As you may have guessed, Ellie is a Light Dancer style assassin.

20 Dragon Talon
20 Light Sentry
20 Shock Web
20 Master
1 Mind Blast
1 Blade Fury (unlikely)
X Burst of Speed

Rest goes into charged bolt, aiming for ~1k damage.




Ellie has been reborn as a kick trapper.

With the vastly improved experience I now have, I hope we can get all the way to Guardian. :)

Her build is going to be an untwinked variation of the 8/3/3 BoS Light Dancer.
(Credit to ilkori @ incgamers)

The dream is X/3/3 kicks @ 1k damage, 2000 LS damage, 48 fhr, 50+ resists, 15 DR.

DS will not be used.

You can find Ellie's progress as a phoenix here:

I was given the blessing of most of my core followers, and changed my build. I never felt very motivated to play a character so heavily reliant on AR.

A KT sin is a bit of an advanced hybrid. The build requires a LOT of stats and offers very low damage untwinked.

I hope everyone enjoys this as much as they did watching me wait for phoenix to actually hit something. :lol:





Andariel... much color, so use, very sarcasm.






Last time we played, I completed the horadric staff and entered canyon.

Stash is still full of delicious blood crafts. :drool:






New stats and damage.

I tested her a little bit while discovering some rollback bug deleted all of my a2 waypoints and maps.

Got a couple more points into master, some more HP. Will have to gamble some boots and pump STR soon!

Looks really fun man.
You prefer crescent moon over lawbringer for dealing with immunes?
Are you going zero block build? bold

At least 50% block with Sanctuary should be fairly easy due to the reqs on pb.

Lawbringer was mostly for the early ITD, but it might stick around now that I'm a leech-reliant build.




Apparently it didn't only roll back my waypoints...






I guess we're starting a2 again. :lol:

I'll need these!






It's a sign from heaven Tyrael... :wub:

It's... it's beautiful.






Moar runes toward muting a Lem!






Okay, ready for progress next time I sit down.

I really hope this is the end of the damn cos rollbacks.

Tracked. gL
Try getting ur hands on Laying of Hands, Sanders, or Magnus before crafting ur own gloves. Would be a good item which is easy to find.

Do this! I have never seen guardian sin, true.
No use of DS and kick against LR mobs sounds challenging and makes sin wt totally different and harder...
I would like to see how that works

I just wonder do u plan to use maxblock with w/s setup using BoS, or fade without maxblock but with ias based eq.


I don't rly understand all this EIAS shit, but I think as a general idea, 7/3/3 kicks will require level 4-5 BoS + crescent moon pb.
Hence, "BoS Lightdancer".
Treachery is an option I'm looking into, however.

I will edit the description in the op when I figure out what my end game is.

When I get to hell a4/a5 I will go max block with monarch, before then at least 50% block.

DS/crit, +min +max dmg, ED from weapon, and %damage to demons/undead don't work with kick.
