Just wanted to say, this build is a lot of fun to play.  I was too cheap to buy an infinity, and it still does fine against everything I've run in to so far.  Obviously I don't clear chaos as fast as stated, but that's to be expected, w/o -85% res that helps every attack of this kicker (lightning sentry, CE from death sentry, frozen orb).


Nice, glad its working out for you. In my opinion I'd pass on this build without infinity (not k/t sins , just rift on the k/t)

Bump and iso sticky!
50% of the sin guides in the stickys are ww sins and they're essentially all the same. Sticky's need more variety and pvm builds.

Just built this one. Lvl 70 now so i don't have the shield on yet and I'm waiting to up my boots, equip dracs, etc. She's ripping it up though. Tons of fun to play and no monster escapes her fury. Even before I set up infinity on my merc it was awesome.

Wondering if anyone has a link to a good ias calculator. I may go with nos coil and highlord's and use 4 facets. I'd like to figure out just where the bps and such are though.

Don't have a cateye either, but I'm going to try to find one and try it. I'm actually using gores right now since I like running fast.

Regarding ias: Not sure where you got your numbers from, but from the best info I could find, it looks like much less IAS is needed when using bos.
I'm using info from here: please lmk if it's not accurate: http://diablo.incgamers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=229326
Here It looks like with anything higher than a lvl 9 bos, only 10 IAS is needed to hit the top bp.
A nos coil with do it in other words. This would let you use an extra facet and maras. (Or metalgrid, though that's probably not necessary if you have an infinity merc.)
Or you could do it with a jewel or the ammy.
In any case, if this info is correct, you only need to dedicate 1 slot to IAS if youre using bos.
30ias will get you a 3 frame follow up with fade though. (but a slower initial kick).
I'm thinking I'll just pop another facet in and only gear for more than 10 IAS vs ubers (where I won't be using my headhunter's anyhow.)

and of course a few charms is worth the loss of dracs..  :wacko:
not to mention pvm chars probably shouldn't be using a full inv setup like pvp chars..

your setup is flawed in so many ways, yet it still gets by on 8player chaos. even with your horribad gameplay. well.. kicksins are powerful in pvm. it does look like a powerful mob spawn might kill you though. have you tried going up against frenzy mobs or vipers or soul heavy areas? I know I could handle them, can you?
keep playing and you'll get better. don't be afraid to use more skills, you started mixing in ds, thats good, now start using cloak along with other skills more. you are doing good in that you are experimenting with things that other players wouldn't, but you also have to acknowledge that you are new to this class and haven't used a combination of assassin skills together since this past week. people here have been playing kicksins for years, so don't expect to hit that "best possible setup" from your own ideas until you've been at it for a while, the best is subjective anyway and depends on your gameplay style and what areas you pvm in. you have many flaws in your setup, calling a setup using loh the best only shows you are novice at this.
Still waiting proof of my kick setup not being the highest possible damage one

What do you think of Venom with this build? Maybe sacrifice trap damage for more kick damage?
