I was thinking gore rider for the stats or shadow dancers for the dex and +2 shadow skills as a bonus

but i'm not sure what the best in-slot boots are that won't cost me an arm and a ber (tri-res boots etc. or eth treks)

Dancers.

Upd gores are best. You don’t need the shadow skills and gores have better base kick dmg which is amplified by finisher and tiger strike= more healing and the crushing blow is a nice touch vs boses

High resists myrmadon greaves would be another option if you don’t have enough resists from inventory and fade somehow or if you just want higher stack vs potential conviction/lower resist curse

Tri res boots because if your using fade your doing it wrong

Tri res if you go bos, not needed to hit a good ias with dragon talon tho.
Gores are good against bosses like Baal. I was using gores. Just got a 1 skill shadow dancer with 25 dex. For the increased life and the fhr! Shadow skills do help as they increase fade, res and damage reduction. Claw block. And claw mastery, for more attack rating getting charges.

I’m going with shadows for all around play. My res is capped anyways, so it’s upped gores or shadow dancer imo

Yea any of them work tbh. As long as you hit decent frames you’re going to roll any content easy

thanks for confirming this.. dont know why the guide i read said to max out fade

max fade is better. you can spare the points for it. use bos for getting stacks if you want them faster but theres 0 use for bos after that - you wont hit faster with kicks with it plus you're teleing, not running around.

The only time bos will increase your kick speed is if you're hitting 5 kicks and if you're doing that you should respec. Or if you have slow claw bases

do you know if feral claws are too slow? I only have those and scissors quhab , would i need to supplement ias in my other gear to get them as fast as gt's ?

You'll be fine with kicks using those bases you'll hit the same frames as the fastest claw bases. Should probably use bos when getting charges a bit faster though if it's safe to do so. Probably shouldny runn up to a pack of souls without fase or charges ofc.
