This build had been designed for the following use: This build was in the category great before being archived. |
The HB Shadow Prison Sin uses a powerful spike chain combining lots of damage, a knockdown, cripple and a deep wound. It also only relies on a hex on the first strike, and Cripple only about 1 second later making this very hard to shutdown unlike its older version.
