[2.6] THE NEW FAKENER | DISCHARGE | SUPER FAST STRANDS | Cospris Malice | 9k+ ES | STILL GREAT AOE

What's that add-on for fast poe.trade search? And where can i get it?

Hey! I'm currently playing this build as trickster. Doing really well, guardians down etc. Thanks a lot for sharing!

My question is, why do you play with the 4l cyclone setup on horror gloves as trickster instead of the 6l cyclone setup (3G3B) like the assassin does? Is it because you don't get enough crit without the horror gloves? Haven't managed to get a 6l so haven't been able to try it out yet.

Thanks!

Thanks!

yes

I'm currently following the Trickster-way of this build and I've noticed that I struggle to kill bosses and sometimes even tankier monsters, having to backtrack and cyclone them for 2-3 seconds to get the kill.

Would spending 3 points to get Elemental Overlord for a constant (if you crit in the past 8 seconds) 40% more elemental damage be a good decision?

EDIT: Lv. 88; I'm on a 5-Link chest, and no Crit. Gloves. No Vinktar's as well, I just bough Death's Door.

Reporting from the front!

More questions:

1) Should priority be on getting AS or melee /global crit chance?

Spell crit chance once 6 stacks are up is already at 95% - so stacking more spell crit or gunning for global isn't as efficient as pure melee crit.

2) Any benefit from Dying Sun aside from hilarious nuke zone?


Notes:

Swapped out Assassin's Mark for Elemental Weakness which shreds 48.4% resist on top of EE (but potentially making reflect very dangerous - I've noticed huger spikes than before).

Tried out Blood Rage in a ring - an insane clearspeed booster.

3 Frenzy Charges gives:

1) 12% MORE damage.
2) 12% Increased Attack Speed.
3) Discharge cold damage that's likely to freeze.

Blood rage itself gives: 20% increased attack speed (for a 20/20). Damage from Blood Rage is mitigated by Endurance charges, Immortal Call, and Molten Shell if you are running it.

With 32% attack speed on top of everything the difference to charging around is noticeable.

Drawbacks: dangerous for bossing as it's a 4% ES drain / sec, and slightly useless as you will have no frenzy charge generation without adds, so it's just a 20% buff.

Do note you can turn off bloodrage and the drain at any time by removing the gem or weaponswapping it out (if you put it on a shield)

It's a terrible idea, you nerf your crit multiplier which should be in the hundreds!

Vinktar REALLY helps with bossing due to shock AND leech, and Lightning Pen. Failing that, OP has pointed out before that tricksters HAVE to run crit gloves or it simply will never hit the damage required to sustain on bosses.

What may help slightly is your cycloning pattern. Aim for the boss's feet and just go left and right in small motions. DO NOT go in circles around the boss - you are likely to travel further with each cyclone this way and thus hit and crit far less over the same period of time. Cyclone distance matters. (Furthermore if you don't crit on one cyclone cast, ALL the hits won't crit, opening up a leak window where the boss can wear you down).

Thanks a lot for the fast answer, I'll edit this in a second and show some of my items / stats. I think I have some flaws in my items / jewels. How do I link stuff here? :D

Hey there,

Assassin here.

I m going for a Dual Curse Setup with CWDT (low) + Wardlords Mark. What should be my second Curse?

I ve heard about a Steamer going with Poachers Mark. Wouldnt that kinda mess up my Elemental Equilibrium (Ice Dmg)?

So should I go with Warlords + Poachers or Warlords + Assassins Mark?

Hey, first of all thanks for the guide, this gotta be the funniest build I've ever played!

I just started Breach league two days ago and I'm wondering what should I get next :

I went Trickster way, and I've got Cospri's, 5L Voll's, couple of cool Jewels, decent Helmet/Boots. Should I rush straight for Voll's amulet, or Vinktar's first? Or even the Crit Gloves?

Thanks!

Is there a reliable way to freeze things for Ice Bite to work? I capped reses without the need of purity and swapped to herald and bite, but I dont see any mobs getting frozen at all, also I feel like I need to have constant conc equipped with discharge on trickster or I dont do enough dmg to clear 10+ maps or breaches on them.
