[2.5 Video Guide] Assassin CI Blade Flurry End-Game Build! [HC/SC]

Thanks for your reply ffhighwind :)

I actually managed to get that 85 this evening, and one of the things I did was remove deep thoughts to get the double curse! That and a new belt made a good difference! So I am very pleased to hear I am at least making some good choices heh.

I will work on the other things you have suggested so am sending my thanks. I had been reading through yours and other advice earlier too but I think I got a bit overwhelmed by the slightly different advice. One thing that confused me is that a lot of people seem to link to daggers that aren't bino and completely different builds. Will definitely try that etup one (right now in fact :))

Hello! Please help. I have the poor dps and dont know, how to boost it. What i mast do?

DPS 2250, ES now 8k.

@ffhighwind


would you mind taking a look at my build? I feel like somethings missing besides a Voidheart and a 6L. It's the 82 Assasin.

Thank You. :)

Read the advice I gave dirtybeatfreak on the previous page. No anti-freeze so make sure you roll that on one of your flasks. No anti-stun so get a Chayula or Valyrium. No reliable source of leech so respec to Etup's build or get Dual Curse right now. Throatseeker and Force Shaper are both not important compared to leech so drop those nodes to make it happen. Witchfire doesn't make sense with Heretic's Veil. Get a rare helmet and use another aura or drop Witchfire for a useful flask.

Yea you need a lot of help and you seem very poor like this is your first character this league. I'm not sure you can afford to play this build.

1. Get a Physical Doriyani's belt. Blessed Orb up the strength if it's low.
2. Get rid of your your bad flasks: mana, Chalice, and Sapphire. You shouldn't be using the Bismuth either but keep it if you need the resistances. Use an Atziri's Promise and Silver Flask. Lion's Roar is also required but I doubt you can afford it. For the rest of the flasks I recommend a Quicksilver, Stibnite, or Jade.
3. Roll anti-freeze and anti-bleed on two of your flasks.
4. Get a Valyrium Ring and later on replace it with a Chayula amulet when you can afford it.
5. Get a tiny bit of mana leech for long range enemies or curse immune ones. Get it on your jewels or craft it on your gloves.
6. Consider using Etup's passive tree instead of Dual Curse. Etup is a streamer and the #2 ladder player in HC.
7. Get rid of the 2 life nodes on your tree.

Once you get all of that done spend some currency upgrading your gear for more ES/resistances. Consider dropping the Warchief Totem. I highly recommend Blood Rage, a PCOC setup, and Vaal Haste. Read over some of the previous posts as well.

I've read that you suggest dropping Ancestral Warchief and switching it to a PCOC setup but I was wondering what that setup would actually be? also adding Blood Rage to weapon/shield and swapping, but i'm a little confused as to how you do that? was wondering if you could explain it a little bit.

You can easily move around your gems in your weapon/shield/gloves/boots. It just takes some coloring. It's really your choice how you add PCOC to your links. The main point is that losing power charges is a big problem.

PCOC setups:
1. 4L PCOC shield charge or whirling blades.
2. CWDT PCOC Firestorm (maybe add Golem, Vortex, Immortal Call, etc to this). Requires no effort to keep power charges up but will kill you when fighting Lightning Thorns bosses like Shavronne and Promenade boss. The main problem with this is it requires a lot of links.
3. PCOC Orb of Storms (possibly add culling + item rarity to this). I personally don't like this setup but have seen Mathil use it.
4. Death's Hand - gives power charges.

Blood Rage needs to be in your weapon/shield so that swapping turns it off.

Based on your changes:
Basalt with Armor% makes no sense. You don't have armor and it isn't a Granite Flask. Get rid of your Topaz Flask and replace it with a Stibnite or Quicksilver. Make sure you always roll both affixes on your flasks using Augmentation Orbs. You still don't have a Valyrium or Chayula which will definitely kill you and hurt your DPS during breaches. Drop the 25% mana regen by witch and get Melding. Start leveling 6 Disciplines in your weapon swap so that you can get a level 21 Discipline.

Thank you! I follow the guide correctly, but at the moment pumping complicated because of the small DPS. I already looks this belt. At regen mana suits me, there is no downtime. Flasks bad, is gradually improving.
