Description
So I’m looking into the viability of the Venom assasin, seems like it could be interesting.
There’s some gear that’s going to be standard: Bramble, trang ‘ols gloves, shadow dancers, etc
But looks like there’s some options for weapons. I like the idea of ranged weapons, and have narrowed it down to:
- Witchwild String (2 sockets, free magic Arrows)
- Buriza-Do Kyanon (super fast high damage and fully piercing, just 1 socket though)
-warshike (then either with Blackoak Shield for the + dex or headhunter’s glory for the facets)
-big runewords - Mist, Brand or Faith, probably Mist would be best, but idk if i feel like a runeword for this build, feel like i need some facets to get all in on the Venom
I think i might have a good Circlet, if not probably Andy’s is best? Or COA/ Giant Skull with 2 psn facets?
I’ve got a few psn small charms (+175) but i think because of Venom they only add like 11 damage - still would add up.
Then to get Lower Resist I’d run an act 5 Frenzy barb with dual Plague, low armour Treachery and maybe Crown of Ages to increase survivability.
I’m leaning towards Warshrike so i could use a shield for the facets, it also has some piercing…
Amulet-wise Probably maras would be best, or maybe highlords? I think I have a 2/20 assassin crafted Amy around somewhere… not that she’ll be teleporting.
Skills would be max Venom, Burst of Speed, probably the Shadow Master, i think Blade Sentinel takes advantage of Venom (at a reduced rate though), and maybe Blade Shield
What do you think?
