I think you'll struggle in Hell and there's no chance you could take the Ubers.

Your FHR is ok and your resists should be ok. Other than this, you have misplaced skills with too many points in them and poor quality equipment. I presume that this is a hypothetical build - otherwise you've just spent a lot of time (and 120 skill points according to your post!) on a build that will be slow and quickly overwhelmed by even a moderately sized pack.

Ok - you'd have great damage and 50% CB. You will however, have to kill each monster individually while ignoring everyone else trying to kick your a**. Instead of investing so heavily in venom, CoS and Weaponblock, why not consider spending a max of 5 points on each of these (if you absoloutely have to...) This would free up 45 points. You could use these points to get an 11-shot Death Sentry, a Shadow Master, some charge-up skills......

This is an ungainly build - why not try using one of the stickied ones, or at least glance at them for inspiration....

I think he must spilled Mountain Dew on the "go to the builds that make sense" button on his keyboard. You know, the one right next to the "spell this word right" button.

I wasn't gonna mention the esoteric spelling :scratch:

i do not wish to use traps with this build i will have shadowmaster just not maxed along with mind blast i will b using tactics to moderate the size of larg hords that are able to reach me so i will not become overwelmed i am a melee build and cos prevents archers and spell casting monsters from seeing me until i have taken out their front line of melee atackers i have play tested a similar build up to lvl 79 and i have looked at the stickied builds for insperation i like the kicker and i have one at lvl 82 i have just found dragon claw to currently b a fun playing tactic as i have been using it to great advantage with this build which is based on speed

the / between clawmastery and fade was to designate that i have not currently decided on which of these two skills to max or possably to split the points between them

punctuation, please! even my brain gets out of breath whilst reading that post

Dragonclaw

weponblock

I wouln't max CoS, WB, CM and Fade. You will have plenty of +skills. Spending more then one point eventually is quite a waste. AR won't be much of a problem. I personally don't like venom and dragonclaw either, but those could be maxed for decent damage.

I'd rather go for TS/Dtail or Talon, combined with BoS.

as i have been using it to great advantage with this build which is based on speed



But you only have 20% ias - this build has nothing to do with speed! Also, it's impossible to make suggestions as you still claim to be using c.115+ skill points..

You asked for opinions, but it sounds like you maybe don't want them after all. I'll stop making suggestions :lipsrsealed:

before you tear it apart.. i did a similar build untwinked and beat the game.
1) max shadowmaster instead of cloak of shadows. CoS only needs 1 point to blind archers, and like you said, you don't need further AR. meanwhile, a shadowmaster is extra damage, throws around traps, and serves as a good meat shield and another target for monsters.
2) check the diminishing returns on burst of speed, fade, and weapon block before allocating points. i put in 6 points to weapon block and fade.
3) of course it wont be easy and there are easier ways (DS comes to mind!) but it was certainly fun. in your equipment look for FHR, CB. get some elemental damage charms.
4) patience is a virtue.
