[3.5] Say_Ten's Melee Shadow - Murder Everything Cheaply

.

I've been enjoying this build a lot also, though I wish I'd gone normal league other than incursion, because trying to kill those architects before the timer runs out has me tearing my hair out.

I did want to get your opinion on something, and if it's already been answered in the past, I apologize, but 160 pages is a bit daunting to go through. I have a Tabula Rasa, and was wondering if it'd be useful for use since I'm currently lvl 30, or is the loss of any stats outweigh the colorless six link? RNG hasn't been kind with regards to sockets and links, and it's starting to hurt with elites and bosses a bit.

If you have any advice with regards towards gear that low lvl, I'm sure as hell listening. This build's a nice change from my necromancer witch, so definitely want to get him better.

Well first off I'd like to say thank you for this guide due to how much it helped. Very fun playstyle it just rips through just about everything. However, I am having trouble staying alive in certain circumstances. I wanna get more life on my gear (and will only probably reach 4k if I'm lucky) but I'm always on a tight budget. I'm pretty new myself and wanna know if theres a solution. Also, the Touch of Anguish claws improve clearspeed by alot, they were so worth investing in.

For leveling I suggest:

Goldrim

Le Heup of all ring

Wanderlust then Shavrones pace boots at 42 (these help alot with the lack of Int & provide excellent movespeed)

Maligaros Virtousity provide crit chance/multi and some attack speed

Get Herbalism, Born to fight asap. Get % life on your jewels. More life on rings, amulet, gloves and belt.

Touch of Anguish is trash tbh, I even suggest Say_Ten to remove them from the list. They are fine with Frost Blades and make no sense with Lightning Strike. The Wasp Nest > Touch of Anguish.

Link your Lightning Strike with Curse on hit - Warlord's mark - Multistrike. Warlord's mark will help with survivability and why tf u dont have multistrike. You have Faster Attacks linked with Dual Strike, when BoR already supports with it. Remove it and get Ruthless. Remove Charged dash and summon ice golem, get CWDT - Immortal Call - Enfeeble. In another claw get Hatred - Herald of Ash - Vaal Grace.

Your flask setup should be life flask - lion's roar - diamond flask - stibnite - basalt. Lion's roar is awesome semi-defensive flask. Diamond flask is the most efficient flask in terms of DPS, this will increase your monster clearing alot (when monsters are dead they can't one shot u). Stibnite overperforms jade flask. Basalt is too good actually because you really need this phys damage mitigation.

Thanks for this great build in such details. I'd appreciate if you could move the skill gems section outside the gears section for easily checking.

tabula is fine for leveling. up to you if you can deal with the mana cost of running a 6L skill that early...but if you do enough damage, the entire game's normal content is relatively easy.

don't worry about the architect shit. soon you will kill everything and exit the incursions on purpose, yourself, because you don't want to sit around for 25 seconds waiting for the timer to run out.

need to find out what a "withering hit" is, but besides that it's an easy way to do a lot of chaos damage with a build that has crit, insane attack speed and a lot of physical damage already. so we may be able to get poison to the point where it's strong.

vicious projectiles could be a decent supplement to lightning strike or frostblades with poison/bleed. it would probably be even more insane if that support could roll on shaped/elder gloves.
