[3.24] 🗡The Nightblade🗡Nightshade Tincture | Incorporeal | New demo video up
" Honestly, I don't think it has ever been. For years, the most popular version of Blade Flurry has been Berzeker with General's Cry. But I don't like General's Cry. And the rework of melee skills seems promising for the Nightblade. Bye bye Ancestral totems. As much as I liked them, it was long due. This will free 4 sockets. Maybe we can put Cyclone instead. The banner won't reserve mana (or life in our case) and will have better effects. The Tinctures are back and this is very promising. Infused Channeling is improved (8% dmg reduction against all types of dmg). Once again, this will raise the debate whether this support is better than Energy Leech :D All in all, 3.25 looks good for the Nightblade. 20 patches since 3.5 and still running !

I must add that I'll miss Vaal Ancestral Warchief. That was such a satisfying skill. Even though it absolutely didn't match the Assassin theme ^^
I didn't release any demo video for the build in 3.24, for lack of time. I had one that was almost ready, where I was showcasing the reworked Unholy Might (100% phys dmg converted to chaos) and some XP farming to level 97, with the new shrine strat from the Atlas tree. But I'll recycle parts of this video in the next demo for 3.25. This build has been asking for poison dmg for years. We use Bino, after all. With the rework of Perfect Agony, maybe it's time. I'll see what I can do. Rahsaan's Workshop, a post to showcase a dozen of my home-made builds : https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3432443

PoB 3.25 beta : https://pobb.in/X7U3KLO5OmqK
DPS : 3.8M Compared to 3.24 with Ancestral totems : 3.6M ; without : 2.27M So we have even more DPS but now, it is at all time. This will feel very very good. * War Banner can now grant 20% more DPS when placed. * Suggested Tincture : Fulgurite, for 35-40% inc effect of shock, if you have lightning dmg. /!\ Possible mana sustain issues. * The recipe for Incorporeal anoint will be : Prismatic - Silver - Silver (Elusive decays 50% slower, removed at 20% effect). * No changes to the skill tree. * Possible finetuning updates later. Good luck Exiles, have fun and see you in 3.25 :) 20 patches since 3.5 and still channelling !

" Do you think that this is enough DPS to comfortably do most of the content in the league? I recall hearing the benchmark to do most content now is roughly about 10 mil minimum, do you think there's any way to push the build up in that realm? |

PoB 3.25 beta #2 :
https://pobb.in/dAE4URH8W3nx Good news, PoB has been updated with the new base values of crit chance for weapons. DPS : 5M * With two Bino, we can get 100% crit chance. I have left my current rare dagger as a suggestion, but frankly, two Bino are very good. * Added War Banner + Inc AoE + the new More Duration support. Can grant 30% more DPS. * Added a Fulgurite Tincture for suggestion. But not sure it is viable. With only 2 mana burn stacks, we are already in negative mana regen. And I don't think it is worth investing in the new Tinctures nodes. * The main weakness of the build are all things DoT and ground degen from Pinnacle Bosses. You can search this in Configuration, with Boss Skill Preset and Enemy Damage Type. EHP is 176k, but only 10k phys max hit. Good luck and have fun :) Rahsaan's Workshop, a post to showcase a dozen of my home-made builds : https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3432443

" How is the DPS on Double Strike of Momentum compare to this? Debating between BF or DS rn. |
|
" Here is a PoB with Double Strike (regular and Momentum) : https://pobb.in/zxpmziatg13v Double Strike : 5M. If enemy bleeding : 5.9M. Momentum, 5 stages : 4M. 10 stages : 5.7M Blade Flurry : 5M Less dmg, but two advantages : AoE dmg and activate Infused Channelling : take 12% less dmg from hits while channelling. Sidenote : changed the amulet anointment to the new Incorporeal (prismatic-silver-silver). We'll have to see the rarity and price of Prismatic Oil.

First post has been updated.
- Removed outdated infos. - Infos for beginners and league starters are now at the top of the post, with these sections in order : League Start, Levelling, Progression. I hope it will make the build more accessible to new players/followers. Rahsaan's Workshop, a post to showcase a dozen of my home-made builds : https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3432443
