Shadow Master mechanics

Does Shadow Master have the same level of skills as my char? For ex. I might have a lvl 20 Lightning Sentry. Does my shadow also have it at lvl 20?

You shadow master uses skills that are 3/4 your skill level (including plus skill items) IIRC, she also gets synergy bonuses if she has used the synergy skill (this synergy bonus is also at 3/4 your skill level including +skills)

Bear in mind however that all this may be wrong, I am just preaching from a guide I remember reading. I am sure one of the code-divers can give you more info.

I myself have been wondering about Shadow Masters. How viable are they in hell difficulty/what skill level would I need for them to be viable?

bigger is always better.(almost.)

depends really on what build you are going for.

for a kicker a 20+ shadow master is a good bonus.

for full synergy builds there usually is little points left over.

just look at your build you are planning on and then come back and post.

If memory serves, shadow masters use their skills at 2/3 the level you have them at, plus 1/2 the master's level. So if you have level 20 sentry and level 20 master, then that's 2/3 of 20 (your level of sentry) which is 12, plus 1/2 of 20 (your level of master) which is 10. Your master would be using level 22 lightning sentry.

At slvl 17 shadow master is immune to elemental attacks.

It's 1/3*Shadow Slvl rounded down, plus 1/2*your Slvl rounded down IIRC...

.... yeah... what the hell was I smoking earlier?

I thought it seemed weird.

That's not quite true, at lv17 master have 65 res all. However, spawned with res equipment or fade, she can have over 100. Which render her immune.
