can u tell still viable? and viable for beta when u try ofc :)? thanks for info

Viable in both, just hmmm idk if it's worth it.

I don't see how this build is viable for beta where you have constantly server resets.

Oh definitely not on the new beta servers :p Was referring to post-patch.

I am considering starting a poor man's version of this build. I have a 94 scion and maybe the budget to get me going. Certainly I won't use any mirrored gear or even acuities, but here's the basic sketch:

I will be using Shavs, CoE, Lioneye's Paws. For the shield I was thinking of Prism Guardian since it helps with mana reservation. For gloves I would actually go for some ES + resists to help me round the build up (no Acuities, so I go for Vaal Pact!). Then the dagger will not be a Loath Bane, but some decent ambusher with high AS, crit and some phys damage. The jewelry will have WED and maybe some flat phys in addition to covering everything else (ES, resists etc.)



Bandits: Skill Pct - Skill Pct - Power Charge.

I do not expect spectacular results. I just want to get started in the right direction. Let me know if you guys think this idea is viable.

Sure it's viable just don't skimp on jewellery (5 ex+ per piece)

I wouldn't use Prism tbh, high ES > one extra aura.

You are probably better off to continue with your Ele Crit Dagger build until you can afford high end gear. Your survivability will be way higher and the DPS increase isn't all that spectacular without spelldmg gear.

@Candoerfer

Yeah sure, but I just want to start. Eventually I will afford to upgrade my gear. Else what am I supposed to do? Wait until I have 400 ex and then start a LL build? :D One step at a time...

You could start by saving for a mirrored Ambusher and transition into life based hybrid ST, or get a mirrored legacy crit multi ammy, which will help you out with your current build aswell.

I think if he has 6L Shavs, at least 5 ex+ in jewellery slots, 20 ex shield and dagger he can start, I would however tend towards a more Flubby style spectral throw that uses Life Leech in the 6L.

Do you think this build is going to die post patch? Or, just that it will be less strong? I know it is a guess, but I am curious to your thoughts.

I know for a fact that it will still be the #1 variant of Spectral Throw, still able to cream 78 maps, still able to do Uber Atziri. That will not change but relative to other builds, the cost-effficiency and ability to do those things at a lower gear level may come into question.
