nono i didnt mean anything bad or offensive lol, its just funny how you can get away with gear like that.
yeah my jewellery is pretty trash but i have 75/76/75 resists with 50% chance to evade. I am sitting on at the moment trying to find another good ring and amulet to keep my stats up.
Yeah to use all three of those you have to have really good resists on all of your pieces and in fact if you can get crazy amazing resists you can hit up a Lightning Coil as well heh.
I'm still sitting on some Malagaros that dropped for me until Haku hits 6 and can give me the better resists. This week is mostly no gaming though, too much going on so it's like dailies and 1-2 maps and that's it.
Why are the Trees for Shadow IR?
Can a Shadow go evasion based for defensive/offensive? Does someone have the build tree?
Just happened to be the start I was on when I ran it. You can do either tree from either start it doesn't matter. Shadow is slightly more offensive, Ranger more defensive.
I'm using Molten Strike and I find this great especially versus Beyond mobs who used to stay as a pack. Tricorn allows me to use 2 Herald's which looks nice ;)
DPS:
ST - 8,4K with Atziri's Flask 10,5K
Molten Strike - 34,5K, with Atziri's Flask - 43K
Beyond League
if you are not using the tricorn, how often will you be getting shocked?
I am 84 with this build and I love it!, I have changed the tree around very little but I run haterd amd both hearld of ice and fire with caped res, only down side is -60 chaos
Gear
Ill be puting on the two stone ring with iir and replace my old one I just found the ring in a map and GG :D I almost may roll life on ammy and all res on dimond ring so i can work on switching out my belt for a lil more dmg and geting a lil chaos res back for blood rage.
looking for gear progression advice on Beyond - i think at this point I basically just need the same dps on my gear but with higher life rolls on boots/gloves/amulet in particular, but I'm open to suggestions. I'd also love to have accuracy on my gear but at this point in the league i don't think thats realistic just yet. I'm open to any suggestions though.
Wow nice gear... How'd you farm up enough for the Binos?
You should also post your build. I hope accuracy doesn't become a problem for me late-game. I'm level 55 right now, still using Mightflay.. lol
Just mapping and occasionally flipping items by taking advantage of people not using benchcraft properly. Its very easy to find items missing 1-2 damage mods or crit for cheap, adding a mod, and then flipping it for a few extra chaos, or an exalt+ in some cases. Mostly just grinding though.
This is my current build at 88, I haven't been prioritizing shield block, its an amazing stat but I've just been chilling with 50% block and generally happy with that, having 70+ would be nice but I'd have to shift a lot of points over to it in order to make that happen. I plan on Removing the acuity node at 92 ( hopefully I'll have accuracy on jewelry by then ) and shifting those points to fill out to Profane Chemistry opting for the 15% extra health and flask recovery over the shield block nodes. Shield block can definitely be a life saver but I think the higher health pool adds a bit more consistency to the character, where having the shield block still kinda leaves that opportunity for me to die if the shield block doesn't pull through due to having a lower life pool. Its probably not a substantial difference at the end of the day. I'm totally open to input though. I was very unsure about taking the Fencing node but accuracy is just so difficult to find right now, I have 83% hit without acuity at 88 :/
edit: this took 15 divines but I'm very happy with it -
Awesome. Thanks for the response and the farming tips. I get what you're saying about the accuracy.. that accuracy does seem kinda low.. mine is getting lower too. I just got Depth Perception cluster (pretty much the only accuracy nodes indicated in this build) and I have about 89% accuracy at level 61. What's your Evasion chance at? And I also had been using 50% block chance up until level 60 basically but after getting into Merciless I've started taking more damage so I'm going to focus on block now. My evasion chance has gone down a bit too I think I'm like at 55% chance to avoid/ 30% chance to dodge attacks. I've got about 2.5k life and still need to get the upper shadow life nodes, but not focusing on the power charges just quite yet.
