Blade fury assasin (Diablo 2)

So far, a draft of the assassin's guide using the blade fury skill.

Introduction
From the very beginning it is worth deciding on one important point. Our character initially loses to almost all other characters in the game, in terms of damage, survivability, ease of play, and so on. He will not kill anyone in pvp, he will not be able to clean up locks alone for 8 players, he will not be able to easily pass uber. ... The minimum gear for no matter how convenient the game cannot be called cheap. Well, okay, the main thing we need is new builds for the old Diablo2 game in the new 2015.

So, here's the main thing we need to know about the blade fury skill of the killer:
Blade fury is such a skill for the killer, it is very similar to the inferno of the sorceress, the same preparation animation, and then the continuous release of shurikenchiks, instead of a thin stream of fire. However, the inferno of the sorceress, because of the cut damage, is even more wretched than the blade fury, but this is by the way. Unfortunately, the blade fury has a physical basis and the attack rating is important for him to hit, plus this attack can be blocked by the shield. Moreover, the creators of the game did not bother to give this skill at least some kind of bonus to the attack rating, from which we will suffer for the rest of our time playing for this character. And, probably, this is the only skill with physical damage and a miss chance that does not have a bonus to ar. (although even the super-useless poisonous dagger of the necromancer has it)
And now a little pleasant thing in this barrel of poop, the speed of releasing knives from hands is NOT affected by fcr and is NOT affected by bonuses to ias and the base speed of the weapon. It always emits an asterisk every 6 frames. So you can forget about thresholds / breaks for attack speed.
The main influence on the damage from the blade fury's shuriken is the damage of the weapon in the right hand (3/4 of this damage for one-handed weapons and 3/8 for two-handed)
Plus the skill level affects this damage. But don't look that there is such a miserable increase of 101-103 damage at level 20. Let the monstrous formulas used by blizzard to calculate the damage of the blade fury remain a mystery to us. But in fact, pumping a 20+ level blade furik will give us 1000 damage from a shuriken and more. For a hike, this bonus goes to the basic attack of the weapon, which is then amplified by the force and ed, perhaps even of the weapon itself, but in any case I won't tell you the exact formula, because I don't know it myself (funny smiley)

Yes, let me remind you that the blade fury skill is not some kind of fire or forest magic, it deals physical damage and is affected by most of the modifier and properties of your weapons and equipment. Namely on it works:
Mortal Strike
Crushing Blow (he is cut as from a ranged attack)
Open Wounds
Knockback
Prevent Monster Heal
Ignoring enemy defense and - target def%
Life and Mana Leech
Chance to cast on Striking
Hit Freezes Target
Hit Blinds Target
Hit Slows Target
Hit Causes Monster to Flee

As you can see that almost everything affects him, except for the following properties:
Chance to cast on Attacking
Pierce Target

Skills:
Balde fury - 20. That would at least somehow raise the damage from the blade furik.
Death Sentry - 20 (our skill of mass destruction, in our case the explosion radius of about 16 yards turned out)
Burst of Speed ​​10+ or ​​Fade 10+. Depending on how much resistance we have and how much we love fast driving.
Fire Blast - 10+ (synergy for Death Sentry, so that the trap has more charges)
Lightning trap - 0+ (to increase the lightning damage of Death Sentry, after all, we will constantly use it)
Claws mastery - 0-20 If you use rare ethereal claws with good damage as the main weapon.
In general, that's all. You can also pump venom or shadow, of course. In the case of poison, it will also receive a 3/4 or 3/8 penalty depending on the weapon.


Equipment:
Weapon - Death in the ethereal berserker ax
Alternative: Ethereal Rare Claws with a bonus to ar, a chance to curse, and holes. but finding them is unrealistic, so let's stop death.
Shield: Storyshield with um rune or 40ed charm
Armor: Fortick. Without options
Gloves: with lava gout / fights / souldrainer
Helmet: gulyama face with rune um or jewel + 40% ed
Belt: vigor (against souls) / thong
bots: goreriders
amulet: angelic wing
ring: angelic ring
Ring: equal / second angel ring. Although the speed of throwing shurikens is not affected by freezing, it is rather unpleasant when the speed of movement decreases and traps are slowly thrown.
Swap - CTA with spirit or big polerm with a good runeword who casts 20 ench with a 50% chance if they kill anyone.
Inventory: Skillers for traps - 5-6 pieces, with or without health. And also small charms for plugging holes in resistances.
torch, anikh

Mercenary:
We take either a measure with a might aura or an aura of precision. Equipment depending on your wealth
1. Merck with infinity, fort, aderiel hanging. If we want to play comfortably and easily hit enemies even with a tatim flawed ar.
2. Merck with reapers toll, some kind of useful armor and a useful hat. Plus, the curse will further increase our physical damage and slow down especially sharp enemies.


As a result:
Health will be 1400+
Damage 5-7k from one star.
Attack rating about 3k +, with obi enchi about 10k.
75% block. many ds, many cb, little def

Comparison with other characters:
Amazon archer - play dry on ar. We win in survivability, we win in damage to one target.
Paladin Zealot - seriously lose in vitality if we wear fights, we lose dramatically in vitality if we don't wear fights. We have comparable physical damage, but due to low ar we lose in damage. We win in massive damage thanks to the death trap.
