Energy blade or cobra lash?

Hi, was curious which skill would be better, energy blade (energy sword thingy) or cobra lash (throw poison darts)

I am sort of built for cobra lash, but energy blade looks cool :(

Granted, I just reached act 2 with this character, but I would like to hear some thoughts and opinions, etc.

What do you think?

This was the only 3 link dex armor I found so far

Side question, any other way to display an image on these forums? Kinda tired of posting to imgur

id stick with cobra lash since energy blade is a way of converting your energy shield into a weapon and not an attack. Energy blade takes away some of your energy shield, therefore reducing your sustain, it kinda requires a dedicated build...

Just leveled cobra lash to act 4 and it was a breeze. Would stick with that for sure
