[2.5]Facebreaker Crit semi-RT Icecrash Assasin [SC]



0. Intro
Disclaimer: casual, non-meta, just for fun build.
This build is my own point of view and I may be wrong in different aspects of mechanics so feel free to change it the way you feel and tell me my mistakes. :) Still working on it.
Also, sorry for spelling mistakes, english is not my native language.


1. The idea
For tl;dr watch this showcase.
This build started in Talisman league, when I saw this awesome Rigwald's Curse talisman and decided I want to make a facebreaker build, officially my first because other failed in leveling process.
So basically this talisman is enabling claw passives for unarmed advantage, and I can inflict critical strikes with Facebreakers. But my accuracy was super low(about 70%) - so when I hit, I hit hard.
I played a bit with this build, did lab and abandoned it, because of new league. Then came Breach league and I saw Lycosidae shield. And it was perfect for my build. Now I'm always hiting the target and hiting hard.

2. Levelling
Originally I started this build as Viper Strike but it didn't work. I recommend using another phys skill with claws and then change it to facebreakers.
Passives: priorities HP, then damage. Crits last.

More to come soon ;)


7. Outro
Still have a lot work to do, but build is working now and I'm happy with it. Doing up to T9 maps, bosses are hard but doable.
This is not meta build and it feels a bit clunky but I like it anyway. Not HC-viable because of low HP and it's pretty hard to max resist with so many uniques.
Sorry for kinda low level, but I don't have much time lately but I wanted to share this build idea anyway. :)
