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

Guys I need some help. Forum ate my previous post so I try to shorten this a bit.

Firstly my current build: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgYB_5MeGjBUmVcoKrVIsbPtQaZ_h9th4utjmZq29xEviGsZ1-OEwFFw1XBS8-oOSKc0EZZW6gV96f65fOywjAtHBl9qwuy0xZfQVvW5PttufeMrCsEA2xqdo_yrf8YnqX5ZrGbYdizhjorBxYhCkBtwVpoT29TsGMNtoqPB820ZO-Hi96cr

I want to get up to Nullification on that right es node and then continue towards Inner Force because it helps with auras as far as I understand it. I plan on using at least 3 later on. It does buff the auras, right?

My problems so far are:

- how do you manage the high strength requirements of Lightning Strike? I had to stop at lvl 11 because it already needs 100 strength. Do you skill that strength or rely mostly on items? It feels wrong to put much skills into stregth because it increases your life and I feel its wasted because I gonna run with CI later on.

- I have severe mana problems. My gear is crap but do you get enough max mana on items in late game that it supports up to 4 auras?

- I am unsure about where to get with my equipment. I heard that it is the wrong way to use combined evasion/es gear. Should I focus on ES alone if I am to use CI? Also, how high approximately are the costs for minimum ES gear for 3rd difficulty? I just want to be able to farm a bit on my own there.

- I need some general tips on skilling. Is it possible to reskill at the current point without wasting too much points? Is this build only suitable for CI or can you use something else out of it? Do I need more defense for CI or more crit/physical damage or whatever? Something very essential that is a must?


Apologies if those answers were already answered before in the thread, I didnt have the time to read most of it yet.

nice find for 5 exalt, it has more overall dps than mine but I think I would still prefer the extra attack speed :)

lol I just exalted mine and got 31 accuracy :(


@appetite when I was trying to switch to CI, I watched Invalesco's OB video and tried to match the values on his gear when I got my first set of ES stuff

Mine gave 26% WED. I guess it's not bad?



Was hoping for mana...

geez i got lucky tonight.
chanced my very first pair of stealth boots


good procs

aand my boots were my worst item

Chanced?? OMG

ye ^^
whishd i could have the same luck on my saphire rings now. used about 30 to 60 chance orbs on them. (cant remember if i did like 30 in begiining or not)

ugh cant decide.
should i keep this for now as it is?

i got 2 alch, 1 scouring and 8 chromatics (+ 1 gcp worth for trading, if need be)
to try make it better. but the chance is slim..

heres my old head (in desperate need to make better link for flicker atm)'


btw how do faster attacks pair with flicker, is it decent? any other green gem i might consider instead?
hmm wonder how
would fair

I'm new to PoE, and was wondering if a build like this had any wiggle room to add some trap skills?

Or would it not be worth it?

When should I start buying gear? I've just been doing fellshrine runs lately and I feel bad whenever I see everyone out dpsing me by a ton because it feels like I'm slowing the runs down :(

So I'm level 27 and I'm getting my ass kicked. I can't do Act 3 and I can't go back and solo the pyramid from Act to try to level/farm. Does anyone have any bright ideas? I've been following the skill build in the OP and have been trying to use Freezing Pulse for most of my damage but it just doesn't feel like it's working out, especially since I'm two levels over a zone and I'm getting completely destroyed by everything in there.
