Path of Exile

Alright a ton of wasted points in your 65 build. First off, the 15% crit nodes are trash. They're not worth taking unless you have nothing else to take, and you have plenty left to take DPS wise. The crit damage nodes are also trash. Also why would you go through the accuracy nodes as a Scion when there's so many better nodes. Why would you go to IR using the longest way when there's a faster way next to it also giving access to a 18%life node.

Quick fix, using the same amount of points:
Passive Skill Tree - Path of Exile

I actually removed some life nodes near the scion and on the way to IR, but I think it's about the same life total/better. If not, you can just grab more, it's a few points less. I removed a lot of inefficient stuff. Life still seems low to me as a HC player, but should be fine for SC(it's 149% with the points I put, can easily grab a ton more though without any filler).

What I think I'd go for endgame:
Passive Skill Tree - Path of Exile

Thanks, been so long since I played this and the passive tree is A LOT different. Didn't really study it too long was just trying to come up with something decent. Pyros' tree has a lot less wasted points in it, though I'm curious why go to iron reflexes that way and skip the Leather and Steel node off to the left? is 24% Armor and Evasion rating not a big deal?

It's not a big deal no, it's ok but not important. You could go left if you want, the health node is a lot stronger though. Also you do get some evasion+armor that you hadn't picked in your build. If you go for Leather and Steel, you have 4points of fillers to get to IR, if you go right side, only 2points of filler, plus one more for the big health node. You really don't need that much evasion/armor% anyway, and you already get tons from the double evasion big node that Scion has easy access to. But even that I wouldn't take until 60 ish if that, you'll get most of the armor you need from Grace alone without any evasion%.

I'm not sure where you see wasted points otherwise?

Dex nodes aren't really wasted. You end up with 110dex in this build, you actually need 153 dex to run a max level Grace. If you use LMP or GMP(and you will as FP), you need about 110. Faster Projectiles the same. You will need very high dex if you want to use Evasion items, which you will because you have a lot of evasion % and not a lot of armor%, for example an Assassin's Garb chest requires 183dex to wear. Sure you could get dex on your gear, but having all your dex from passives is actually nice. It is however obviously the worst stats for an IR caster build since it does literally nothing other than reqs.
