[1.1.1] Dual Dagger CI. Restored for 1.1 and viable even after Vaal Pact nerf.

Inner force provides not only with DPS, but defence also (max resist, ES). In his Alpha Howl his Auras are 22 lvl, and those values multiplied by 1.3.

First of all thank you for an amazing build.

I have been trying to get a clawbuild to work with shadow and you guide surely made the basis for my wolverine build:

Utilizing the exact same mechanics but using claws (unique Essentia Sanguis eye gouger) instead of daggers. They are extremely cheap and awesome for high physical dps and boosting ES (+ giving ghost reaver which gives us one more talent – yay!)


Claws gives more regen, heavier attacks and some more accuracy, but will of course lack some crit.

I’m very curious as to what is you take on this?

About Inner Fire. After all my passive bonuses it gives me:
+750 Evasion
+260 Energy Shield
+8 all elemental resiastances
+1 max elemental resistance
+3K dps
My resistance flasks give me +13% to Max res instead of +10%
My speed and armour flasks also give 30% more.

I will add claw vs dagger analys later.

hey, i have a shadow on level 32 that is almost skilled like this, unfortunately i have killed all the bandits... so i guess im missing a power charge what should i do?

No, you don't. Bandit give different rewards for every difficulty.

You do not realise how huge these 'some' crits are.

If i take my build and change my 11 dagger nodes to 11 of your claw nodes, and also change my daggers to perfect Essentia Sanguis i will trade:
230% crit + 66% crit multiplier on 26% phys damage + 16% accuracy + 6% life leech.
This will make your crit chance 53% instead of my 90% and your dps 15K instead of 23K i have.
I have excel file that calculate my dps and i use it to see how much weapon upgrade will give me so i used it to calculate dps of my build if i change daggers to perfect Essentia Sanguis and dagger nodes to claw nodes.

So with your build you are trading 8K dps on 6% life leech + 300 max ES. You will also stun shock and freez 40% less offen. And i would like to remind you that each of my crits heal me to full es just with leech i get from blood rage.

As i told numerouse times if you go crit es claws you just get gimped version of dagger crit. I would say claws are weapon of choise for dw tank, not dps.

Excuse me , a wierd question.

Do you sell the equips u don't use anymore? I can't find the 500 ES shield chest piece.

Sold my 450 es long ago. Try Poe.xyz.is I'm sure you can find a chest there

I have a some questions.
1. Why do you invest so deep into templar tree? 11 points for 30 int, 10 dex, 21% elemental damage, 10% resistances, 8% AoE damage and 20% AoE radius. Perhaps, one should better take +40 int and +12% AoE radius in central area (5 points) and +4% AoE radius in Witch's area (1 point). That would release an extra 5 points. Are 5 points worth 10% resistances, 21% elemental damage, 4% AoE radius and 8% AoE damage? One can take +36% accuracy, +8% dagger damage, +20 dexterity and +20% critical strike chance for those extra 5 points (to cover your weak spot - lack of accuracy) You can even release then 1 point from +15% power charge duration (i doubt you need it, anyway). Or invest them somewhere else...
2. Why did you killed Oak (Cruel)? +12% melee damage should be worth one point, isn't it?

I invest so deep into Templar tree for 2 reasons. First i plan to get all aoe increase nodes on the tree. My next 5 points will go into aoe near conduit. Second, i plan to use discharge against phys reflect as i always have 12 charges floating around me. And it can use elem damage from templar.I would say that if you are not going to do any of this you do not need to go to Templar and conduit aoe nodes will be enough.
As to oak with this build I never in the position of just taking 8% dmg node for the node itself. I always reaching for some big node. So if I can use a point to take 18% flaying, why would I take 12% instead.
