In what order should I give the talents?
You mean skills? This is not a beginner build. I can help you to understand how I leveled but it’s not the easiest way. Most people suggest that using Blackwater Coctail until level 94. You can also use Vire’s Might etc. I can’t explain all steps you should do because there is no single/right way. I suggest you do some reading about game or choose a beginner guide to level as your first character.

Yes, I mean skills. I asked the order for this build because I want to do this, I already have a level 100 Witchblade character and I want to do this build when I finish it.
I guess you didn’t understand my point. There are more efficient ways to level this class combination by using other skills. My build is a DW Melee version, if you want to level as melee or even dual-wield melee it won’t be that efficient.
But if this is what you want. Use your points to your main skill. Fire Strike. Max FS first, then max Explosive Strike. give 11/16 Vindictive flame and max Flame Touched. Go Oathkeeper side and max smite. Then spend your points into Oathkeeper mastery bar till you get Guardians RR and Divine Mandate. Then do the same with Demo side; get Blast Shield, Thermite Mine and Brimstone. It’s not that hard, you focus on the skill you deal damage with and take supports skill that improve your damage.

The hardest part is to find gear, like farm Kilrian weapons. Easiest just to blast through the game to level 94 with BWC, canister and VM by using RektByProtoss speedleveling method.

You gave the vindictive flame 8 points, not 16, and I want to make this structure from scratch, so I asked their rankings, whether I will transfer items to this structure, I’ll do it from the beginning. bro, can you tell me exactly how many attribute points we have to give?
Are you really sure we are on the same page here? I suggested you how to level. End-game build is there in the OP. Those are different things. You can’t just apply end-game building detail from the level 1. Click the grimtools link on the above and copy it that’s all. You don’t need my instructions to see how many points I gaved in Vindictive Flame in end-game build. It’s there! You can very well ask how to level it as you did and I answered as clear as I could and you still asking me weird questions.
You can re-spec/reset any skill, attribute or devotion point in any time you want or need. There are spirit guides who helps you for devotions and skills resetting. You can use Tonic of Reshaping to reset attributes. Tonic of Clarity to reset Devotions.
You don’t need to do everything perfectly just from the start. Level as I said or differently doesn’t matter, after you have the complete gear and hit the level 94 you can reset everything and set it up properly.
I don’t want to be rude but we are clearly having miscommunication and I’m trying my guts to explain things to you. If you have problems with gears, I can suggest alternatives, if you ask which gears you need while leveling I can guide you etc but you’re asking me these basic things about the game as you never played it before. You’re clearly a beginner so you should first learn the game mechanics; read guides. This is not a build to make from scratch. There are such builds and I suggest you make one of those first till you learn the game but if you’re insisting on this one; It’s all there on the link, click it, examine it then ask me if you can’t figure something out. How many attribute points spended on where is really doesn’t matter. Give all into physique doesn’t matter.
Edit: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/D2pBwE1Z Here if you really wanna level as DW fire melee, you should be like this at level 55 or something. You can only start dual-wielding at level 25 with Bladesworn relic. Kilrian Skullbreakers are best for DW Firestrike, you can farm them in Arkovian Undercity but it’s in act 2 so you need to figure out thing for yourself until then. Buy items from vendors. Use what you get from the ground.

It is true that we live in miscommunication because I do not speak English, I am not an American or English, I am Turkish. I’m writing to you using translation, sorry if I disturbed you, but I’m not a beginner, I’m already a 100 Level Ultimate Witchblade character and I’m busy finishing it now, but here’s what I don’t understand; Why can’t this build be build from scratch? Also I asked my questions on the last link you posted, I hope there is no problem. I want to make this build from scratch, thank you for helping, sorry if I bothered you. I asked you so many questions that I want to do the same as the structure, I’m a perfectionist so I may have bored you a little.
It’s okay, there are a lot of people who aren’t from USA or Britain here and I’m not either. I try to simplify my sentences so translator won’t get confused. I presume, it already translates GD/arpg words wrongly so you don’t get my point.
If you wanna make a build from scratch; you need to seperate which item is good, which is bad for you and you should be able to adjust your build depending on the situation at that level.
This applies to any build, not just for this one. So if you can do these, you shouldn’t ask me about attribute points or skill points.
Having one finished build doesn’t make you an informed player.
You can level this build with Blackwater Coctail skill. You don’t have to level-up with dual-wielding fire melee as the finished build. You level with easier skills and after you reached 94, you can reset everything and copy the end-game character stats.
So play as it suits you. Do what you want. Improvise. Learn by failing. After you reached level 94, you can reset everything and copy my character.
You’re right, I’m new to the game I’m learning new things, thank you so much for your help. Finally, I want to ask something; What does it mean to level with the Blackwater Coctail skill? You said as straight shot?
passive skills?
What passive skills? There are three of them already. You have to take them. It’s not an option or matter of choice. You have to invest skill points into flame touched and vindictive flame and presence of virtue in all Fire Shieldbreaker builds.
Can’t you read the skill tooltips at all? I mean, Flame Touched provides you fire damage. It means if you are playing fire build. You have to take it. Because it supports your damage.

Builds in this game are highly item dependent. A build can in most of the cases not be separated from its items. Like this one for instance.
If you have to ask in what order to put skills and attributes for this build, I’d say you are still a beginner.
On youtube Rektbyprotoss has a guide for how to level a demolitionist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhBjO80zK1Q&list=PL-7HuL5PyGEKhbkCa1JmuICYzL9fpA72V&index=2 which should take you far.
If you are interested in play DW melee from scratch basically, there are tons of those guides here with more suitable masteries Beginner build guides Compendium (for AoM + FG expansions) not saying that DW melee shieldbreaker from scratch is terrible, but there are better options for beginners.

Updated the build, added a completely new version but didn’t want to remove the old ones so adjusted the thread accordingly.
Build is updated, deleted the old bloated thread since I completely reworked the build.

Yep, a good choice for more damage though fixing acid and cold&lightning resist might require different affixes on pants and different serenity completion bonus.
