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.

Why's that? You take no damage from bleeding with Endless Hunger, so I'm not sure why it matters if the bleed lasts longer than your leech?

so https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Haemophili0a will be good enough?

Actually, Haemophilia is really good. It has reduced bleed duration, which gives u extra protection from accidental death. dang. nice





Added a new short section "HOW TO SELF-BLEED FLICKER FROM LV68"
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.

2H: https://pastebin.com/mu49ws0C
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.
