Are all of the places on the first page still possible using this build or will some of them be better with a dagger SF build?

I have both ranks maxed, or all actually... But, you really don't need to max out Asuran rank as you will only be using [air of superiority], which should last long enough with any rank, aslong as the skill duration last as long as sliver than you should be all set. The only rank I recommend maxing would be Vanguard, for using [ebon battle standard of honor], which helps to add armor ignoring damage to Sliver.

Shadow Form still has a damage reduction, so it pushes you do get as much damage as possible from your skills, and any little extra damage is good.

I don't know if any one has suggested it but "By Ural's Hammer" increases the damage of sliver by 25% and stacks with intensity and "ebon battle standard." It's recharge is 30 seconds (same as sliver) and only 5 energy. So it is an excellent skill for the extra slot or even to replace intenisty.

It's a very popular choice, ESPECIALLY in UW sc's. So yeah, it's been suggested and it's become very popular after it's most recent buff.

Yeah I actually didn't catch that buff, I thought it could only be used while having under 50% health. But they changed it didn't they? It would definately help out with the build, I'll have to test it out. It just sucks all my Skill icons/pictures/templates are all messed up. I guess someone hacked guru, and messed it all up.

Hey, Rezz, I gotta give mad props for the build. Thanks a bunch for all of this! You're very clever!
But:
Do you use any particular build for farming DoA/Gems? It has it listed on your list, and I Gloom-farm regularly, but post-SF nerf, it's difficult to do it, even NM. Any suggestions from your brilliant mind would be appreciated!
Thanks, Leona

You can farm Torment gems in Stygian Veil, farming the Shadow Army. You will need to take a Hero with Frozen Soil, and any other helpful Spirits such as Edge of Extinction, and Enchants such as Succor. You can easily pull all the the patrolling groups of Shadow Army together, and gather them up in a ball inside range of spirits. This way it only takes 4-6 minutes a run. They drop alot more Torment Gems in Stygian from Shadow Army than farming in Ravenheart.

You can also take acouple hero Bonders to farm Margonite gems in the City of Torc'qua. Bonders are needed to reduce the AoE damage you take from the Margonite Dervish. Taking heros for farming rare items like DoA gems doesn't hurt your drop rates, so no worries there. I also used the Hero bonders for farm Mysterious Armors in that challenge mission there.

Haven't seen the thread myself, but those Luxon assassins do have 1 Touch skill each. Just try it out I guess. Might need Dark Escape and Feigned while gathering them up to reduce the damage, then after they all used their first usage, put up sliver and you should be all set. They should go down rather fast. I never tried it with A/E personally, but it should work.
