[edit] Counters

• Triggering the traps of the Obsidian Behemoths
• Getting to much hits of the Charged Blacknesses
• Forgetting to upkeep Shadow Form due to low energy , lag etc.

[edit] Notes

• This build has become energy intensive due to a lower shadow form duration, which means you are gonna need the zealous daggers &/Or scythe.
• This build can also be used to farm raptors outside of Rata Sum in Normal Mode extremely quickly. Does not kill boss though.
