[ 3.18 ] KissMeQuick's Smooth Sailing Shadow— A Short & Easy Beginner's Build for Running Acts Fast

Updated the first post PoB to 3.16 - looking pretty good! A lot of nice early game masteries.
Made it a little longer than last time with up to 80 points.

am i missing something or do i need like over 40 respec points to re do my skill tree?

Really nice guide, I always hated leveling the shadow but with this guide it was super easy

If you accept any suggestions, I switched Concentrated effect for Increased area of effect and I felt it was much faster to clean the acts
Finished in 6h


I'm also using these 2 super cheap uniques (1c each) that worked great with the guide

I am a bit confused about refunding this build. I can see how you could refund into another ranged build or maybe a trapper, but are you trying to say that you could refund into any other build?
You will not be able to change to something other than another Shadow as far as I understand the game, will you?
I really like the build for SSF, low budget, etc. It is easy to play, thanks.

Maybe you could explain more on your comments about changing builds after this build finishes the Acts.

I've started with this and it's going very smooth. I had no luck getting a Tabula but even without it, it has been very fast so far.

Act 5 this league, very smooth, no Tabula (:

Act 10 this league, did all bosses relatively fast, started speccing into my spellcaster Reap build at level 40.

This was a super fun leveling build. Just got to lvl 60, and did some shopping. Replica Lioneye's Paws make Caustic even more fun as it fires a Toxic rain very time you shoot.

Looking for ways to keep going with this, I found a Poison Blade Vortex build that almost matches this tree that I am scavenging for gear ideas

Still works!

The fk is this? You say you switched to reap as soon as you hit lvl 40 and in your act 10 pob it shows us the same caustic arrow build with shrapnell ballista.

This is confusing...

This just means that I started taking passive points towards Reap at that stage. I played it this league as well and also did the same at level 40.
