Help me please if you can)) I ask for advice on how to assemble a Bladesin/blade fury assassin for LLD 30. All I can find are guides and builds from 2006. Maybe there are some fresh thoughts on this build.

I know a lot about bladefury @ lvl 18 but I have some suggestions that maybe of some help!

The biggest thing with a BF sin is that you have to plain to shoot blades. Because of this it is very important to maximize your defense/ar/speed as much as possible, but also make sure you have a massive amount of mana because of all the recasting needed.

Helm:
2 shadow / 30 FRW / 20 FCR 2os would be ideal with ed / ar / str / dex jewels. 20 FCR no necessary but nice for MB if needed. Other good stats would be base ED or REP.

Ammy:
2 shadow / 10 fcr / high life / high mana / life rep / MDR. Anything like this would be ideal

Rings:
2x 10 fcr / life / dex / mana / life rep / some res or MDR. Pretty standard but will need dex for max block and ar.

Weapons:
eth HS 2os amp 2 shadow / 3 BF / 3 Bladeshield / 3 MB. Ideally you would want KB as this is 100% critical to the build, but you can go with a Nef rune if needed or KB gloves. High damage is a must, and probably would want to socket with 24 maxers.
Switch 2x 2shadow / 3 shadow master or warrior (warrior is better) / 3 venom would be good for pre buff if going poison route and to recast shadow master

Shield:
Eth rep grim 17fhr/30fbr/20icb 2os would be awesome as it would make up for a lot of defenses. Could be socketed with 24 maxers or with ed -req jewels with dex to lower requirements

Armor:
24 fhr eth rep highest def armor you can get without sacrificing input into str with 2os would be ideal to make up for a lot of defenses. You can put 24 maxers or ed -req dex jewels to lower requirements
Spirit shroud could be another choice with cannot be frozen/ 1 skill / rep / mdr

Gloves:
Crafted KB gloves with STR/DEX/REP if you do not have KB on claw
Up'd Bloodfist if KB on claw

Boots:
30frw/10fhr/5dex/Res Meshboots

Belt:
SOE

Inv:
I would try to balance damage, AR, mana, and speed here. Basically, a combination of 3/20/15's, 3/3/20's, 15/12's (or bmana =P), 5/3/20's to get to FHR BP

As for skills, claw mastery being max'd is a must
1 psychic hammer
1 cloak of shadow
if not MB on claw then 1 MB
1 WB
1 shadow warrior
1 fire blast
1 WOF
1 blade sentinel
if not on claw 1 blade shield
split the rest of the skills between BF and BOS
optional fade if you want for sorcs and stuff

ideally you'll be at
86 fhr bp
42 FCR bp
Max block
potentially strength glitched all around so you can remove run penalties

Shadow warrior is a beast because you can have MB on switch and have her MB people while your are BFing. Versus zons WOF and MB work well as WOF procs the dodge aninimation

Versus necros you ccould get 2x non eth claws the same as the one listed above so that you can use claw block and block spears and spirits without fear of losing duribility on your claw from blocking

I have never done one on lvl 30 mind you but this is where I would start to think about!

Hope this helps or at minimum sparks conversation! I personally don't like venom as MDR and PLR is annoying AF

NP probably not perfect but a good ballpark! It's very flexible depending on how you play or want to play.

that's why I was thinking eth HS with at least 2 shadow 3 bf. I feel that shadow is more beneficial with claw mastery for higher crit chance, but I could be wrong. The extra damage from the extra skills in BF may be beneficial as the damanage calculations are definitely very complex with BF. At 18 the higher you raise BF the more mana it takes to throw blades which is a draw back.

But eth is important because BF doesn't use duri
