As far as I understand this build implies quite high budget? What to do if I want to follow this path but I'm noob?

There is a safer build with more life nodes and no abyssus. if you want to test reave, you should start it this way.
My first builds used Infernal blow or cyclone. To learn melee playstile, marauder, duelist builds are more beginner friendly. earthquake for example.

End yes. It takes a high budget. you use lot of uniques on gear, so you need really good jeweller stuff to get life and capped resis.

so, what would you recommend? i still want to play shadow, i like rogues :D but what build is more noob-friendly?

I got to lvl 89 now. 4k life 31k dps in town. 4.7k evasion, 14% dr.

The only changes from my previous post is arctic armour instead of grace and enfeeble.

I've done up to T12 maps. However bosses seems o be a problem. I sometimes get 1 shot. Especially in a party.

Tried normal Atziri for the 1st time.. I was able to reach the entrance with 1 death. And I got to the 3rd phase of her.. then I got 1 shoted every time i went back..Seems either not to have enough dmg or enough survivability. So fail. Did not expect that.

Is this build not viable for Uber without acuity and mirrored dagger?

The only problem with this build is the survivability, the clear speed is great, it you can't afford getting touched by even a rare mob.
Uber one shots almost everything, so acuity won't help, and mirrored dagger is overkill.

So what are you saying is that my defensive stats are fine, but my damage is not there yet in order to allow me to clear fast enough without getting killed? today I got my first gems to 20% quality. and after 500 fusings still no 6L. Prob I will need a few more lvls as I have not yet taken the extra Frenzy/Power charges in the passive tree. Are those better than a rare damage jewel?

No, I am saying this build is probably not exactly uber viable.
It is simply too squishy, but I don't have the depth for this build yet, so you should still ask fiqst.
Your jewels should invest more into %life, as the damage is already high enough, and I would say going for charges are more efficient then trying to find good jewels. and even then you can still respec when you need to.
