No jewelcrafting needed, as the builds stacks dex with amethysts/fal runes Very newbie friendly, uses only 1 skill actively for both aoe clear and single target dps Mastering this playstyle is very crucial to not die every other minute, on this, and many other squishy builds. Utilizing this, you can run, press hold, throw an attack, release shift, and keep running. To achieve that, there is a mechanic in diablo 2 (and many other hack and slash games): holding shift, and then using a skill will make the character stop in its current position, and use the skill in the targeted direction. This playstyle can be also kept when the gear is much better, and could facetank enemies, but it is just much better to not risk it, and keep kiting and dodging. What we gained insane single target dps from whychwind and its upgrades.ĭuring the leveling process in normal, nightmare, and early ubers in hell, the build is very squishy, one must learn to kite and kill efficiently, before enemies can reach melee range and slap the poor assassin into an other dimension. We also lost pinnacle, no more insane amounts of stamina. We lost beacon, since doom is now a lvl 90 uberskill, so we lost a big chunk of movement speed. Block cap is now 50%, which can only be increased by using whychwind with its upgrade. Maelstrom's dmg was buffed by a bit, and mana cost was reduced by a huge amount. This sin utilizes Pinnacle, which means we have half defense, but it also has many other defensive layers: very easy max block because of huge dex stacking, lots of flat dmg reduction from Prismatic Cloak, lots of free physical resist from Shadow Refuge, tons of avoid from Perfect Being, and lots of movement speed from Beacon to kite and outrun bosses and enemies that get close to you. Most of the damage on maelstrom comes from the dex scaling on the skill, so dexterity is the only thing you want to stack on this build.
It is a safe ranged build that can do every single uber (other than high tier dimensional labs and Samael) untwinked, sniping enemies from across the screen.
I have seen many people asking for tips on how to play this buid, so here I go.
