Shadow Builds List

Welcome Exiles! Many thanks to Gazza732 & eviL_Bison for their dedication and their very valuable time maintaining this list over the years.


Build Lists for other classes:

What is needed to be featured in this list?
* Your guide should contain more than just your gear and a skill tree
* If possible a leveling section would appreciated (for our beginners)
* Pure theory crafted builds will not be added, builds should have at least made it well into maps
* I won't add "clickbaity" titles to the list. For example "55 Bajillion deeps, UE AFK"
* To submit your guide, just post a link in the thread or PM me, I will appreciate if you write a few words about it too

Thank you for taking over from Bison.

EDIT: The Dancing Infernal Warper - Lightning Warp/Stormfire/Burn Prolif/The Dancing Dervish/Rampage

This is a build using the Stormfire Ring and Lightning Warp to combine powerful Lightning Damage based burns with high mobility. It's a bit on the meme side of things and I don't know how high I can push this. It has no problems with rare Tier 8 Maps yet, I haven't had the opportunity to go higher with it though and it's able to do a Tier 14 Unid Corrupted Rare Dig Map. It's inspired by the Burning Warp Build of the Week by Hitma47, but takes a new take on it with a different class, passives and items.

Hey Jo,

Looks interesting! Build is up.

New Title: [3.4] Low Life Arc Mines

Up to Date!

Regards

[3.4] Better than Flicker - Consecrated Path Trickster with poison and 100% mana reservation

I use Consecrated Path with an off-hand Consuming Dark and two Heralds. As a Trickster I need no mana for Movement skills so my main attack costs nothing.
A cheap league starter with great farming potential in Delve and high tier maps.
