There are now THREE shadows in the invasion top 100!
|
Everyone congratulate DivineOregon for becoming the 3rd shadow to enter the top 100 due to all the dead templars!
:D Cuz lulz But for real kudos to those three shadows, they have achieved the impossible my evasion is so high i only insta rip sometimes ----- Bug Fixes: People were using cyclone for actual melee builds, so we nerfed it and made blade vortex. Also, we went ahead and made cyclone great for CoC casters while we were at it. Last edited by Legatus1982#1658 on Mar 7, 2014, 12:48:10 PM

I just realized it's all Templars at the top of Invasion ladder.

" Yep, last time I looked it was 28 out of 60. I didn't bother checking the top 100 because I'm too lazy to count to 50 :P Dat balance Even in ambush league there are almost no shadows and dramatically more templars my evasion is so high i only insta rip sometimes ----- Bug Fixes: People were using cyclone for actual melee builds, so we nerfed it and made blade vortex.

Yep, while not playing in Invasion, my Ambush Templar is going pretty strong. Can't wait until I've farmed enough with him to fund my planned low-life melee shadow (which is going to be interesting with the leech changes, but do-able).
If you want to make valid complaints in regards to class distribution in the ladder, I would suggest waiting until it has matured a bit more. |

" Got a link for your melee shadow idea? I've been trying to do melee shadows (typically with daggers) for a long time and they all sucked, but since vaal pact is now moved it may be possible. The leech changes make vaal pact much more attractive even with the nerfs, and it's reachable now. Still don't see melee daggers being viable but I may try it when I finish leveling my trapper. my evasion is so high i only insta rip sometimes ----- Bug Fixes: People were using cyclone for actual melee builds, so we nerfed it and made blade vortex.

Planning on high EV/ES, aura passives, life regen + decent life pool (so that having only 35% of it to buffer chaos damage is workable), Ghost Reaver, Claw (not decided on block or dual wield, leaning block for Tempest Shield + LL), likely a 3L Cast on Stun + Molten Shell + Decoy Totem (undecided on 3rd skill in link, but def CoS+MS), and enough chaos resists and life regen to counter Blood Rage so that I can ABUSE the attack speed on low life. Not planning on VP, too much travel, IMO.
Undecided on main attack skill, whirling blades for movement, leaning towards Reave. |

" Eh, I don't think it'll be viable in the new league. There are more than enough 1hko bosses to make melee completely unviable. Though you could just run from all the new bosses I guess. Post your results in the shadow forum, I'd like to see a melee shadow build survive past level 60. my evasion is so high i only insta rip sometimes ----- Bug Fixes: People were using cyclone for actual melee builds, so we nerfed it and made blade vortex.

" if you have a really realllly good claw to couple with bloodseeker (instant leech with no reduction or restrictions unlike VP) and basically just go life nodes+dw block, I think its possible. the problem is getting a reallly reaaaaally good claw. |

everyone uses totem templar seeing how it avoided the nerf bat

" In Nemesis this was possible, in this league I don't think so, but we'll see how it goes my evasion is so high i only insta rip sometimes
