I have a couple of question for others who use The Dancing Dervish or The Dancing Duo:
What links are you guys using?
Is it's damage respectable?
Have you considered a utility build for the sword rather than damage?

Personally I'm on the fence about it's usefulness outside of Rampage. The little dudes get kills every once in a while and clean up trash. This helps, but I don't think they need a whole lot of damage for that. On the other hand I'm curious to know if others have found or thought of a utility setup that would make them more useful like curse on hit?

Hi guys, op build.

But there is small problem with bosses, easy t16 mobs, but bosses take a while.
Can you check my profile to give some advice?

Also, what cluster passives do you recommend?

Thanks!

There are two reasons bosses are taking you so long, and might be some trouble.

First, you currently have very inefficient pathing, and waste quite a bit of passive points on weak nodes. Brinksmanship and Iron Reflexes are both not good on this build due to how point hungry it is, and you miss out on a bunch of nodes which are huge dps increases.

The other issue is that you are using way too many points to fill in res on the tree. You are going to need to get an astral plate based 6 link with a lot more res, and swap out your starkonjas for a high life/dex rare helmet with good res. That should let you cap your res without too much investment on the tree.

After those issues are fixed you have essentially double the damage you did previously (after filling in those extra points for a couple new notables and getting the clusters described in my previous response.

The other main issue to resolve is that your have Iron Reflexes allocated. IR is absolute garbage on this build for a reason usually overlooked. IR says that "evasion from dexterity is not converted". As a dex stacking build, the majority of our evasion comes from flat dex. That is not converted and is instead just lost. This leaves your defenses MUCH weaker than they would be without IR, so that node is a 100% do not take.

If you're willing to invest even more in the build, the final upgrade is to get rings with at least 50 flat dex. Your rings both have really bad flat dex right now (one of them has only 8 dex), and upgrading them to have at least 50 would be a massive damage boost.

Here's a updated PoB for you build: https://pastebin.com/bS6Pdn7T

Res is not capped because you would need a better chest and rare helmet for this variant. I'd recommend that you work towards this, or the build will never be any good. It's very point hungry, so it can't really afford to be using 6+ points on getting res that you can get for 0 point cost on your tree.
