Dude I just made a 28 rep shield to test and omg it's so slow. I don't understand how you can regain any significant life with 40 life rep in an actual duel. It takes about a 45-50 seconds for me to gain 100 life.

Also, I noticed that in long duels, I tend to recast bo a lot as it only has a 120 or 130 second duration on my sin. The part that worries me is re-WSMbugging my claws. I'm always a little apprehensive about someone killing me when my claw is picked up. Or even worse, dropping it on the ground :O
Have you figured out a safe way to do this?


1. You can rep without gcs, bo, etc and when you put the gcs back on/recast bo the amount you rep up is amplified by the hp boosts.
2. Usually whirling sins with good damage don't have to worry due to their damage output, hide behind a corner and cast 5 sentries if you need to re bo, but don't feel like you NEED to bo if they're chasing you in a bad situation.

Okay now here's the next problem.
I'm level 91 atm. By the time I'm level 95, the 4 remaining skill points I'll have will go into wake of fire and then dragon flight + its prereqs.
This means that I won't have any points for maxing lightning web.

Now the thing is that since I've put the gchaos on, my ls damage has dropped from 6.1k to 5.3k. How am I going to manage 6k+ trap damage with a gchaos on? I'm currently using a 3/3/3 fury +gchaos and I'm looking for a fools with 3 ls so changing my claw won't have any effect on the ls damage.

That's easy, don't use dragon flight.
Only get dragon claw. DF is utterly useless.

Even then, That leaves me with just one extra point for lightning web which is only going to raise my trap damage by about 80 instead of the 800 i'll need for 6k damage. (Which is the least trap damage I should get according to this guide)
