Soul Reaver Reave CI crit shadow Updated 2.6!! Assasin 4 Million DPS

Thanks a lot, that really explained a lot of things he OP seemed to have missed.

I might also go with carrion braid + 2 x rare rings .... just have a difficult time finding one that gives me dex + physical + accuracy + es

but will keep an eye out.

If you know any rings like that let me know, i might be interested in buying :)

with that build you will want to run auxium at high lvls anyway.

How does this build compare to a flicker strike build in terms of clear speed damage and survivability?

flicker is shit this build is good if you wanna reach high lvls... if you just want to #yolo around flicker is better.

Choose a skill that suits you better. Reave has a bit lower clearing speed, but offers better control over your actions. Both are vulnerable to desync however.

Flicker isnt shit, especially with godly gear. It's no-brainer, and some find it ridiculously boring... but not weak.

Why not just have a flask that dispells frozen/chilled ?

you can get perma frozen to death if monsters have extra cold dmg mod. so 2-3 charges wont be enough.

talking about ambusher setup. the #1 reason ppl play with ambusher is so that they do not die to reflect that much. 399 max dmg vs ~440 max dmg is a big difference. esp. on a build that has basically no armor.



talking about pcoc in 6l

due to the fact that with endgame gear you have too much dmg anyway, its just a convienience thing to run with pcoc in 6l. esp since you loose reave stacks using another skill its just way better clearspeed since as long as you run around with 8 reave stacks you are hitting the whole screen (using increased aoe for clearing maps and only switch to conc effect for bosses (if you rly need to))

since i play on standard, i only play with ppl who have close to full mirrored gear. its rly nice to see that they 1 shot like 30 monsters in a few seconds, but its not fun to see how much xp/h they make at 95+ :) due to deaths and the games bad netcode

in addition to that, reave + increased aoe is the at least affected by desync melee skill in the game atm.

If someone plays Flicker in party, he does it wrong. Flicker is solo-only. And i believe that Flicker, Reave, Spectral Throw and Lightning Strike - all are viable for such a build with godly gear, so chose whatever suits your playstyle best. Hell, you can use Cyclone too, or even Whirling Blades, to troll others :).

However, bad netcode, ingame lags are among the first reasons why i stopped playing PoE. Farming 6 hours just to die once due to desync and lose all that progress? No, TY.

yeah thats why i am saying you need to adjust your build as much as possible to not be affected by desync.

thats pretty much the main reason ppl play reave. in addition to that, if you run a flicker build, how do you wanna lvl up if you dont play in party. thats not rly possible at high lvls since you'll go to brokeville pretty fast :)

Hey, btw for some reason, having curse with higher level than my cwdt doesn't work ? Although it has no damage.... does anyone know what this is, or how this mechanism works precisely?


Also how does pcoc affect our reave stack? Im really confused about that
