CI Dual Strike Shadow (39) ONLY Take Chaos Inoculation at level 31 (Discipline!)

Gems:
Dual Strike + Increased Weapon Elemental Damage + Faster Attacks + Increased Critical Damage + Mana Leech

Whirling Blades + Increased Critical Damage + Increased Weapon Elemental Damage + Faster Attacks

Wrath + Anger + Discripline + Grace + Reduced Mana Cost

Elemental Weakness + Temporal Chains + Increased Area of Effect

Blood Rage + Phase Run + Increased Duration


Gear:
Only use gear with Energy Shield and/or Evasion
Weapons: LEVELING 2x any fast 1-handed with huge Elemental Damage.
Gloves: HUGE +x/+x Elemental Damage and 12%+ IAS
Belt: Energy Shield + Flask stuff
Necklace and Rings +x/+x Elemental Damage and/or +x% Elemental Damage
Rest of Gear:

No need for movement speed boots because whirling blades is your main way of traveling.

Pop diamond flask vs rares mobs, farm with whirling blades. ( whirling blades bugged right now, only hits max 3 targets! )

You really should rename your title, how can you guide someone in something if you have never done it? You are like my friend that had never snowboarded that thought he could teach people how to snow board.

So you have a preternatural ability to detect when someone has done something or not, do you?

Ups, linked wrong build.

2% mana leech and 3% life leech just from passives.
Thanks for the updated link ;)

this build seem to be a great Idea,
I will try it in 27 hours :D

lets see, shadow isn't out yet, and unlikely he has made a character just like it that ventured over into those nodes specifically. I am fine with someone making lots of builds and posting them up for feedback and such, but just calling it a guide is silly to me.

Belive me you can use this and it will work great...
What else do you want to see in a guide?
I won't update the route untill I actually tried him.
