[3.9] Frostblades Assassin SSF Viable. 1M+ DPS w/ Budget gear! League starter! Insane Clear Speed

Same question as DeadBabyDave already asked. Your current character uses two perks (Wisdom of the Glade and Beef) to gain enough INT and STR, should I make the same thing or version from Path of Building still better?

P.S. Anyway, there's a big difference between your in-game character and character from Path of Building. Maybe you should change PoB build a bit to make them look the same.

This Build guide is a total mess, inaccurate and not adequately updated for 3.7. But it is understandable because there are alot of changes to the tree and meta, but it doesn't help that the guide says it is updated when it clearly isn't.

I love the general idea of this build and wish that i knew enough to update it myself but FB is not meta right now and probably will never be. My advice is go play Cyclone like the builder of this guide....

Hello there! Nice build you have! Playing it on PS4 makes it even more mobile with Wir. Blades. This one character of mine is SSF, following your guide and everything works just fine :) Thank you.

One question... I got these gloves are they any good for this build?

Still playing this build. Started it as league starter and am now farming t16's no prob. 5.8k life. This build is fast af with some investment. I recently started using an inspired learning for the extra fun. It's good stuff.

any gear recomendations???

This was my first time playing Frost Blades and I had a blast, thanks for the build! Managed to kill shaper after a couple tries with only about 4 exalted investment. Not sure what other people are using for body armor, but I was fine with just a 5L Daresso's Defiance. Main problems with build were dying instantly to ele reflect and overall lack of survivability. Takes some attention and skill to kill some bosses. To the people saying just play cyclone, this build clears maps faster than cyclone with relatively little risk.

What boots do you recommend? I just picked up a Voidwalker boots and it seems to increase map clear speed by quite a bit. The projectile pierce works wonders.

What do you think about going into iron reflexes? It's a 3 point investment, or is the amount of evas you get from dex too large to throw away?

??? You must be smoking dick. The build guide has been updated numerous times. Some sections of the guide are outdated, but the path of building, leveling trees and all that shit are all updated.

Don't just spout random bullshit that you have no idea what you are saying.
Also the only reason I am playing cyclone as my league starter is FB gets a bit boring after you play it for 5 leagues in a row...

Loving this build, I went with Queen of the Forest and Soul of Lunaris for more survivability. I out clear my friends cyclone build and have very little issues with bosses.

MeltedCoolSnow isn't that far off. There ARE a number of inconsistencies that make this write-up confusing. For example, the POB link shows Berserk, Frostbite, Rage, Steelskin, and Vaal Double strike as skills being used. Those are NOT listed in the "Skillgem Order" section. This makes the build significantly different.

The top of that same section does say it's "Outdated," but does that apply to everything, or just what else is written in white. Why keep it? Just delete it.

Better yet, replace it with what you're currently doing so that those reading your guide can benefit from your expertise, as intended.
