I have a slvl 85 dualclaw assa, wearing Nat set, and she are a mean killer in Hell.

You gear looks ok, but if you could find a highlord amu, you could improve your killing speed.


Do you use CoS, before you attack ?

What lvl is your TS ?. If you dont have max TS, do it ASAP.
Max TS is importent because you need a high TS AR, so you can charge up very fast.
Even without TS, my assa kills most monsters in one or two hit in Act 1.

If you dont have a Merc, then hire a Might merc, because he will boost your damage.

Good luck

I heard tiger strike is bad for d claw assasins u can do basically the same damage just attackign iwth dclaw in the time it would take u to charge tiger strike

By the way this is on ladder guys

btw whats cos?

thanks for advice

CoS is cloak of shadows, the skill that send the whole place dark and blinds the enemy, it'l lsotp them attacking you untill your right next to them lowers there def and increases yours. :thumbsup:
i heard the same about TS and dual claw but i havent really experimented with it.

l8rs :howdy:

I have the same build and it does work really well

Max CM
Max DC
Max Venom
9 SM
1 pt in MB, DS, Dflight
1 in all the prerequ
rest in FoF (against PIs)

Gear :
Full Nat
Perf Upgraded Bartuc
Drakul
String (instead of IK)
2 ll/str/res crafted rings
Highlord's Wrath

It kills really easily (so easily that i have to play in /players 8 mode in solo :p )

The better charms you can use with her are max dmg/ar charms with other mods. Using a might merc can be really useful since it boosts your dmg, and with Drakul's Life Tap combined with MB for Crowd Control you don't really need the Holy Freeze Aura.
