Is there any real need for barrage AND frenzy? Especially w/o cdr gear frenzy probably isn't neccessary. I could maybe see using frenzy with cdr boots but i hit the aps threshold waaaayyy too quickly with a quality frenzy gem

edit: I'm personally using just barrage with frenzy swapped out for culling strike in gloves on HoT

Really interesting build, i ll try it soon for sure !

I was wondering if, with an elemental prolif corruption, assassin can be played with a similar tree (maybe getting some power charges ?). Taking all but the poison branch.

We lose elem penetration and elem damages, but we can switch assassins mark for conductivity (for the penetration, we already got a passive power charge generation)and we also get some huge crit chance and multiplier. Bonus, we are "almost" reflect imune, as we are close to 100% crit chance.

This might also give us a slot instead of a diamond flask (like wise oak)

I d like to give it a try, but i want to know your opinion about this idea !

Also, just asking, can the impulsa's explosion crit ? My bet is no, but hey, we can dream.

Assassin would do well with this build. It will be extremely consistent because you will crit on every monster pack you teleport into. Although you lose elemental proliferation, you can still use Vessel of Vinktar to get a nice wide shock.

Best of all, Inpulsa CAN crit. It has a base crit chance of 0%, but with Assassin it will get +2% base crit chance.

3 Frenzy charges are an easy way to get 12% more damage. I prefer to use Barrage most of the time, because of Life Gain On Hit which allows me to facetank a lot more bosses. I can see why people don't like alternating attacks, though.

Hey, I was looking for a MF build to farm T16 elder maps and I came across this beauty of a build. I'm going to give this a try but is there a reason why you're not using goldwyrm for more IIQ? and will I be able to do T16 maps just fine with MF gear?

Yes, I've been clearing t16s just fine with the MF gear posted in the "Items" section. T16 guardians are harder to do in MF gear, but a t16 Elder map should be easy.

Goldwyrm is usable in this build. I just don't use goldwyrm because I don't like losing 20% movespeed for 20% quantity, although the majority of MFers would disagree with me.
