First get the Shavs. Then get CoE. Then get a Prism. In that order. I used a Ruby Ring to overcome the CoE -Fire Res.

Purity of fire or elements might also be a temporary fix if you have the mana.

Hmmmm Le Heup rings are not as good as you think. Have you tried swapping them out and see your dmg? I got 2 100 percent perfect le heups and i still was at a dps loss once i hit 70 when swapping them for even semi average rings (crit phys dmg). Then when I got rly good rings it wasn't even close. These the rings im using atm I'm not saying Le Heups are bad just I couldnt even believe myself how much dmg I lost subbing them out.

" Yeah I dunno. I'm already at 88% crit chance. 20k flicker tooltip 10 times per hit. Only way id swap is if i had perfect phys/ele dmg rings w 16+ to all res on both. IGN:Flickfrap

It's not the crit on the rings that adds much damage, though it helps. It's the accuracy mainly, and then the +10-20 physical damage. Those two stats make the rings much better than le heup. Get +mana too, and even +IIR and you will have 2 slots for whatever else you need. Good rare rings add huge amounts of damage.

Hey!
Firstly, thanks for the guide. I've been playing for about a month or so now and haven't done an ES character or used daggers, but I love Flicker (First character was 2H flicker duelist) so this build interested me a lot. I had a handful of relevant uniques sitting around so I figured I could jump right in. Brightbeak for leveling, Perandus Blazon, Mightflay, Crest of Perandus, and a Zahndethus' Cassock too. I flew through normal faster than I have on other characters and am heading to Cruel Piety right now. I had a little bit of growing pains at the end of act 2 and start of act 3 but I found a dagger in my stash that I forgot about that replaced Mightflay. Also switching to Discipline helped a lot, and I imagine it'll get much better once my Reduced Mana gem levels up and I can use more auras. However, I had one question - did you ever try a crit dagger flicker build with life instead of ES? I've seen a lot of CI and low life dagger builds but not many life ones, it just struck my curiosity and I didn't see anything like that noted in your FAQ section. I don't have a high level character laying around that I can just build to test but I figured you might have looked into it. IGN: Frazetta

" Sitting at 91% chance to hit atm with no mana issues whatsoever. If i find high phys plus ele dmg rings ill prob swap out. Otherwise I find all stats on leheups helpful. I like max resists while running in mf gea. IGN:Flickfrap Last edited by LoPan#2848 on Feb 18, 2014, 12:22:04 PM

In terms of this build specifically, if you go life you can't reserve it all with auras, so you lose 3 auras + pain attunement (quite a big difference). Crown of Eyes (no life there) and RF probably have to be dropped too. Wondertrap no longer works either.
More generally, life vaal pact is not very nice, particularly with blood rage. The CI version doesn't have any downside to those two. This version takes 3 or more times less blood rage damage and can always pop the gem out of the socket to regen ES in an emergency. Also, life usually requires quite a few more nodes than ES. We have roughly 12 ES nodes here. I don't think it would be easy to get an equal amount of life in 12 nodes. It's even more pronounced compared to the CI version, since they have the unmatched 12% more node. IGN: Victario
