erm if ur use to tanking stuff then thats why ur dieing,
sins are delicate at higher lvls and so u should be more focusing on good use of skills then just hitting stuff
u can start hitting stuff when they dont hit back:grin:
- at the above poster, stupid answer... ww is ineffective in pvm which this char clearly is from the skill set up, and therefore not a trapper either...
i would advise working on skill use, ie mb cos dsentry all of which u dont have
they are essential skills and all deserve 1 point atleast
i would extend this to vemon and dtalon as well

first of all.... dont use uped bartucs especially if your a kicker. they require 36 more prerequisites into str and dex which could be better used in vita. resocket your left hand bartucs with something more useful like a 15res jewel, um rune, ect.
if you can upgrade your goreriders for higher kick damage.
now for skills.
20 venom
2 mb
1pt rest of shadow tree
20 dtalon (assuming this is pvm)\
1 pt in light traps tree for death sentry
you can do pretty much whatever you want with the rest of the points

order... plz reerad orginal post, this is a phoenix striker and therefore the upped bartucs make sence
altho upped tucs might not be the best for a striker, they are certainly good and a nice boost 2 physical
upping gores raises the str req and you dont need the dmg, only really vs bosses and even then ur just going for cb
and make sure u have enough dex but leave it there, and make sure u have some boost to claw block on ur sin as ur 2 claws negate any real reason 2 invest in dex

what if u switched ur gangel for a nigma or coh for more resits and skills??
my boots are upped too, and i do have one point in mb venom cos.
for silent shaddow: how exactly should i utilize the skills? first cos and mb? does that mean i need to take out the monsters one by one...? cuz im more into sorc-like style where i can take down all of them in a second...

his sin has 20pts into dtalon which is greatly effected by boot damage... uped tucs offer maybe 20-30 more physical damage and require 36x2 = 72 points more into prerequisites to be able to equip.
personally i think his sin would have much greater surviveability with those 72 extra points into vita than str and dex.

You should be using cloak of shadows a lot (1 point wonder). It offers much help in being able to hit stuff. Death sentry is helpful in cleaning up. My pheonix striker tears through hell mode but i do have to be careful because i will still die if i get careless. As well, your shadow should be taking most of the hits because it works so well as a meat shield while you do the damage. A point in mind blast is pretty helpful as well when things get chaotic and you need to make some room for yourself.
Holy quad-post, Batman.
8k is plenty of AR for PvM. Just up your level so you aren't fighting monsters higher than you. That will make a bigger difference than squeezing out more AR. Another way to help is using Cloak of Shadows (at 1 point base) to lower enemy defense.
What do you hope to do with your skill setup and equipment? The two don't seem to mesh. It also looks like resists might will hard for you to max out. (If you are using Fade, then your kicks will be a bit slow.)
So, uh, what do you want?

again, order! this is a phoenix striker! not a pure kicker,
personally i use cos all the time bc it allows easy hitting, extra defence and lowers enemies defence,
ffs, if ur not going to be kicking all the time then it makes no sence to try and boost the phsyical dmg as all they would be used for is high life mosters and bosses, in which case the physical dmg is useless anyway. imo dont upp the gores,
mb is for when ur over whelmed and need to stun/convert some enemies to gain your else some breathing room
Dsentry is for when you have some corpses and then the traps explo them for massive dmg :shocked:
i would imagine a setup like this:
(assuming you use fade not bos. if u use bos then change the 40/15s for ums/res)
2x upped bartucs 40/15 in primary claw, 15res in secondry claw
guil face (some pwnage mods here, 2 good 2 miss) 40/15
lionheart (personally i prefer this over GA as it offers actual res/stats instead)
or duress or <other more expensive rws ie CoH>
mara
dracul
gore rider
raven/manald heal (for mana leech)
