Oh.

I use Trangs+10% icb amulet, so for me I'd prefer to lose the jewel. :s



Just find a poor 40 ias alternative and socket 2x 15/15s, put it in stash.

I use a 2/40/2/2 as my main claw; it cost me 1k.

you can use any of the tabs really, I use char/skill
char screen is a bit unique over the other tabs in that you can target through it with single clicks, with other tabs you have to hold a skill down before dragging it to the side to work.
this trick works with anything, not just offscreen trapping, you can use it to do further distance telestomps or any spell really, although it may take a lot of practice aiming. offscreen trap spam is somewhat easier to do by comparison, still takes some practice knowing when to try it cause it constricts your vision while you try. and you can't namelock from it. just pressure from a distance.

i have done ma assa so far and got this problem:

9 skill points left (light traps + syncs are maxed). Weaponblock is at lvl 15(with items) (so 52% block) and mb is on lvl 2 (without items). Should i invest the 9 points to max the weapon block ,or mb so the shadow will use it more often ?

i think mb for shadow > fireblast dmg

thx

nah lol synergies give alot of dmg boost.

i think i will put these 9 skill points into mb.. i have it on lvl 10 then. propably doing some more lvls and put it on 12 or smth.

but i thnik the dual-block is pretty important too :S

this is why you level to the mid 90s, so with maxed mindblast you are only a few points off from maxed synergies (synergies max out at level 99 with that build)

mindblast spam frequency from shadow kinda goes crazy as you approach 20 hard points in mb, so it makes more sense to max it out first than having a level 10-15 mindblast in the end.

a diagram or excel sheet which shows how much the shadow uses mb with each mb-skill level would be usefull.

btw can u re-skill in every difficulty once? So i could re-skill my assa 3 times?

thanks

"how much" is a bit hard to quantify since there are other factors as well, including positioning, number of targets for shadow and whatnot.
someone did a test a while back (a year or two) teleporting in the same place and counting mbs, this of course doesn't give concrete numbers since they varied a bit from test to test, but it appeared as thought its a curved graph, with mb frequency having noticeable increases more and more with every point as you approach 20 points. so it's really worth maxing out first for shadow spam, since this helps gameplay and stunlocking players, that being more important than raw damage from sentries.

as long as you don't have too much of an issue leveling up to ~93~95 or so those 4-6 points of synergies you are lacking won't make too big of a difference in your damage.
