I decided to make my 1st rift sin a couple of weeks ago.....and have to give a vouch to the fun build/guide - located here:
http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=33542178&f=87I thought I would make a few comments regarding the rift sin.
once fully geared, it was a little difficult to get used to at first (i've only ever played trap sins b4).
I was laying traps and forgetting to "rift", then gradually i was rifting and forgetting to lay traps lol.
once u get used to it (learning the hot keys), then it becomes quite a fun character. it's cool watching the screen fill with frozen orbs, tornados and life tap curse,
and then corpse explosions going off all at the same time. The procing triggers really quick due to the blade shield and insane fast multiple kicks, even the torch firestorm
goes off often at 5% chance. The 1 point into dragon flight is nice for tele'ing over rivers & stuff
I only changed 2 items from the original build (a dual stat ring instead of dwarf cos u seem too need to waste a few points in str/dex imo)
and cta instead of the recommended hoto (which i don't understand why)
