i was waiting for your feedback. let me put those in. 1 sec

boardman21 · February 23, 2021, 4:22pm

Never mind apparently ive reached a max amount of “Edits” so you gotta wait 7 hours…

Llama8 · February 23, 2021, 4:18pm

Nice to see dancing strikes get some love.

Cool tip: you can Shift in place if you hold the cursor toward the middle of your character. It’s pretty easy with Dancing Strike’s set up because you can judge where to place the mouse to shift in place where Dancing Strikes doesn’t dash with it’s attacks (0,0). It’s helpful with bosses so you can stay in place (or bosses where moving is bad) and do things like double Shadow Cascade in place or whatever you need to proc with Shift. Idk maybe you could add it to the guide for a tip for newbies.

I came up with almost exactly the same build. Guess I don’t need to make a build guide now

I am pretty new to this game, so i got a general question when looking at the build. I started it yesterday to try it out, and i still cant get my head around the question of when triggering a different skill, does this take our specced skill tree into account ?
So for this build, when we Shift, with the ‘Sleigh of Hands’ passive which throw shurikens at nearby enemies, does this throw shurikens based of our skilled shuriken skill ? That said, when i have skilled into ‘Blade Shield’, does it then still throw normal shurikens on Shift or does it cast them around me ? And if so, why would we skill into ‘Sleigh of Hands’ for 5 Shurikens when we get 5 (3 Base + 2 more from ‘Thin Shuriken’) from the Shuriken skill itself ?

it is using the skill tree but to a maxium. If you take the blades rotate around you in shuriken tree the ones proc’d by shift will do everything in the tree, but the maximum number of shurikens thrown is by how many points you put into it in shift.

Playing a similar Bladedancer and I really enjoy it.
Thank you for your build. Helps a lot optimising mine.
