Hey, im using your build, but im thinking about daggers, but i dont know too much about theorycraft or have enough knowledge to tell if its going to be good.

Im going to put one more point in dps for the Adder's touch (removing everything related to claw), but i dont know what i should remove to get this one more point, and im afraid to be too squishy, and about the gear, im going to use the same like yours but the weapon, i saw that Bino kitchen's knife uses this passive(Adder's), and its pretty powerful and have good sustain, are there better daggers or combinations or Dual wielding binos is perfect for it? Sorry for asking about dagger when your build is about claws, but i truly like your concept, like yourself i prefer Shadow killing things with small weapons and not shields, magic or huge 2hands.

I hope that GGG buffs Shadow melee builds, i hate to be forced to play magic builds to reach higher endgame with this character.

Two Binos would be fine to get you going. Plus the life regen would be a nice touch. You will want to invest in some leech nodes too.

Can you please show me from where i should remove points for those life leechs nodes, thanks for the help.

Where do I get the cleave then?(or this is specifically solo target dps setup?) From unique jewel or ms = melee splash?And where is brutality gem that you mentioned earlier for coil setup? It should give more damage then maim or ruthless?

Also if I use brutality will it work with our elemental auras - HoA+Hatred?

Good ideas from what I read.


Probably a stupid question but is it possible for this shadow build to be only slightly changed (or maybe not at all?) to work as a buzzsaw build?

I'm only asking because I don't know if I'll enjoy it and I'm gonna get burned out if I level another 2 chars.

Thanks.

Hey,

When I clicked the lvl 100 tree i can't see any points in claws OR dagger. Are you currently working on an updated build or whats going on?

Thank you for the guide.

But I have to say that I use almost Lightning Strike and Dual Strike only for bosses (then i change the gems => LS und Add. fire out and DS and Ruthless in).
Even if I like to do melee, it goes with LS easy and fast to kill Trash.

Can you look at my char ... What can i optimize for LS? The Skill Tree?
I only have 3,5 k live because of my crap rings and amulet :/

thanks for your help
