why oro's flicker builds always have beacon of ruin in ascendancy? I mean with melee splash attacks and conflux from shaper of desolation node we always got max frenzy charges w\o any prolification effect...

I cant speak for other Oro builds, but for Emberstrike, ignites increase the damage dealt with two rings, and beacon of ruin spreads the ingites very quickly.

so, you too cant see any other beneficts from beacon of ruin? I wonder why everybody using it.

Hi Dream just going to start with this build looks great :D
Just wondering, untill I can use Oro's , could I just level using BV as the main skill?
If so , what levelling uniques would you recommend? thanks!

yea absolutely, throw on a bunch of caster gear, maybe spend a few extra points to on a few spell dmg nodes for leveling and have at it!

Blade vortex is such a powerful skill that you probably wont really need any specific uniques, however amplification rod might be a cheap 5L.

Thanks I'm levelling very quick towards Oro's :D
Didn't see any examples of your flasks, are there any flasks combination you recommend?

hey if u use this patern u save up one skill points that u can put in vitality void for much more survivabilitty idk what u think https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAABAMCAADuA-4EswthDF8NjREtEzUUIBUgF6QYXRo4HKcc3B2-I9MnLypNLOkwcTB8MfsyiTLRM4c1kjfUOkI62DrhPC0_J0GHRUdFnUZSSshLeE3jTipQR1FHU1JTpVW1VkhW-lltW69fP1-YZlRnm2jya3puqm8nbzt35XgNe8N8g38rgpuCx4Nfg8yFe4aziq-Mz42_jr6PGo9gkBGQVZLBmmqa4JtYns2fy6IAplenCKcwrfGuPq9stfK3PsAawGbBBMauyL_PMtQj2CTYvd0N3ajfsOFz5FHr7uw47SDtP-4O7w7wH_JF9kj56PxM_MX-Cv6P

@Green - you are right - actually theres an even better way here:

saves even 1 more point.

ohh ever better and sorry for the question im new but can u explain me the pertinence of the artic breath and extra bv set up in boots and gloves and why would it not be better to change it for a fire golem to increase fire damage even more or other utility mod

utility. Arctic breath creates chilled ground and slows enemies. The extra blade vortex is just another means of adding additional ignites. I do not recommend losing the second blade vortex since it stacks with the self cast one.

You can grab herbalism instead of some other life nodes now

"Blade Vortex has been refactored. Instead of separate hits for each active blade, the blades now increase the frequency at which all enemies in the radius take damage, and the amount of damage they take. The skill now has a base hit frequency of 600ms and has 10% increased hit rate per active blade. Its damage has been reduced by 30% at all levels and it deals 30% more damage per active blade."

will this be very bad for the build or good? cause its one of the skillgems, i tried saving up for this build for 2.5.

also curious, how did u level up, the first item comes at lvl 16, and the first gem at lvl 4/8/10/12 (flickerstrike at 10)

so what did u use for leveling, just autohitting?
