Dominion's Hardcore Dual-Spark CI Witch - UPDATED for 1.0.1

This build really interests me, but I don't want to play a Witch. Is it possible to convert it for a Shadow?

Here is the build the Guide advises for Merciless ledge farming.

Here is what I came up with for the same amount of points. I plan on picking up the Curse keystones at higher levels, but for starting Merciless ledge runs, is this viable?

Finally, if anyone knows any CI Dual Spork Shadow guides, I'd love to see them.
The node shield block and defences you take with this build when you go for CI what does it do?

Is the 15% increased defences increasing ES or just evasion/armor? or all 3? i need to go abit more into es nodes to feel safe thats why i want to know what it does if i should pick it up or not and go for a es node instead
What will happen to this build with the recent patch notes?
Pretty big nerf but I think it will still be very viable. The crit chance is massive because the base amount of the skill determines how well it scales with crit gear/passives, so dropping from 6% to 4% is actually a lot.
what gem add as 5th? increased critical damage or lighting penetration?

Increased crit damage is only worthwile if your crit chance is good (ie if you have specced into the crit chance nodes - as the gem does nothing except increase your mana cost unless you crit) - lightning penetration however does not require a critical hit to be of benefit. Crit or non crit lightning penetration always occurs for your sparks.

Ask yourself why would you want crit damage if you have a very low chance to crit.

Would like to know too! I might want to run this for the new SC league.
dps reduced, ES reduced, resists reduced...

better to make it low-life Rightous Fire double spark now...

Anyone know if Dominion is still running this build ? Or did he switch over to RF low life also ?
