Hello. I have been leveling my spectral throw elemental buzzsaw shadow and I feel like I am always getting steamrolled by exiles and certain unique's (especially ones with gap closers) in Cruel/Merciless, unless I am substantially overleveled in the area I am in. I recently just got owned by an exile Torr Olgosso in an area that I am underleveled in. Although I really feel that some specs may not have this trouble. I'd like to be corrected on this if possible.

My current stats and gear are not great but I never had this much trouble on the OP searing bond templar... I am following the leveling progression as suggested by Mathil but I feel like I need to get extra geared and need to out level an area to not completely get wrecked.

I'm testing this build to work on invasion but I have had a lot more deaths than I did on my SB templar and I am losing a little hope. Given that this is the winning spec for ambush world first atziri kill, I'd really like to know what I'm doing wrong. I would really appreciate constructive feedback.

Also I thought it might be worth mentioning that I have played this build on Scion prior to trying it as a shadow to level 82 on standard. I really like this spec and it was my first character to build to a high level, my progression was fine because I would over-gear and level before progressing. Now I'm really looking to balance optimal progression, especially in new leagues.

Current stats

Level: 51
Resists are currently: Fire/Cold/Light = 69/74/75
Life: 2k

Current gear

Progression passive points spent

61 Points Shadow progression as suggested by Mathil on his guide

Note: I understand that in comparison to the OP searing bond that this spec probably will not surpass it in terms of efficient leveling, however, I'd really like some hints or ideas on how to progress easier when building a character like this from scratch.
