Reaper Build Suggestions?

[White Rabbit Alice]

just testing a thought up on a Necro/Nightblade...

going to be focusing on alot of Pierce and Cold Damage/Life Leech Devotion/skills.

any ideas or skills or things/items i should be looking for in particular? I took Tsunami as First Devotion, and stuck it on the Life Leech Attack to level up. the other Devotions im looking at are the full Bat, Ghoul, and possibly the water spirit.

Skills: Reaping Strike (Tsunami),Necrotic Edge,Dual Blades.Amarasta's Blade Burst,Spectral Binding (W/Spectral Blast),Bone Harvest (Harvester of Death Upcoming),Viel Of Shadow, (nights Chill Planned as well.)

Unique Planned: Harbringer Of Death)

if you wanna do cold reaper i'd suggest either
Morgoneth (endgame) Shadow Strike (can still level as cold shadow strike ofc without the endgame set)
or default attack replacer (shard of beronath) spectral axe/Malkdar blade +wps
for endgame you also have the option of cold drain essence and blade spirits
you technically can sorta level with cold drain essence, i just don't think it's a good skill to level with, doable, but not really "spectacular" compared to the other available skills in reaper
plop in boneharvest with maxed soul harvest "regardless" of what you do (almost)

as for devos, personally i'd suggest you head for Yugol, Leviathan and Amataok for blizzard proc - depending on endgame items (lighting ->cold conversion) you can consider Ultos, but it's a bit more "niche"

oh sorry, i meant Reaper Strike, not Drain Essence, my bad.

Shadow Strike, should that replace the Burst?

Shadow Strike, should that replace the Burst?

not necessarily, "depending on your comfort/preference"; you can plop ABB on LMB and hold that down like a pseudo auto attack, and then still focus in shadow strike build and ahve that on RMB or whatever other button you favour, and then just spam it off cooldown
or alternatively vice versa/your reverse it and have shadow strike on LMB and ABB on RMB or whatever other button and then manually click that when off cooldown (or once every 3secs to renew Lethal Assault buff)
*reason i'm recommending shadow strike is, imo, it's just fun as hell, specially to level with, and items are easy to get for it

oh. im mixing up the KB Mouse and a Game Pad...

i use the Mouse to toggle the passives,some UI Things and keep the pad for active skills, such as Bone Harvest and attacks,movement.

but i see. i think i get the order to use it in.
