cluster jewels have been added which contain 
Strike Leader, 
Battle-Hardened and Grim Oath. We have allocated Strike Leader and Battle-Hardened and are skipping Grim Oath while just taking the jewel sockets. Having Grim Oath is very important as only this node will allow you to skip 3 points. These clusters are made using the new Refracting Fog Currency, first we fracture Strike Leader then we reroll till we find the one with physical damage in implicit then craft from there.
If you cant find or afford that just use one with Strike Leader, 
Gladiator's Fortitude and another node which you can just skip on a shield cluster.
Flesh and Flame Jewels for 
War of Attrition have been replaced with 
Fortitude jewels which gives permanent fortification.
Now the build has two rare jewels which provide alot of Critical Strike Multiplier, increased maximum life and mana leech. Make sure to get mana leech on one of these jewels to avoid mana problems.
A Watcher's eye is also there which grants critical strike multiplier while affected by 
Precision and increased physical damage while affected by 
Pride.
Now a massive thread of hope has also been socketed near 
Frenetic, with which we are allocating 
Perfectionist, 
Coordination and most importantly the keystone Lethe Shade.
One of the Masteries have also been converted with Rune Graft of the Wrap which can only be seen in POB alongside any tattoos used in build.
