TIPS :
Spoiler

- You should always socket bloodrage inside a weapon and double swap everytime you want
to get rid of the debuff.
- Avoid every "while moving" buffs, it doesn't work with charged dash.
- BOSS option : smoke mine for more dodge possibility & Grace instead of arctic armour+herald of ice.
- Mom could work with Trickster's ascendancy, not sure about the tree through.
- Charged dash's stages : going in a straight line will grant 9stages, jiggle a bit while channeling
and you will get 12 stages. Doing an arc grant 12 stages too.

Perfect example of why we lack chaos resist, incursions are fine until T14.

This is the worst quide for a player that started the game. No explaination to basic leveling or first steps nor a good overview on what to skill in which order. Just a bunch of buzzwords that are only known to people who already spend hours in this game

Good, charged dash isnt a build for players who have just started the game.
I actually gave this build a whirl.
Getting up to 66+ was painful as all hell but it paid off in the end. Pretty fun to play.
Survivability isn't quite there yet but this is fun to play.

8/10
If you're reading this, I'm probably on another year-long ban.
Thanks GGG.
