How can you get so much armor?

Iron relfexes mainly. Ill have 86% evasion from passives. With maligaros, abyssus, 500/500 shield, lvl 20 grace, and 90% increased armor granite ill have:

Abyssus: 650*(1+.9)
Maligaros: 120*(1+.86+.9)
Shield: 500*(1+.86+.9)
Grace:1400*(1+.86+.9)
Granite: 3000*(1+.9)
Sum*1.5 for determination: around 18000

Hopefully i can get a 800/500 chest at some point to increase that further. That will be a level 80 character as far as passives go, so potentially even higher. I found the 25k armor on my marauder is necessary against reflect mobs.

I managed to upgrade my dagger and chest. Not anything great but I couldn't wait and grind for anything decent.

Mandatory gear/dps/build:

I apologise for these horrible quality pictures.

Problem I'm having is 94 mana cost per strike and 11APS.. I already switched one of my rings for extra mana leech but it still doesn't seem to cut it. I've tried with total 6% ML but it still managed to run itself dry, I want to try it with 10% ML and see if that does it. Otherwise the dmg is freaking insane, I jumped there from 55k splash and 70k single and I still have a few lvls to go on my gems. Everything just shatters.. I'd like to see a party full of conduit flicker strikers, D:.

NB phys. reflect can suck it.

You cant leech more that 20% of your total mana per second (if you didnt inserted quality mana leech gem). So, to sustain 94 mana cost and 11 APS with mana leech, you should have 1723 mana pool. That's too muchm indeed. Try to insert gems with less mana cost, and take a dagger with lower AS.

Your dps is amazing, but your problem is obiously your dagger, 1.75 is waaaay to fast for this build. My 1.4 dagger is too fast imo, 1.75 is nuts. That's why your mana cost is killing you. I have only 2% mana leech and never have a problem except on the 50% maps. A faster dagger also makes your flicker do less damage per charge than a similar dps dagger that is slower but it looks like clearing mobs isn't the issue, but try to find a 1.2 speed dagger and you'll be golden. And goddamn I want your chest... holy balls

Am I supposed to take some % Life nodes along the way and respec out of them later?

Can't tell where the breaks are in the tree... Going with 0 % Life nodes seems insane. First time considering a CI build. All so new to me.

well, you can certainly take some life nodes, but if you have decent life gear and good dps gear, leveling really shouldn't be much of a problem. you can either level up using cleave, or just go with flicker + ls, as it kills stuff insanely fast (a few deaths are inevitable though) i did that and made it to merciless on basically 800 life and 250 es. i then specced into ghost reaver and started wearing es gear, giving me ~3k ES + 500 life. I'm farming docks with that with no issue at all.

Sweet! Thanks for the response. Wonder how much a 15-18 Quality Flicker Strike would run me...

I Could use some help. My dps in town on flicker is only 12k and with full frenzy (6) and power nodes (4) it only reaches 27k (with melee splash.

here is gear



here is my tree

sorry, kinda new to the forums, so i dont know how to do all the cool hide and show stuff.

I dont really want the physical damage helm right now, cant afford it and i have one back in standard play.

20% for hp, 12.5% for mana. Thats why i go for soul taker.

Like I said earlier, for this build you want your flicker strike to pack as much punch per attack as possible, which is why you want the slowest dagger possible, that will ensure you're one hitting more mobs, and makes mana a non-issue. If 2% leech isn't enough, then your weapon is wrong.

To everyone not using soul taker:

If your dagger is faster than 1.4, get a new dagger. You don't need to change gems, that will just result in less dps, making your flicker even worse.
