Well I can tell you with this style of flicker you gotta run a frenzy attack set up, you wont always be able to maintain charges with allot of bosses unless you have the extra attack frenzy to get some plus it does a ton of damage, around 70-75k per hit for like 5-6 hits per second. Also thanks to Talisman league you can cheat on bosses by dropping deadhand talisman, everytime you hit them a worm pops out which almost instantly dies and does no damage to you giving you charges. You gotta have defense to do high level maps or youll get stunned one shot or bum rushed. You know you can hold down Flicker and spamm frenzy attack between without ever slowing down if you have the boss targetted correctly. I levele with frenzy which requires allot more work and never died until I tried to kill malakai in merciless. Still killed him but rip twice from traps.

Of course, I have frenzy skill, you can watch my video guide and check my survivability.

Most deaths are from Reflect and Volatile not from hits, but with such DPS reflect will beat me even with 5k HP on 80+ maps

pointless build, how do u kill proper bosses? ure not even generating frenzy charges except from blood rage, you may have fun with this build but dont expect it to get past t10 maps, and thats if youre lucky. You have GOT to kill mobs in 1 hit for this spec to work now.

try using the ice bite gem (think thats what it was called) and the unique boots that give a chance of charge on kill to, poachers mark instead of assassins mark also, even then youre still not going to kill bosses with this build, flicker is dead sadly unless u go the way of oro's

I will agree he needs blood dancer boots and blasp-pouchers mark to get enough frenzy charges, but you are way wrong about killing bosses thanks to talisman its easy to drop deadhand and have them pop a worm out everytime we hit them giving us charges. I destroy bosses all the way into tier 12 maps. Not all the bosses are beasts, Heck tier 7 torture chamber is one of the worst. Flicker is alive, I can basicly spam flicker on boss with frenzy between easy no pause in the action when timed correctly never have an issue killing everything including malakai when I was only level 60 in merciless using mostly flicker.

For killing trash blood rage is enough, you can see it in video guide.

Question is bosses, my DPS enough to kill T10-T11 bosses.

But point is the price of the build, it cost only 1Ex for all gear, if u wana fight T14-T15 bosses get better gear and get up to 2 Mil DPS.

Impressive damage! Wasnt able to reach 500k even with my main char in Talisman (not that that would exactly be needed..) but some parts seem odd about this build:

-You go for acrobatics but not phase acrobatics. Wouldnt that be a help against the ele dmg from novae and ice/fire rain and all the other ele stuff that easily hits WHILE flickerling?
-How did you level this build? I am not adept at critical builds but to me it seems like you couldnt play this with flickerstrike from lvl 33 (multi) on.
-Anything against physical spells or accurate hitters? Physical or elemental reflect? Penetration for the lot of elemental dmg you are dealing?

I mean, the damage numbers by themself are impressing, not to mention the buget of 1 exalt for a crit build but I never tried a crit build and this seems so... one wayed? Ofc you could raise the dmg to incredible amounts with some currency but would the defensive part (some stuff will always hit you.. novae, rains, clouds, meleehits from bosses etc etc) even get good at some point with more money?

Would be quite interesting though. It intrigues me to wear a shield while killing stuff fast :3

As for phase acrobatics, I've played different ways and think that for more than 90% of game content u need only capped resistances. Yes, bosses like Megaera on Crematorium map will kill you often. But the point is u not need deathless every run to reach 85-90 level. But this build not for getting 100, it's for fastfarming.

About leveling I wana make the other guide but can say some words.
Best skills to level as melee character is cleave, ground slam / leap slam.
You need to focus on phys damage at first not on crit.

Undying Evangelists beat a lot but only with large damage mods on map.
Reflect is the most problem of high DPS but vaal pact and life leech gem will help a lot.
No sence to penetrate the damage I have a lot of damage types and can't focus on one of them.

and thnx for comment:P

Short and clear.
I agree, with this dps you not need anything but blood rage.
Hp is low I better choose the 182% life tree.
Good luck man with the next guide!
