Scylla, as everyone knows, powerful but very weak and a late game character. With this build, I aimed to strengthen her in both areas. Even with this build however, she is still rather vulnerable. I found the best way to play with Scylla is just to deal unexpected damage from a distance. Unless you felt like getting a little more up close, you can optimize her for lifesteal, but she will lack power and defense. However, it is made up for with survivability.
Now, without further ado, allow to explain the methods of my madness.
Seek and Plunder
Pros
|
+ Excellent escape + Incredible Power + Doesn't Chew Through Mana |
Cons
|
- Easy Target - Rather Squishy - Easily Double Teamed |
Quick Learner(Passive)
Abilities gain an additional effect and increase Scylla's power when at max rank.
This passive is really what makes Scylla, Scylla and what defines her as a late game character. However, I don't believe you should max each ability as fast as you can. Simply have patience.
Shoes of the Magi
Time to start off Scylla's carnage! And what better to do that than with a pair of shoes?Simple really. Power. Scylla's bread and butter.
Soul Reaver
Soul reaver is a very nice item just to help hit hard early if you need it. I will use this to replace warlock's sash if I don't/can't worry about stacks, obsidian shard if I just need fast damage, or very rarely rod of tahuti if I need damage fast and no time to wait. A very useful item indeed.
Multi Potion
Scylla being Scylla, if you get hit you will need a potion. And the way she uses mana, even though you have plenty to go around, you might need a potion. So, the multi potion is perfect for Scylla.
Like i've basically said throughout this whole build guide, Scylla is weak in terms of taking damage, but is no stranger to dealing it out to the enemy a tenfold. Generally I like to play Scylla from as far away from the enemy as I can rather than up close and personal. With this build, I find it gives Scylla the defense she needs while still giving the power she requires. With this build as a base, I find her very versatile for later game if adjustments are required. Scylla may be a difficult character when starting, but she's well worth the time.
As always, please feel free to rate, comment, and give me any feedback. Cheers, mates!

It's all preference of course, but that's why I myself use it. I find Gem of Isolation just works for me.
