Build:

focus on martial arts, especially the Phoenix strike skill. we will see how this will work:)

Are you going cold or li? Li is a pain in the ass if you wield two weapons.

I dont really get what you are asking...
cold or lightning?
I mean, the phoenix strike with 3 charges does 3 kind of damage(cold fire light). or am I missing something?
and why only the light is a pain in the ass with 2 weapons?
tonight I am going to upload some SS, killed andy yesterday. using 2 claws so far, later maybe I will switch to claw+shield(depends on my resistances)

Because, you have to charge the separate li skill 2 times for most damage, which is impossible with speed. Also if you might have read the skill. It is charge based. 1 is fire 2 is cold and 3 li or whatever. So again, what are you going to play with li or cold.

well, I think I need to reconsider this build :S. I knew that it will be hard to play, especially if I want to max out my damage with these charges. it is hard to charge up 2-3 different skills+use cos and bos and mindblast together with one of my finishing skills...
I don't think i will get far with this char :S.
I assume I will play the lightning way, I will see how hard it is...

That is my point, you will have to look out. It does work tho (with skillers and infinity) but even then you need death sentry. Li is doable, I'd sitll play 2 weapons because then you can have clawblock which >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> every skill even dodge and the other two.

If you do play phounix strike, just max out the skill you want to use, either li or cold (li hit 4xk dmg, cold 1xxx) and then use the rest for shadow clawblock mindblast and deathsentry and even venom. You will need all of those sadly.

so you say 20 phoenix, 20 claws of thunder, 1-10 death sentry, 1-10 sh. master, 20 venom, rest into claw block cloak of sh and mind blast... nice idea, but I dont think I will get that far with her :S

Depending on items. I think you do. The dmg is good enough to kill untill lvl 30 then you'll have deathsentry and it will go easy. I'd take clawblock over venom at first especially when you do not have that much + skills.

It can be even better, I've forgotten to mention (allthough I assume you actually know this) the what is it, shadow warrior (the first one) mimics the skill you have on your right hotkey. So let's see you put death snetry on your right, you dont ever have to use it. Your shadow just will. So you can run around charging up and killing things while shadow is a good sport runs around and drops death sentry's like there is no tomorrow. Your build will most definitely work!
