]|[ Proposition X: An Acrobatic Lightning Damage Spectral/Flicker Build ]|[

Auras:

Wrath + Grace + Reduced Mana

Primary skill combinations

Spectral Throw + Power Charge On Crit+ Increased Critical Chance + LMP + Added Lightning Damage [Damage & Farming]

Summon Skeleton + Totem + Faster Casting [Minion wall for safer farming]

Flickerstrike + Increased Critical Chance + Multistrike + Added Lightning Damage [Fun Times]


Itemization:
Of course, Terminus Est for Frenzy charge buildup.

Another, superior 2H sword for efficient Spectral Throw farming.

Will probably need an Astramentalis to make up the stat requirements during leveling, then flip over to an Eye of Chayula if you actually want to use Flickerstrike on things that could stun you (everything in high level maps).


Passive Skills & Explanations:

Keeping a small amount of energy shield allows you to reduce stun % by 50% as long as it's not empty. Add that to the 30% reduced stun from Heart of Oak in the Ranger starting area, and it becomes significant.

Mind Over Matter is a flat 30% damage rerouted to your mana pool, and all the evasion and Acrobatics is designed to let you run away like a little girl while your hybrid flasks bring your health and mana pool back up once you do get chunked.

Obviously, pretty gear-dependent for life leech, more HP, resistances, although this build does achieve 4+% life regen, and has fairly good managen.

You'll be speccing in-and-out of the resist nodes attached to +6% all res nodes as you find better gear.

Late game, you may want to ditch 1.2% lifegen for a bigger mana pool, and perhaps the +10/+10 stat nodes.

I avoid adding Melee Splash to Flickerstrike, as experience has shown me that reflect mobs absolutely bend you over if you don't have at least one non-AOE skill.

Your thoughts? Needs more life nodes?
