[3.5] Say_Ten's Melee Shadow - Murder Everything Cheaply
" Endurying Cry is an awesome skill for survivability. If you don't want to spam it, you can use Vaal Grace / Vaal Double Strike / Vaal Ancestral Warchief for big monster packs or boss fightning. 4link like VDouble Strike - VAncestral - Melee physical - Ruthless is really good.

Hey, just started PoE about a week ago and have been enjoying it a lot. Love this build for how little investment it needs to get steamrolling through stuff and i've just recently been getting into mapping. Wondering what upgrades I should be working towards. Currently at about t5-t7 maps and everything is still pretty buttery but wondering if theres any cheap dps upgrades i could look for. Again, love the guide and the build, thanks for your time and effort in all of this.

" Use Frost Blade - Multistrike - Curse on hit - Assassin's mark. It gives nice utility and DPS increase, self cast curse sucks. Another option is damage setup for Frost Blades: Multistrike - Ancestral Call - Elemental Damage. Drop the mana flask and use stibnite / basalt (defensive) or lion's roar (offensive). The best option is going to be Taste of Hate, but idk if you can afford it. Get 20% quality on all flask and holy fk craft mods on the diamond flask. Get jewels with 6-7% life. Don't focus that much on DPS in the skill tree. Gear could be much better. Zuletzt bearbeitet von crown_is_heavy#1236 um 07.12.2018, 09:09:51

" It works but the tree is not there, the leveling trees in the written guide seems to be updated to 3.5, I just filled the tree out using the lvl ~100 points tree. |

I just hit lvl 67 and despite having looked forward to being able to use BoR, I'm now doubting whether I should. My best BoR gives me 600 armor, 850 evasion and 200 life. I'm wearing Starkonjas and Daresso's Defiance, which give me 1350 armor, 1850 evasion and 132 life, as well as some extra protections on low life. I also have a 5L Belly of the Beast as an option for level 68 but I'm not sure if the extra life is worth the reduced armor/evasion. It might be a noob trap, but having a little armor makes me feel a lot safer for the times evasion fails.
I realize that BoR will give me a significant DPS boost but I don't feel like I'm lacking DPS at all. I'll also be able to equip dual Touch of Anguish in one level for a huge DPS boost anyway. I play HC so I've already deviated a bit from the passive tree, grabbing a few life nodes in place of damage, and am in general more concerned about survivability than anything else - especially since this is the first time I've made it this far in the game. I guess my question is, is there a compelling reason for me to use BoR at this point? |

" Belly of the beast is for sure better than Daresso's Defiance. Yes, armor is a noob trap. The best sources of physical damage mitigation for this build are Basalt Flask, Taste Of Hate, Endurance charges (I really recommend using the enduring cry since you are going to use belly and have some free sockets). The best sources of evasion are jade flask(+% evasion + %effectiveness mods) and stibnite flask. I suggest you to run jade, stibnite, basalt flasks + 2 flex. Later you can upgrade stibnite into Sin's Rebirth, swap jade for the Taste of Hate and personally I would've keep Basalt all the way. btw don't use touch of anguish, the wasp nest + the bloodseeker is the kings' setup (i'm serious) >is there a compelling reason for me to use BoR at this point? Nope. 5link the belly (DS - Melee physical - Multistrike - Ruthless - Maim) + The Starkonja's Head are better. Personal advice, that I got after playing a few characters on the hardcore mode. Yes, survivability is important, but don't overdo it. Spending one second to one shot the monster pack is better than wasting 3 seconds, but having extra 500 life. You will get a lot of extra damage just because you can't kill stuff in the right time. in the incursion league i died 3 times while being low lvl farming (~85) bcs moscow server is the clown fiesta.
