How does the DPS of this build fare in comparison to other Shadow builds?

I am lvl 30 and just got LS my gear is kind of all over the place, the dungeons are starting to get abit difficult. I feel like im slowly falling behind a bit. What should i be focusing on finding at this stage ?
it kinda feels like i have too many skills, i have fire trap, double strike (with crit dmg), cleave, viper strike, freezing pulse, flicker, whirling blades and lighting strike. should i get rid of any of these ?

any advice would be appreciated

Hey Invalesco, i have a request :D
Since for some wierd reason alot of new people want to try out your build (next time dont call it a ninja!) maybe you could explain how some support gems work?
For example, on another one of your guides, the Etheral Knives guide. Theres a video of you doing a dark forest map and I can clearly see that the knives keep bouncing off of stuff and hitting other stuff. But I have no real idea which support causes this o.o
If you could explain what each support does exactly, and why you choose certain supports over others, I (and im sure others) would be very grateful :D
If you read his post, he does tell you which gems he links in his gear...

Sorry, I probably misread your post. I probably stopped after the second paragraph :P

Do you think this build is quite a bit weaker now with the change to CI not giving you additional shields any more? I was leveling my guy using this build, having quite a bit of fun/success in normal (thanks to some sweet weapon swag), but then noticed that and kinda lost the desire to do it. :|

Quick question: What does Vaal Pact do for you (passive tree, bottom left side.)
I was looking thru your end-game passives and can't really figure out why you'd care about leech and regen with 1 life total from CI.
Thanks.

I'm also curious about this build's viability post CI nerf, is it still viable Invalesco or would going hp/armour be a better route?
