Well recently stopped trying to bring chaos planes farming back from alternative builds =(. And decided to join the whole SC thing, but the problem is that ive searched the forums and PvX wiki for a decent build on Vale Sin, all i get is an ele running a sin bar that IMO can be equally ran by sins. So i was wondering, if anyone minds putting their heads together to make a comprehensive Vale Sin Guide. Screen shots would be great too and a video? even better =) thanks alot.

I was wondering this too. Couldn't you, in theory use the terra bar on a sin and put in like earth attunement for e-mgmt? Maybe take some points out of shadow arts so you can put it in air magic to help sliver armor recharge?

Chillblains is to strip IW so they can't hurt the npcs. Then you wail on them with your daggers and the Necros help.

ty You really cant replace it because you need the energy to cast chil. The only replacement i can think of is black lotus strike, which is also a lead attack so you need to drop DC for a off hand atack. Im not too sure though. I suggest you try perma instead, which does not require any eotn skills.

pits sin [[pits sin;Owpk4Jf7olyEPiOjMoA2FonTADuD]] Deep wound > cracked armor. Take "Finish Him" instead of shell shock.

People still prefer eles over sins just because eles can do more damage. and unless your in a guild group, i find that A/Es have hard time getting in.

As to learn the roles of the eles, its faster to find a guild that does this everyday because they will teach you even though they know the runs will take longer.

I have two questions:

What rank is generally needed for Radiation Field? Does it even matter that much?

Shouldn't the Pools assassin have some kind of anti-KD, like Ward of Stability or I am Unstoppable?

Thanks

i use this build for chaos plains, but works great also for pits!

[deadly paradox] [shadow form] [aura of holy might] [attacker's insight] [chilling victory] [lyssa's assault] [zealous sweep] [eremites attack]

fast and safe for energy management!

ok so yo uthink eles do more damge over time sin do you need to learn that, pople just dont hink thats why

witha sin sliver recharges 6 sec faster thena ele in 1 mi n a sin will do more damage with thena ele . take 4 horsmen for example i will always beat the eles on his side.

and deep would over crack armor is bull , pu it this way i do moutains ith my build in under 6 min from start on good runs and bad i do 10 min tops. the deep would is nice but fniish him is junk .

fniish him only works when there below 50% shell shock works at all times and is spamable finish im is not
wheni do moutains i change targets to much becuz thy die to fast for finish him to have any use, same thign with pools and plains , been usingit for smits too it spikes slver bad where i dont need any self heal.

please learn this one thign ele dont own for damage, the more you can use a skill the more it will do over time and in uw dmage over time is better

pits sin [[pits sin;Owpk4Jf7olyEPiOjMoA2FonTADuD]] Uhh wouldn't it be better to use paradox over swiftness? Plus if you're using consets, a speed buff isn't really necessary right? I'd replace that with I am unstoppable or ward of stability.
Edit: I'm mostly looking at the pools build. I'd opt for feigned neutrality over death's charge if a ward is subbed in.

Maybe I am missing something. What aspect of being a sin makes skills recharge faster than any other class?

Eles can raise there earth magic higher creating a longer duration and more damage. Besides, [glyph of swiftness] is not necessary for shadowform if you are using cons.


Btw, fixed some of the grammar there for you so it doesn't hurt so much to read.

you infact can replace lotus strike. at the cost of a shadow step you can take critical eye+zelious daggers of enchanting+5e and then the standard 4 sec recharge blossom spamming chain.
