id like to see non kick sin do it, dual claw :)
Attempted a non-kick assassin today. It was
Tiger Strike Natalyas assassin with dragon claw finishing move.
Was using natalyas claw and bartucs, the rest was same as in my kicksin run.
The run started really well, my physical damage was huge - up to 4k and mini ubers were no problem at all, getting to them was also easy and fast, but then the troubles began.
While fighting Mephisto I was absolutely locked because of claw block blocking all the skeletons missiles, so there was barely anything I could do.
Decided to resped, without putting any points into claw block, it was way better, but then handling all the skeletons became a problem, since I had no shadow master to convert them, life tap was overriding cloak of shadows, also it was hard to recast life tap once it ran out.
Also Mephisto was regenerating very fast if only I stopped hitting him for a second.
As I was getting low on full rejuv count, decided to forfeit it, and called friend barb to howl the minions away, so I failed.
However with the minions being howled away, I had no trouble at all killing the ubers.
So all in all, even with pathetic natalya boots damage kicker is still better for ut, as dual claw sin has big problems handling the minions.
It is definitely possible to do it with this sin, with better gear it would be much easier as well. but it is very annoying and impractical..
Not even going to include the video, because I couldn't do it completely solo.
My next run is going to be full
Tal-Rashas sorc run and it will be the last thing I ever post on these forums.
