Hey folks! A long time ago I made a flicker char, but since then it was abandoned. Curious if I can get it back in shape. Any advices(subclass/gear/skill/tree changes)?

I tried to build new tree, but...idk...feels meh

Maybe try champion: I've tweaked your tree to keep it close to your liking
Also, you don't need melee splash with Tribal Fury node so I've put close combat in your gem setup

Thanks, feels much better now :D
Although I have a feeling that my gear is "a bit" outdated. Time to figure it out.

Nice, remember to get "Standfast" node + melee hits fortify before "Rampart".
Otherwise your max fortification will be 17 and you won't benefit the +40% damage from Rampart.

Yeah. But it still feels like it's full of holes xD
Surprisingly no min-maxed flicker guides here that are up-to-date. Was it nerfed some time ago or what?

Have you gotten any further than lvl 81.

Thanks for the fun ride so far! Are you going to post a Crucible update for this build?

Can anyone help me on how I can improve this build? the damage still doesn't match the damage of the Oro build that is posted, it's close, but according to the PoB it's a little lower and I don't know why.

mostly the missing ancestral warchief buff

gem lvls and jewels

example for upgrades (picked the first slayer)

Build still works well enough for 3.21. Lvl 50 now without issue.
Some dmg% nodes have changed around Mark Mastery but I still took them for the 10% Frenzy gain.

After lvl 38 I focused more on getting the damage nodes, around attack mastery and I got Precise Technique.

For Attack Mastery itself I took "NON-Vaal strike skills target addition enemy" and "5% increased attacked speed per enemy in close range".

If I switch to Vaal Flicker I might swap NON-vaal to "+3 to Melee strike range".

I have not taken Leech Mastery yet as I do not have issues with life leeching with Lifetap.

*Edit; Replaced Lakishu with a rare drop. Went from 950dps to 1850dps...

Maybe I'll update post in the future.

Anyone try this in 3.22?
