My shadow is too fragile :/ Help me figure out what is wrong with my build?

Archers can give you a headache well into the endgame. They're essentially like being surrounded, except they're not anywhere near you. ;) That's especially an issue when you're life leeching and you have to get to them first - flicker strike can help here though.

I see your 73% and raise to 84% (with flask which I don't usually use) - against enemies of level 71:

" does 1300 life work then? I assume ur running grace and iron reflexes? |
|

Grace, Iron Reflexes, Determination and that flask.
1.3k health works for me, with my damage reduction, playing style and choice of farming grounds - Pyramid and the level 60 maps I tried so far. It doesn't guarantee survival but it's good. |

ok more feedback, this build has started to get really fun around level 42, whirling with life on hit+mana leech is basically and auto-topup and its mana cost is ridiculously low (18 for a 500dps attack).
flicker and bloodrage are only good on certain maps, pyramid for example, forget it, too close and easy to get screwed in a corner. iv decided im gonna prove evasion wrong and not take iron reflex, instead gonna go way over for the mara life regen/life nodes. Dps atm is absurd, fully tweaked i can crank out 2700dps on flicker. Viper strike is amazing for tougher bosses, just drop temp chains, kill their support with whirling and viper strike a couple times to kill high hp stuff like mammoths that have regen. also (moot point) if you party in public like i do often and some little weasel is ninja'ing gear, make a note of his name. With phase and whirling+faster attacks you are faster than anything else on the screen, let him know thats not how the shadow rolls!!! |

" This has nothing to do with shadow, only how whirling blades + faster attacks + fast weapons work. I do this with my fire witch that has a dagger. I whirlwind next to mobs, burn them all and whirlwind away. |

Remember, chris has stated that evasion will be buffed. Not modified, Buffed. Positive effects will be added to the stat. So let's wait and see.
