Trying to build a dual-claw kicker

[:1]Helm: Gully Face

Armor: Duress

Belt: Verdungo

Glove: Dracula

Boot: Upped Gore Rider, or Shadow Dancer (Can't Decide )

Ring1: Raven Frost

Ring2:

Ammy:

Claw1:

Claw2:

SO basically, the main reason I want to build a dual-claw kicker is because I think Assassin looks so much better wearing dual-claw rather than weapon/shield. I care way too much about how my char looks.

The problem is right now, I'm not quite sure what claws, ring2, and ammy to look for.

FOr my first claw, I'm thinking Fury Claw. If I use that claw, Open wound is pretty much covered. Second claw, ring2 and ammy would be some rare items, or crafted items with some nice mods i guess. I'm missing Crushing blow, I believe i'm only at 65% if I wear Gore Riders instead of Shadow Dancers. So i'm not sure how to fill that up. I also need mana leech. since I have none for my current setup. And for both of my claws, it would have to be greater talons.

As for the purpose of this build, it's just to play for fun, just kicking around in chaos runs or baal runs. But eventually I am planning on using this build for uber tristram.

20 Dragon Talon

20 Venom

20 Fade

THOUGHTS on my setup? Should I wear gore riders or shadow dancers. What kind of mods should I look for for my second claw, ring2, and ammy?|||A Strength (Amn+Tir) primary claw would give you 25% more crushing blow. It doesn't have ias, but with GTs you only need 5 ias from anywhere to hit 3/9, 20 for 3/8. So put a 15 ias jewel in your guillaume's. You could then get your open wounds from gores.

Jade Talon would work nicely in the off hand for resists, fhr, and +shadow skills. Put a 15 res/x jewel in it for even more res or a -requirements jewel to lower the dexterity cost of equipping it. Best might be a 15/-15 if you can find one.

The second ring would be a good place to find mana leech with a rare ring.

Mara's is pretty hard to beat for an amulet. A high res/ar metalgrid might be nice for ubers.

Just some ideas!|||Pretty much agree with Karth.

The only thing I would say is that Jade is a bit slow. The stats are unlikely to be as good, but 2os magical Shadow Greater Talons or Witchhunters GTs with 2x Resist Jewels may help you get to the required kick breakpoint easier. Also if you care about looks, I prefer my claws to always be of the same type, and you will certainly want GTs for the speed and the requirements.|||so i've been reading around the forum and looking up some youtube videos and I became very interested in pvp kicksin. From some info I gathered, Open Wounds is essential in pvp right?

Is my gear setup possible to handle both uber and pvp?

I'm gonna add some points in wake of fire, but is claw/claw viable in pvp?

Alot of pvp kicksin guides recommend weapon/shield.

and I think I'm leaning on shadow dancers instead of up'd gore riders

and something i like to share, back when i was young and stupid, i once found a stormlash in from hell meph, and oblivious to how valuable it was, i sold it to a merchant. I wasn't into ubering around that time so i had no idea how special the weapon was. Every now and then I cry just thinking about that.|||PvP Kicksin Guide by wizAdept|||Do you guys know where's the best place to look for shadow dancers??

The ladder is about to end, i'm running out of time!

This is so frustrating!!

I currently have a blizz mf sorc in ladder, mf'd in ancient tunnels and basically doing baal runs hoping to pick one up.

IT's driving me insane|||best way would be to trade for them? searching for an item purposefully doesn't typically deliver what you want.

also if you care about looks then make sure duress is in a gothic plate. it looks absolutely awsome.|||I'm also working on a trapsin for mfing.

I'm basically looking for some witchunter greater talons.

Should I go charlsie and imbue a couple greater talons to get some

2 assassin skill 3 Light Sentry claws?

is there much success in doing that?

oh and also I got a shadow dancer!! got it through trading|||If you want +2 sin//+3 LS claws your best bet is shopping Anya in Hell. Just run back and forward through Pindle's portal to refresh her inventory.

Be warned they will take a long time to shop, I've spent just about 10 years looking on and off and never found anything close.

Again trading may be your best bet, but expect to pay a lot for them.
