Im liking this build, it has been fun leveling with FlickerStrike, only problem I have is with bosses, seems flicker is weak on bosses so i have been using doublestrike to do bosses.... how do you others kill bosses ?
theres multiple ways. one is to use frenzy and just melee them down as u generate frenzies. u can also alternate frenzy/flicker. ideal is if u have enough flivker dps that u kill them instantly

This is the first time I'm playing flicker strike (then again I only started PoE in legion) and damn it's so much fun.
I am just sat there with a smile when I press the right mouse button.
The only gripe I have is the fact that bosses are a pain in the ass. Even with frenzy, I think that versus my necromancer finishing at act 10 I have 80 deaths more than that character.
Is that purely because of the resistances or other reasons too?
necro minions is a very safe build. thats why hc players use it. flicker is the absolute opposite. u played the tankiest and then the most fragile build lol
it takes skill imho to play flicker and be able to avoid damage. u can predict where you will flicker next, and also know when to stop flickering to avoid damage.
of course, u need good defensive gear and gem setups too
there are ways to beat bosses efficiently. most importantly, u need dps. see some tips in my comment above

Hi, I have a question. How do you maintain constant bleeding? Talent in the tree gives only 10% and ordinary mobs die too fast for you to get hit (not rare).
Hmm, for me it's working just fine... I can hear when I bleed, and I bleed all the time. 10% is quite a lot when you consider how much you're hitting per second.. At least, I don't struggle with charges.
Only problems I'm having is Flicker stopping sometimes on single targets, but that's not because of frenzy charges, dunno what it is. Also sometiems when I leap slam, I get stuck..

flicker stopping can be a performance thing. it helps if u click multiple times instead of holding the button.

Now that you mention it, it works better when I click rather than hold. I'll be damned, thanks!

Hi guys, sorry for asking because it was prob asked a milion times.. If there was a proper search function i wouldve searched it in the topic.
I am respeccing from my cyclone build to this build, so it's a work in progress, saw a vid and really liked flicked after testing it a bit lol.
Now im trying to get this work, but i have this issue with bosses, because it keeps resetting the cooldown. Can someone help me out a bit to make it work better vs bosses? I'm melting other shit now tho, but dying on bosses is kinda lame

theres a lot to improve on but focus on these 3 things:
1. get a 6link. any 6 link, even if the mods are garbage, its still much better than a 5 link. 6th link is probably ruthless.
2. get the 3rd lab done and get the crit ascendancy.
3. fix your flasks. get a diamond flask, unfreeze flask, uncurse flask. use only 1 life flask, which should be an instant flask. get 1 or 2 unique damage flasks, like atziris promise or lions roar. quality all flasks

Thanks you for responding, i'm working on the 3rd lab asap, i'm a bit scared to do it now since i can almost never kill any bosses without dying now lmao.
Got a 6L ready, just need to fix the colors on the links, so that's coming and will improve my flasks.
I might sound a bit dumb, but i don't understand how these changes will fix the issues i have that my flicker strike keeps resetting it's cooldown on bosses
edit;
another question i have, when checking builds or other people, they have like 4/5 auras in their set up, for me this will lend up without any mana left to cast Flicker Strike.

Just a small question, I've just finished leveling and can jump straight in to tier 9-10 map and melt everything down (perhaps red maps as well but I dont want to risk my exp). But I havent done uber lab because it seem to me Flicker Strike aint gonna do well in Izaro. So which skill do you guys recommend to use instead of flicker for lab?
