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

So I have been trying this build and it is pretty decent as long as you grind for the gear. But I have hit a wall in my spec points because I don't know if I want Vaal pact or Inner focus. What do you guys think would be better.
@ Nevzat something is wrong with your linking there... e.g. I am not sure that Wrath is usable with mana leech support gem...

Hi, I was wondering why you were talking about Viper Strike and Elemental Hit in your introduction:

"What is this build about?
It's a build that focuses on building the shadow around a CI build, focusing mainly on high crit chance/crit multiplier with Surgeon's Granite Flasks, Energy Shield, Evasion, and ES Steal while using Lightning Strike as the AOE CC skill, Viper Strike/Elemental Hit/Double Strike as the main dps skill in 1v1 bosses/pvp situations and Flicker Strike as a high DPS spam skill when needed."

You do not seem to use them in your build, since I cannot find it here:

Dagger: Whirling Blades, Blood Rage, Warlord's Mark
Chestpiece: Lightning Strike - Faster Attacks, LMP, Increased Crit Strikes, Increased Crit Damage, Mana Leech/Weapon Elemental Damage
Shield: Reduced Mana - Wrath - Grace (if you have enough mana to support it)
Head: Flicker Strike - Melee Damage on Full Life, Melee Physical Damage, Increased Crit Damage
Boots: Double Strike - Melee Damage on Full Life, Melee Physical Damage, Faster Attacks
Gloves: Reduced Mana - Discipline, Hatred, Haste

Do you use them only occassionally and if so, when do use them?

Regards

At lvl 63 now, just made the change to CI.
I got a little low ES(no good es chest yet to link my LS)
but otherwise i'm charging on good in act2(thou i made it to act3, but can't grind there safely)

Current dps is 2,5K with DS and about 2K ES.

What's the though on gear?
i'm on the lookout for 5L ES chest and better dagger, but i gotta grind up some orbs first to trade with =)

Look:

VIPER S, Elem. H, and Double S. are SINGLE TARGET damage.
How u use:

U look a mob, u use your Ligh. Strik.

U look an elite/Boos, you use your SINGLE target skill.

The target is resistent to elem and normal attack - use viper
The target is resistent to Chaos and normal attack - use Eleme. hit
The target is resistent to elem and chaos attack - use Double S.
The target is resistent to elem, normal attack and chaos attack - you call CHUCK NORRIS.

But Double strike is the best because - Mana use is zero...
1 crit mean 2 crit in double strike.
Late in game your pure dmg is so high that is better than chaos or element.
this anygood??

No, it's trash. You should probably give it to me so you don't have to look at it anymore.

I'm currently level 69 and I'm almost godmode. Here is my current gear:


Current Skill Build



Current stats with auras, and without frenzy charges:

Double Strike: 2838 dps (22.4% crit chance)
Lightning Strike: 2737 dps (30% crit chance), 36 mana cost with Weapon Elemental Damage

Chance to hit: 74%

3976 Energy Shield
4027 Evasion (27% chance to evade)

123 mana (652 reserved, 775 total mana pool)
26 mana regen per second

75% Fire resist
75% Cold resist
33% Lightning resist (will be higher when I get a real helmet)




Some items I need to upgrade:

- need to get a real helm, mine is just temporary until I find a good EV/ES hybrid with high resists (currently lacking lightning resist)

- better weapon hopefully with nice attack speed

- maybe better ES shield with more than 1 resist on it

- need to roll G-G-R-R on the Sin Trek boots

- the Plague Knot ring I have has really really nice stats.. but no mmana.. I can't find a ring with mana that won't make me lose all the other nice stats (strength, ES, lightning damage, dual resist) not sure what to do about that


Some stats I could really really use right now:

- more strength: A lot of my red gems are low level because I only have 85 str, and I can't get new ring/amulet since they both have str on them that I desperately need for my gems. I'm going for Vaal Pact first instead of Inner Focus so that I can get some strength nodes

- more mana: with 4 auras (wrath, discipline, grace, hatred) I have about 105 mana usable out of total 775. This is fine but because I put Weapon Elemental Damage on lightning strike, the mana cost is 36 (and sometimes while spamming LS I stop casting for like 1 sec due to not enough mana before it regens)

- more attack speed: using Haste aura instead of Grace would give me the needed bonus attack speed, but due to mana I don't have enough to run wrath/disc/hatred/haste

- "Cannot Be Stunned" mod from the unique amulet Eye of Chayula, but again, my current amulet has intelligence, manaleech, +41 max mana, and if I lose all those I will lose too much mana






Some of my questions to Invalesco and other high level/decent geared people:

- should I reroll my chest for R-G-G-B-B and use crit chance+crit damage gems instead of crit chance+Weapon Elemental Damage due to WED needing too much mana cost? or will I be fine for mana later on with more dagger damage nodes etc?

- should I get Eye of Chayula ASAP? I would lose 58 base mana from replacing my current amulet with Chayula, but the constant stuns are pretty annoying

- how do I get more mana? I have the +mana mod on most of my gear that allows it and still I need a bit more to not go out of mana with LS+WED and to be able to level my auras higher and also use haste instead of grace

- overall suggestions for gear upgrades and what I should look for to replace which items?

Would the idea be to begin building the same way - except to throw 10-20 points into health, gear more survival oriented than dps, and wait until far down the road to re-spec into CI and drop the health?
