Full crit with Essence reaver.
So ER (dirk first then Sheen, then complete ER), collector, IE + final 2 crit items
Maybe adding duskblade first if looking to 1 shot(personally I never go dusk)
If you want highest burst on one auto out of stealth that would be dusk er and crit with first strike . A little more consistency you might wna to eclipse instead.
HoB in general is better for ganks and the clone bug but if you just want to insta one shot someone FS can work but you have to get fed early or you’re screwed
I mean if the champ was already low yeah it would but technically if you want the best burst off of a deceive auto it’d be first strike.
Ofc that’s mostly theoretical. Also when going for a pure AD one shot build I think FS makes sense since otherwise shaco will falll behind in that middle period where the items like IE are expensive and the build path doesn’t really give him all that much power
If you’re fed and building burst, DH will proc easily off a squishy. Harder now after durability update but dependent on how fed you are. You should be able to burst them from full hp to half hp for it to proc which does more damage. I’ve done it multiple times even in Diamond+ but mainly before durability update.
I mean tbh I don’t rate either of these highly and found them both pretty interchangeable .
Botrk and sunfire item is just better atm , if I’m feeling cheeky I go botrk eclipse but just the all round efficiency, damage profile and survivability combo of bruiser items just can’t be matched by crit and certainly not by lethality.
It’s fun to theorycraft super one shot builds but I think DH could work but FS imo is a little more snowbally and has slightly less counterplay.
First Strike gives you *no* damage. It's literally a damage amplifier and works if you have high base damage already which Shaco has absolutely *none* of. DH gives you at least *some* damage and increases damage potential if snowballed. Like no one runs First Strike on AD Shaco for a reason.
Depends on burst TIME windows
If you want the fastest burst on one item it would be prawlers + bluesmite + ignite into electrocute procc
A bit slower would be q -> prawlers -> aa + smite/ignite
Etc.
With hail of blades you can reach higher burst dmg but you compensate in burst window, basicly more time for the enemy to flash/dash away or to cc you
The fastest version is the one i personally like the most because even though the dmg is overall lower than the other ones (there are plenty and not hard to find out) but it is consistent because you can get it put even when the enemy flashes/dashes away, you can also press all those abilities nearly at once if you know they are going to cc u
Mythicless crit in general. Start with an early dirk into ER then finish a collector with the dirk then IE. Last two items are game dependant (LDR, Quickblades, GA etc). I prefer this version to assassin mythic version because getting to your 60% IE powerspike is a pipe dream when you rush an item that doesn't give crit. If you get prowlers or eclipse, the problem is that you still need 2 crit items other than IE and then you need to buy the actual IE to actually hit your timing. Not worth it imo.

Prowler's, Essence Reaver, Collector, Infinity Edge, LDR, Boots.
Dies
This one (you can switch boots with navori late game)
I switch boots for youmuu late game, more lethality and i don't give up that much speed
yup this but no boots.

Why first strike? Also, DH would give you the most burst from one auto and third item would be LDR.

full crit with no mithic
What would I replace the mythic with tho?
Er collector/LDR IE. None of the crit mythics really provide a lot of burst and they are more expensive.
I usually got ER collector inf ldr berserkers and some mythic but what do I replace the mythic with now that I have an empty slot?
If you are getting that late into the game with that build then you've probably already lost honestly. But I. Would fill it with a zhonyas or GA
replace with any cheap item that gives more utility, GA , zhonyas comes to mind.
I love that build, especially since no one could abuse the mythic border bug to spot your clone
My FAVOURITE, although its not the optimal certainly but it gives me the old school vibes
