[3.5] Say_Ten's Melee Shadow - Murder Everything Cheaply

"

gnorbert17 เขียน:

Hi there. I want to tell you I really enjoy this build as my first character in the game. It's been fun since the beginning, but it's even better after BoR. Currently I'm almost finished with act 3 in merciless, and almost everything was a breeze (except some breaches or rogue exile encounters, but oh well). I guess I'll see how things turn out later in those atlas maps (or whatever they're called).

I have some questions though. First thing is, what's your final verdict on Might and Influence? It sounds good to use another damage support (like Added Fire) instead of Splash, but M&I deals only off-hand splash damage, which is a lot less (and there's the smaller AOE as well).

Second thing is, is it really worth running the CWDT + Immortal Call setup? The duration is less than a second, it doesn't seem too much to me... I've read other setups like CWDT + Ice Spear + Power Charge on Crit + Crit Chance, or CWDT + Blade Vortex + Curse on Hit + Curse, and they sound interesting as well. What're your thoughts on this?

thanks for the feedback!

i was like the MaI jewel. i was playing SSF so my DPS was a little beat but i think it is worth it. should probably try one on standard but i am lazy and taking a break from games right now.

CWDT is up to you. i like how it protects me from being two shot quickly. spells won't do enough damage so you really need to pick something that's defensive outright or a curse...just anything but a spell strictly for damage. artic breath is a good example of a spell that is defensive due to it's chilling AOE.

Hey Say_ten, I really like your build concept! I just want to know if you've finished all endgame content, and how much the entire build cost? I'm probably going to make this my next character after I finish my current one

2 points ... is there a possibility to build from Scion and take Vaal Pact ?? And also, replacing Claws with Dagguers greatly undermines the build?

Started playing again after taking a long break. I opted to spec into your build from a viper strike build. I know my gear needs some love. Any suggestions on where to start? I've only been messing around on T4 & below maps with your build. I've only died a few times, which was operator error. Like I stated I know my gear needs some work. Just not sure where I should begin? Any assistance will be appreciated.
