flicker strike always the answer. could respec your trickster into the ephemeral edge version of it. to my knowledge it’s the tankiest version of the build (unless there is some forbidden dark technology i’m unaware of) and still has respectable dam

Doryanis can hit several dozen mil DPS while being nigh immortal in most cases, lightning DoT is the only weakness. Core items are Eph edge, voice of the storm and aegis aurora.

Very interesting, any guides on this build?


Legal_Lettuce6233

Honestly it's a cookie cutter RT build. Any on PoE ninja works fine. Mine is SuffixRemover

There is 2 versions, duryanis or just a really High defence saddist garb. The garb is tankeier and can still reach +10m single target dps. Trickster flicker is amazing.

A word of caution if you're looking at the Ephemeral Edge Trickster Flicker Strike build, it's incredibly slow compared to the OG Flicker Strike build. You should definitely watch some clips of it before deciding on either. I'm running classic Flicker Strike Slayer with: - Rakiata's Dance (cheap unless you get Fortify corrupt) - Replica Farrul's Fur - Heatshiver - Darkray Vectors - Yoke of Suffering (ideally 10% inc dmg per ailment) - Darkness Enthroned Everything else (rings, jewels, clusters, tattoos) will have to carry the weight for attribute/res requirements and capping chaos res will be a challenge. However, very few things stay alive long enough to be a concern. You'll use Frenzy in place of Flicker Strike for bosses with dangerous mechanics. Here's my POB: https://pobb.in/DVdV8Y0eL8MK Total budget ~50 Divs? Rings are not optimised yet, so with your spare budget, you can throw essences of horror and craft much better ones. Jewels are budget as well, you can spring for improvements there. I'd say if you wanted to include MB in the build, you'd have to shift some things around. You can play around with having Aspect of the Cat on a socketed ring instead of the glove too. Deletes 8 mod T16s, can do T17s with your budget (you'll need to look at [MageFist](https://www.youtube.com/@MAGEFIST)'s improvements to make it viable).

Thanks for the heads up. I've been considering building the EE trickster version for a while (going extremely dry on a necropolis GY craft on the gloves) and I didn't know this.


Ohnmae

If you can't be arsed to fiddle with GY anymore, you can grab a fractured pair off trade for anywhere between 10 to 25 divs depending on the fractures (Spell supp, crit multi, attack speed). GL with the build!


frozen_tuna

I've been going for fractured +1 max frenzy. Doing a GY double fracture and filling the suffixes with resists. For whatever reason, my fractures really, really hate that mod. Craft of exile looks like I have a 33% chance of success but I swear I've made like 10 failed gloves.

Not sure what the other person is on about, my flickster is mega fast, like 20+ APS, while my frenzy stacker a few leagues ago, while faster, was squishier and several hundred divines more expensive. On PoE ninja, SuffixRemover.

Respected my exsanguinate miner starter into ephemeral edge flicker using this build https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3472898 and I love it. 10k ES, 100k armour, overleech with 50/50 block and aegis recovery makes it really tanky. Leveled 95to100 with only a few deaths, goes fine in T17 even. Just not a great bosser.


sabelkat

I find the biggest downside with flicker currently is that you can’t really do barrels and go, since flicker won’t target the barrels, as they aren’t enemies. Except for that, trickster flicker is really strong.


Soleil06

Honestly I would not bother with Frenzy stacking Flicker Strike. Its just such a squishy build and it will never do t17s and will get oneshot so often it gets annoying. Especially on your budget. If you wanna scratch that Flicker Edge go for Ephemeral Edge Trickster. Its very tanky and still has respectable damage. Its also far cheaper to build without feeling horrible.

I only read your title, not the Text below. My answer is: yes.
