[2.2 Video Guide] Tanky, High DPS, Crit Blade Vortex Build [HC/SC & Atziri Viable]

If you have the 90% duration from the tree, you really don't need Increased Duration in your 6-link.

Get Critical Strikes instead, OpieOP
What should I be looking for in jewels for this?

Ok, after testing a few things i have figured a few things out.

First off, the dmg boost from flask sucks, im 15k town dps and i gain 700 dps while using flask, so i went Assasin, and its almost the sam dps but always up, the really nice thing is the power charges in maps, i had a hard time getting power charges up on non bosses with PCOC, i still use it but the assasin stuff makes them up 100% of the time in map.

Second. i have taken the durration nodes south, while getting there i picked up 28% all resist and a Jewel node, then i ditch Duration Gem and use Increased AOE, and Concentraded Effect, that gives alot more dmg then other setups.

Next i use only 1 Divinarius, too make up for the lost aoe i use the aoe just left of scion start, in other hand i use The Consuming Dark, sheet dps wise i loose 400 dps, but kill speed is nuts, you gain Poison on hit, i gain poison from 430 Chaos dmg, but they stack, so 20-30 blades a sec makes bosses melt so fast its insane.

i will experiment some more, and get back with what i find.

Kind regards Sinn


Same here I did respec to Berserker + Assasin, seems to be working better. I do also use 2x cure - warlord+assasin (
). Will try out with Consuming dark see how it goes, thx for your input. Overall most fun I had in a while with a build :)
Maybe i'm kind of dum, but where does Life Leech come from? We don't use a Life Leech gem, why Vaal Pack!? HELP A NOOB OUT! xD

Out of curiousity, what did you remove from the passive tree to get those nodes?

Between assassin and assassins mark, power charges are pretty easy to keep up. Im using the curse ring, I felt that the boots were a bit too much to give up

ive also invested in some leech items.

My amulet has 1.3% phys
Silver flask has .4
Shadows and dust for the .4% mana leech and crit

that plus warlords mark and berserker and i gain life instantly when hitting
I just cannot seem to find that duration cluster ahah, south of scion where?
I can agree with someone that had complained about getting 1 shotted with this build. Before LCOIL youre totally _alone_ with your flasks.

Definitely not a starter HC build.
