Shade LW temp

[Neo]

Friend of mine asked me to make him a Shade Pierce temp, this is what i came up with.
Please let me know what u think.

- 2 Legendary Weapons
- 3 ML10 Vest, pants, Cloak
- 4 I can drop 7 COLD if i want, do i need anything else more?

97/97 str
99/100 con
97/97 dex
30 AF
380 HP

26 Body
25 Cold
26 Heat

19(25) Energy
21 Matter
24 Spirit

25(30) Crush

You need spell pierce...

Cheers for taking the time to comment mate, i got a few wonderings/comments tho, i havent played for like 3-4 years so im abit rusty.

1: Ive heard about SP in shade temps but i also heard that it doesnt make a big difference.

2: What exactly does SP do? is it tested properly?

3: Is it worth sacrifizing stats/other bonuses for?

4: Ive been looking around here for temp ideas, and there seem to be only 1 guy promoting SP temps, and that guys temps suck IMO.

also everyone can just post stats on give items and a proper Template

5: I didnt make this template for anyone else but me and me friend so if im "faking" a good template that doesnt hurt any1 else but us 2. I only want to know if there is anything i desperatly need to raise, is there anything i can lower?

Tbh leggy temps are so 2 years ago, for a solid 6-9 months myself and others ran them and people cried to high heaven wondering how people could do so much frontload) but personally what you will want come next patch is as good a mh free template as you can make.

So are you saying that LWs doesnt work now, or are they just not as good as they used to?

I understand having the MH free if you like using weapons with different stats, but is there any other pro?

Im saying with the way assasins envenoms are being changed that assasins will no longer be able to anytime swing and drop people in seconds with frontload, so i would suggest a shades of mist template with MHI so you have the survivability to still win, im gonna be on my skald when new patch goes live been on a 2 week break or so atm to let the noobs get brave then it's time for the return of the Hypnobitch

I understand what you are saying but i just want to know if LWs are viable as dmg output compared to "regular" weapons?

As for survivability i reckon 5 (FIVE) armor heal proccs (only hands are crafted) will do the trick

What changes are they doing to envenom?

 

[Punishment]

Lw's are viable and are an important component in any classes weapon arsenal, but pure lw damage based templates are more based on spike damage than continuous dps which coming next patch will be a bad thing.

Heal procs mean jack on a NS tbh, your wearing a gimp suit in reality, SI vest slayer/SH arms ml10 legs rest omnis is as good as it gets really and next patch dd envenom damage get's cut in half and alot of hybrids are getting small boosts.

Don't use LW if you intend to sit in labby as everyone has a bb thus they have bb resists. Going up against a ns or sb with 50% heat resists whilst using heat weapons will make you cry.

With melee weapons your opponents can pop the 10% melee resist buff, but with other /use items they could have cool down timer etc.

With cl resists they permanent have an additional 10% magic resists as you have no cool down on recasting
