[3.0] How to Flicker. Terminus Est Edition!
|
Now now on to the real questions, what are the best mtx to go with all this and why are we not a badass marauder?
Show us the swag Korgoth |

" Slayer provides: - Free melee splash (frees up a gem slot!) - Overleech effects doesn't stop! Amazing for no regen/less regen maps! like picking up loot on choas/fire area effect? NP! - Free bleed/stun immunity (if picked, free flask slot!) - Culling! - Onslaught on killing rares/uniques for 20 seconds. - Increased area damage - 50% reduce reflect physical, more damage on kill! (depends on personal preference). - Piety likes the butt of the duelist. Last edited by Molochmane#0328 on Aug 3, 2017, 1:32:27 AM

@Unfeared
It simply does a lot more damage and has better survivability. Honestly there isn't a single aspect where Oro flicker outshines a Terminus Est flicker. As far as fun goes, they provide the same amounts of fun ... after all theya re both flicker builds so they recieve that nifty 30% more fun on top of the already existing 150% increased fun. @torokfremen Molochmane already covered the "Why duelist?". Now when it comes to MTXs this is how i roll now :  Head: Infernal Helmet (maybe i should add Fiery Eyes) Chest: Demon King Body Armour Boots: Demon King Boots Gloves: Demon King Gloves Sword: Edge of Madness skin transfer + Carnage Weapon Effect Extras: Tentacle Wings, Vapour Flicker Strike Effect, Gloom Herald Effect, Legacy Portal Effect Pets: No pets, i won't be able to sleep if i make a poor pet run after my flickering ass.

Hi KorgothBG, first of all. your build is amazing. Second, Which gem are you going to replace for maim. i was thinking about dmg on full life?
|

Probably Melee damage on full life indeed, Fortify if you don't care about dying. Though i'm not yet sure if it will be better, i have to do some testing first and see how it feels. It seems that maim will deal a bit more damage, but on the other hand only if you actually maim the enemy (and there's only 30% chance per hit)

no changes in the notes for this build? played it last season with HH and loved it

The only change to the build is maybe using maim instead of melee phys on full life, but that's about it. And of course it is possible that a new unique item will fit well here, though we'll have to wait and see all of them first. Everything else, the gear, the skills, the tree, it's all the same.

So Abyssus nerf, we get 100 Crit mult less :(?

Yup, though it's not nearly as bad as it sounds, i'd say you'll hardly even notice it.

Hey Korgoth, thanks for the guide! I'm planning on running this for 3.0, as I've always wanted to play Flicker Strike, but have always been too attracted to whatever the flavor of the month build is.
Quick question: Path of Building has Ruthless as a greater DPS increase gemwise over Maim. Do you think that this is probably correct or is there some mechanical issue throwing off the calculations, possibly stemming from Multistrike? Or is there some other reason why We're thinking of taking Maim instead that I've just missed? |
