way of the infection sliver sin

......................

very impressive

GJ there ... waiting for your guide

Nice collage, may I ask what the one with all the tengu stuff is?

Edit: No, I mean where were all those tengu farmed? :P

Awesome build! Im gonna have to try that cause right now the only use I have for my sin is ab and uw.

Just curious, why is [critical agility] in the build? If its for extra armor, can't you get better mileage out of [great dwarf armor] or [armor of earth]?

edit: Just saw the rest of the guide, now i understand you're using daggers for energy management.

Also wanted to add, instead of [jagged strike] [signet of infection] can't you achieve nearly the same results with [vipers defense] and [radiation field]?

i think it's for the energy
because of the faster attack speed, you get more energy from criticals and zealous daggers

......................................

Looks good, though I'd use [Viper's Defense] and [Radiation Field] if energy allows. If not, maybe [Glyph of lesser energy] and [Radiation field]. Using it twice would cause max degen with high enough rank.

well, if you're not using daggers then [Glyph of Lesser Energy] with [radiation field] and [vipers defense] can be used. The thing is, mulitiple radiation fields won't stack after the 5 seconds, since same conditions don't stack. The poison from vipers and disease from radiation will stack for a longer duration.

Also to OP:

I think you can still use req 9 daggers with 7 in dagger mastery. Using a lower rank to requirement will decrease your damage output with daggers, but not your hit probability. It will be the same with double strike and critical hit with 7 dagger master anyway. Since you're using daggers as energy management, you can actually use a req 9 inscribable dagger with +5 energy inscription to get more out of your energy pool.

.............................................

As I type this, i'm autoattacking master of damage with req9 zealous daggers of enchantment with critical agility up, 7 dagger mastery, 8 critical strikes. So far, i'd get a Crit before CA runs out.

gonna check to see of CA is still up.

And still going.

Conclusion:
You can keep it up for a while, with 7DM and 8 CS with req 9 daggers. 8 in critical strike is only 12 seconds of CA. 7 DM and 8 CS roughly equals 18% crit, which is not alot for a shorter duration. Even with req 7 dagger, you would run into the same thing.

Yeah, Viper's Defense and Radiantion work pretty good. even Viper's alone with GoLE in there works good, I used them on Mantid's and Kappa. But I guess some people have trouble with energy, so they like to use daggers. I personally haven't run into any energy problems, if my energy gets low, I usually stand around and wait to regen... I will only use GoS, DP, and SF until I got enough energy to use other skills. But that doesn't happen so often. If you want to use dagger skills for energy, use [Golden Lotus Strike] and [Lotus Strike].

Or, you can take out Critical Agility, which really ain't needed and put in [Way of the Lotus] with [Golden Phoenix Strike] and any dual attack such as [death blossom]. This way you don't need any points in Dagger or Critical if you don't want to, since it takes advantage of having a full 16 shadow arts if you would rather be safer. You can also use the Ward with any weapon for extra damage, earth staff does the most, but pair of daggers can be alil quicker.
