Perz' Reave Shadow
Hi Perz,
I didn't see this being brought up in the FAQ so here goes: I see people doing this build without the eye of chayula. I've been using it ever since I went CI in merciless and because of this I can't say that my shadow has ever died as a consequence of getting stunned (heck, being new to the game I don't recall having ever been stunned!) So as my DPS starts to increase (currently 24k with hatred) and in light of the recent vaal pact nerf, I find myself tempted to try buying an amulet with better offensive stats and perhaps some life leech (because with 20% leech + VP, I one shot myself when I crit against physical reflect) 1. What are the best offensive stats to look out for on an amulet? 2. What kind of monsters/abilities should I be scared of if I'm no longer immune to stuns? Also, I don't hit particularly fast (1.1 on claw) but I have the occasional mana problem when running 2 auras. I can only hit twice with reave before being OOM, so if the game desyncs or if I miss twice in a row, I have to use a pot, and since I stopped hitting, I stop leeching and worst case scenario, I die. 3. Would a 20% concentrated effect make a noticeable difference with that problem? Right now I'm usually only running hatred when clearing maps because of this problem. Here is my gear: Last edited by Gaupare#4588 on Mar 10, 2014, 4:04:27 PM

" imo you have to be immune against stun as reaver. so if you want to use a rare amulet, go for the armor-based build. more leech on amu won't help against reflect but armor will. q20 conc effect is nice to have for this build. check out the armor-build section!

Thanks perz for the build it was fun till it lasts but it is not viable anymore without VP if you dont have 5k+ ES and 30ex worth of each item parts

It's the first time I play a shadow and boy this dps in Normal is insane :) Reaved through Merveil in like 5 seconds :)
I'm nearing Oak now and I have a hard time deciding on CI vs. Life. I never played melee / reave in the endgame, my only CI endgame char was a summoner. Am I correct in assuming, that CI offers more dps (Blood Rage) but less defenses? In light of the fact that we have Atziri and all the sick corrupted bosses, which one would you guys recommend in Ambush? Shavronne wrapped Kaom's waist,

Sry im pretty damn new to this game so imma gonna ask a probably pretty dumb question. does zealots oath work in the reaver build too ? and how good does it work etc ? Sry for this vague question. like i said im pretty new and inexperienced. so is my english btw.

" it depends on which items you have. i pretty much prefer the ci build over the life build. " zealot's oath and all life/es regen doesn't work with vaal pact IGN: Perz | Reaver: view-thread/523959 | Wander: view-thread/742525 | Cycloner: view-thread/804489
