1.2.0 - Spectral Throw Crit Dagger (HC Viable)
" I am making a dual wielder. More or less the same skill tree, but instead of some shield nodes, I've gone for the Dervish node. I think it's working out great. Was a little squishy, but I got two new flasks which I can pop whenever I need more defense. Suregeon's Granit of Iron Skin and Surgeon's Jade of Reflexes. Plus I have a Grace gem that I sometimes use instead of Herald of Ash. All of that will get my damage reduction up to 77% for a few seconds. Enough to dispose of most threats. (Even Devourers are fairly easy now.) I use Atztiri's boots for an added spell block. Posted my gear two pages back, but I'll post it again since I made a few changes.
Spoiler
With my current gear I have (when using IncCritDmg-gems; I normally roll with IIR-gems) 47k dps on Dual Strike, 17k avg dmg on Flicker Strike and 11.7k dps on Spectral Throw. Last edited by mats_mono#2060 on Nov 9, 2014, 4:42:07 PM

You can go dual wield but the biggest problem is you need to have 2 good daggers instead of just one, which can be very expensive. I just don't feel like dual wield gets you anything 1h doesn't. But you can definitely make it work!

" Great, thanks for explaining. I feel a lot safer now that i run with rat's nest instead of abyssus.

This build is incredible m8(Ranger Acro/Ondar Defensive)
Spoiler
I plow through maps and switch to Rat's Nest if needed to counter reflect. Char has around 47 deaths but wasn't dying much since I switched gear (Couple of deaths due to typing post switch). I feel like the phys one-shot is inevitable ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |

" Or you can get two semi-good and still get pretty decent damage out of them. Don't think I payed more than an ex for any of mine. But yeah, it's mostly only a matter of preference. :) |

Would someone upload a video of this build (preferably someone that has no BiS gear.. can't make too many demands though)
I've never had a crit build before but I'd just so love to make on, especially a Spectral Throw one, since I really like Spectral Throw. |

" Did you check the vid in OP's original post? Maybe a bit too BiS.. ;) Made a vid for ya with my setup (not exactly following OP's build, that is). http://youtu.be/IDSp3AM5GDg No editing and low res, but you get the picture. Last edited by mats_mono#2060 on Nov 16, 2014, 2:06:11 PM

" http://youtu.be/VDqYqezGsJA Not very BiS, and just Lunaris, but hey, 60 fps! :D My most expensive items are: - master-crafted dagger (less than 3 ex) - tabula (1.5 ex) - phys. doryani's (1ex) rest is self-crafted or purchased for less than 10c each |

Posting to bump this thread.
Level 90 and still going up, Hatred + Heralds of Ice/Ash, no real 6-link (yet!) 30k dps spectral, 105k double strike (38/135 with blood rage and atziri's flask) 4k life, 6.8k eva, Acro-Ondar's for phys reflect maps: for half/no regen maps: With Ondar's variant of a build it's better not to stack too much accuracy, because reflect works with your acc so it would require insane amount evasion to counter. I also switched multistrike for increased crit multiplier gem, because it's more easy to crit-freeze bosses/exiles with harder hits (300ms freeze limit) with just minor tooltip damage drop.

I've been testing out Abyssus all day. It's absolutely brilliant. I am currently working on a way to cap resists without having to run Purity of Elements.
versus . DPS skyrockets with Abyssus by almost 7,000. Survivability takes a big hit though, even with mitigation via Lightning Coil. Rest of my gear for reference:

The chance to Vaal +1% maximum resists on an amulet is less than 1/300. Last edited by Daresso#3599 on Nov 24, 2014, 2:28:09 PM
