This is only for leveling so where can i find late game build for flicker with Red Trail + Golden Rule?

hmm thats been around for a while so theres many build guides, but none that are updated.... sigh......

theres not much to it tho with slayer. You need all of these:

1. golden rule jewel
2. red trail boots
3. source of chance to bleed (check out the unique options you have. chance to bleed support is the simplest option). at least 20% chance is desirable. https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Bleed#Unique_items
4. Endless hunger and brutal fervour ascendancy nodes
5. make sure you're dealing at least a little bit of phys damage (only phys can cause bleed).

The thing u need to be careful of is to not let the bleeding last longer than the leech. these are both 5 seconds by default, so don't take sources of "increased bleed duration" for example. Getting temp chains on you will make the bleed last long too.

so https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Haemophilia will be good enough?

If anyone is interested I rather haphazardly put together some POB setups for end game flicker strike with self bleed that I will be working towards as my league starter.

Dual Wield: https://pastebin.com/be3LYJq4

They are low on defenses but there is enough extra +life nodes nearby the paths that you can easily adjust. Only required items are really The Red Trail/The Golden Rule and Haemo gloves.

thanks but these are not so good... It works, but if would be better if you made these changes to the tree:

1. set your level to about 90. not 100
2. Disciple of slaughter (frenzy charge node) isnt worth it
3. you dont need all those bleed nodes. 25% chance from gloves is all u need. also, disfavor comes with bleed chance, so u dont even need gloves and u definitely dont need the bleed nodes
4. pathing through travel nodes is suboptimal
5. you can't flicker with 6% unreserved mana. you need like 25%
6. take all 2 point jewels. dont take 4-point jewels unless theres nothing else to take.

for axes, i suggest you travel left to marauder area instead of shadow for the axe and melee crit nodes.

Thanks for the feedback! I already made some modifications to drop that frenzy nodes, bleed nodes, and some leech dmg nodes in favor of focus on axes. Lower level and same dmg! What do you mean by travel nodes?

Thanks
