[1.0.6] CI Crit Dagger Shadow (30k DPS Flicker Ninja) [OB video up!]

Is it still worth following this build?As i heard that the owner had given up this build. :(

I was wondering about it tooo.... with the new es nodes waiting for some1 to update the new skill tree =D

No, the owner hasn't given up on this build.

The new tree would probably look very much the same, minus 4 of the ES nodes down the middle where the witch tree is located and instead placing them in the 4 spots after CI.

Thanks Anamaeus :)

The trees have actually already been updated. They were updated 1 minute after the patch went up yesterday.

And me give up this build? Never! I'm building it in HC once I get the time

Wow,thank you :).I saw it somewhere at youtube that someone said you gave up the build.

Great build but complicated for newbie like me.

P.s. HC is?

This is the funniest melee build ever!

If you only could try to shape a guide how to use cyclone effectively. That would be awesome!

Keep up the good work. :)

Hi. Been following your build more or less and works like a charm now when i got some gear. I just can't decide if I should use or

The second amulet is really nice but I've died a couple of times due to stunlock so... opinions?

Try out cyclone and let me know what you guys think.

Suggested links:

Cyclone - Melee Damage on Full Life - Melee Physical Damage - Faster Attacks - Increased Crit Damage - Increased Crit Chance

not sure if conc. effect would work

edit: increased aoe should be used in place of increased crit chance/conc. effect if you want more aoe

I just dropped in Cyclone to try out(minus faster attacks since I've a 5L). The gem is still low level so I don't have the nice IAS from it, but I'm getting 2.5k~ dps with auras on. It FEELS higher though, relative to how my 6k feels on lightning strike.

It just tears through mobs on docks. I have 7k ES so I'm not a lightweight but unless I have life leech on lightning strike, usually I will have a net loss of ES to a champion voidbearer mob before the first few die.

With just blood rage I can cyclone through huge packs and my ES doesn't drop, it's like I'm really a melee character :P .

I don't know if it's more efficient than lightning strike, it is far more fun though. I think depending on the map mods I would pick one or the other. With 4% mana leech on physical you regain your mana in a few hits. My movement speed is quite high as I'm running sin trek and haste. I think a lower movement speed would be more more efficient for damage, and you always have whirling blades if you need out of somewhere fast.

Do note, bear traps will prevent you from casting cyclone.

the stunlock and freeze is usually the weakness of ci, I used to use ci bow build shadow, but I kind of quit due to these 2 issues, I personally prefer HP regen build.

Use Chayula when you are solo grinding for MF, adapt to not being lazy with it's inherent ability to negate stun lock. Your other amulet is really solid, just get used to not standing still when spamming lightning strikes as it's a bad habit most CI Shadows who rely on Chayula have picked up. But I would use a blessed orb on your rare onyx, you could easily make that thing higher than the +12 it has right now.
