[3.20] Level with VAAL FLICKER STRIKE from LV28 - LEAGUE START

So any recommended updated guides for 3.9 after this? i have 6ex and 300C and idk what to go for since ive never played flicker or the only melee build i played was cyclone... So im kinda lost there (still havent created the char)
wth is wrong with this build?
I'm too fast for the game.
Sometimes I got lag and die with no idea what happened.
I'm even crashing the game.
Is this happening just with me?
Make PoE 1 offline mode when PoE 2 comes out.

the enemies this league became a lot harder than before. you need more dps and tankiness than ever before . so that hurts flicker. For flicker, DPS is defense, cuz u can spend less time being close to enemies.

as for the lagginess, yea you have to adjust performance settings. if you really really need a performance boost, turning of sound effects helps amazingly.

you can try the slayer bleed build. It gets expensive though if you want to reliably clear red maps and bosses, but it's cheap to start playing if you know what you're doing.

Personally, right now I'm doing raider impale phys flicker with dual swords and farrul chest. This is also expensive. maybe 15ex to get started. My dps is like 3.5mil but tankiness isnt so good. I'm currently stuck at lv92 clearing t14-t16 maps cuz i die. I have the tribal fury and strike enemies gloves, so I dont need to use melee splash or ancestral call. Click on my profile to see.

I like farrul cuz you never have a "cold start" vs bosses. You dont have to worry about generating frenzies from 0, or bleeding enemies based on chance, etc.

i dont see any gear on your character but i see the tree.

im just gonna give u a few pointers that apply to almost all melee builds.

1. you only ever need 1 mana leech node. Right now you have 6. if 1 is not sufficient, then your problem is that you're not dealing enough damage or you're reserving too much mana. If you're not dealing enough DPS, either increase DPS or get a mana flask temporarily. taking more mana nodes just wastes points. Usually, I use a mana flask until about lv70 because I dont have enough DPS at lower levels.

2. dont take jewel sockets until you're like lv70-80 (usually), especially if you dont know what jewels are the best or if you dont have a lot of currency to buy good ones.

3. take all the life nodes that are close to you. you missed one cluster on the right side.

yea it works. but don't use abyssus cuz you're gonna die a lot
Hi there.


Thank you for this guide, it's been extremely helpful. I was wondering what your thoughts would be about using a Tabula? Would it be recommended for a gem setup early on?


I have the level 28 sword you recommended to use with Flicker Strike, but was wondering if there would be a point where I can link Flicker Strike on the Tabula, and what you suggestions would be?
