Hi, your build is very similar to this end-game build:
[1.1.0] THE KNOCKBACK REAVER (CASCADING REAVE STACKS WITH KNOCKBACK) But it hasn't been updated recently so you have a chance to modernise it. GLHF So many strikes within one breath.
But only one strike needed, for certain death. |

I'd go with Dagger + spectral throw + hatred + temporal chains on hit + 2/3x curses.
Temporal chains, chill and potentially projectile curse will stack with the knockback, spectral throw will hit twice and cold crit will give mini-freezes. It'll give abyssus something to work with and good crit will be sweet with puncture. Also, puncture works somewhat well with + to skilllevels it seems. For the wealthy a lvl 4 Empower in a 4-link with +1 to all skill lvls and a lvl. 21 puncture would give added +24% damage and +41% dmg. when movement. With the duration gem taken, it is also worth mentioning that puncture seems to be affected by + to skill effect duration and + debuff duration. Which means that there are 9 nodes giving + to duration. 120% in total. With crit + high duration, only the most damaging bleed would work = perfect for crit. Added fire with crit and dot dmg would also be interesting. Lastly, Bino + shadow-cluster DOT + Adders Touch = BINGO. If dagger and/or spectral throw is too much of a bore, there is also something to say about twohanded swords and possibly 2x 6-links. Last edited by Chiliconkarma#3790 on Jul 11, 2014, 3:52:40 AM

" Ah you're right it's very similar! I think my build gears toward more casual players instead of lv 100 end game build haha " You can't use multistrike with spectral throw though! Crit Puncture/Reave would definitely be interesting but I don't feel safe with reflect xD. I would love to test out a lv4 Empower but those thing are so dang expensive! Updated to Lv 78 -Added Lunaris video demo -Frenzy allows Reave to occasionally go over 10k |
