You probably won't have enough resistances with those boots, but if you manage to get capped resists with those boots then go for it :)

Level 46 on my Shadow character, running the The Dark Pact+Void+Added Chaos+Controlled Destruction. Wondering when I should start adding other Gem Links.

Also wouldn't mind if you cleared up the main Gem Links in the build to be easier to follow. Just for the general build & then have the spin-offs a bit more separate. For example, I think how Sid shows his Gem Links is easy to understand.

Appreciate the help! :D

Also do gotta say, having such an easier/faster leveling experience on the Shadow versus my Witch.


Edit: Also a bit of clarification on which Gems for each weapon at the 62+ mark.

Will update this later today :)

Thanks man! Such a fun leveling build so far. Far less death and struggle compared to Witch with Caustic Arrow. Haha.

Looking for another build after ED and this looks kinda cool.

Would the worm flask proc cast on melee kill?

Don't know, gonna test this, probably works and would be nice to proc in blue packs

I'm most probably doing something wrong, but I'm having hard time fighting bosses with this build (something like lvls 35 to 50). Life Leech from Warlord's Mark isn't enough if there is less than 5 or so enemies. I'm carrying Essence Drain with me around for bosses and when somehow few enemies survive the Dark Pact hit.

Besides of the above, I'm loving this build. Very different play style from what I'm used to, can't wait till it unfolds fully (only lvl 49 for now).
