[3.25] Charged Dash Charge stacking

I didn't think I would ever post this, been trying to make it work for a couple years

I took inspiration from the Shockwave Sanctum runner by lytylisius
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTcaSLLJijk

I took the Power and Frenzy charge stacking from the build but wanted at least some tankiness

In comes Slayer with Masterful Form. With reaching 11 charges that's 44% Physical and Elemental reduced damage

This is not a starter build, pretty sure it only works because of


Concept
Spoiler
The problem I always had with Charged Dash was the mirage moving so slow.
With reaching 190% MS and the mirage moves at 150% of your movement speed this problem is gone.
With the MS it is a bit hard to steer, which is why I recommend using a controller for this build. I do primarily play with a controller already due to pain in my wrist so this worked out well for me

1. Weapon
Spoiler

With this being a melee attack build I couldn't use


After trying various uniques and rares I ended on

I tried a couple different versions of Paradoxica and I believe this is the best fit for this build. You do need a bit of Int and the blind helps with your evasion scaling


2. Armour
Spoiler
As I said I took the charged stacking tech from a sanctum runner

Nothing really new or different there
Because of the spell damage on Malachi's Loop I added

The +1 power charge was important

Gloves filled in some Resistances as well as Lightning Exposure and HoP effect


3. Rings
Spoiler

This is the ring that inspired me to try this build again. Every stat is useful. +1 power charge = +3 total charges.
Coupled with

and that's +6 total charges


4. Flasks
Spoiler
I get a good portion of my defense from flasks

The chance to avoid being shocked is important. With 50%+ and

you are elemental ailment immune.

I tried quite a few Unique flasks and all versions of Vintar's and I believe this is BIS. The flat damage is important due to Paradoxica's double damage. The leech and enemies being shocked is great. The downside of being shocked is mitigated through ailment immunity


5. Gem Links
Spoiler
Main Link
Spoiler

Because of the 11 power/frezny/endurance charges PowerChargeOnCrit,IceBite, and EnduranceChargeOnStun are huge damage
Awakened Lightning Damage is a big jump in damage(got lucky with lvl 6 corruption)
Awakened Elemental Damage is a great QOL being elemental reflect immune

Auras
Spoiler

Grace is the main defense aura coupled with blind on hit, I'm currenty at 80% chance to evade

Herald of Purity is massive damage increase with

and increased buff affect on my gloves

Wrath coupled with

gives good ES leech since this is a hybrid build

Enlighten is needed to fit all in, lvl 4 would give a bigger mana pool but not needed


Precision linked with Arrogance, pretty standard setup. The Can't be blind on the watcher's eye was bonus, not needed

Other
Spoiler

PhysToLIt is important so its full ele conversion for full reflect immune

Withering Step and Steelskin on automation, best options I could think of, might be better choices

With Endurance charge on Stun and on kill I get pretty good duration Immortal Call
Assassin's Mark to Crit cap on bosses and rares
Portal because I hate scrolls and you can't bind a button on controller


6. Jewels
Spoiler

Cluster
Spoiler

Rage and Corpse Explosion

Expansive Might works while you're channeling and after you release, you are considered stationary while you teleport
Vast Power is a big AoE increase due to power charge stacking

Unique Jewels
Spoiler


To the right of Ranger gives a huge amount of damage as well as the last 10% phys to lit conversion

To the right of Assassin has a lot of great stats

For ES leech for Hybrid Build

For Elemental Immunity

This is to free up ascendency points to get the 5 nodes I was wanting


7. Ascendency
Spoiler
Masterful Form
Gives 11 endurance charges
Brutal Fervour
Leech effects not removed and Reduced Damage taken
Endless Hunger
Attack Speed While Leeching, Cannot be Stunned and Unaffected by Leech
Overwhelm
Use this before you get Forbidden Flesh and Flame
Impact After Forbidden Flesh and Flame
You could get Impact, Overwhelm, Masterful Form or Endless Hunger through Flesh and Flame, which ever is cheapest


I did not level as Charged Dash, I respced an existing character at 90 and changed his name
