[2.2] 640K Flicker Strike - Assassin - 2Ex Cost Range - Fun!
Build Update - 1.1 - Latest Update: 4/9/2016 Hey everyone! Awhile back right when I was first starting out on PoE I saw a video on Youtube of flicker strike. While the build looked fun, I also noticed it was really costly. So I decided to pick something more noob friendly. So I went with a Spectral Throw build. But recently I've had the spare currency and the spare time to setup a Flicker Strike build. And I must say. This is by far one of the funnest builds I have made, it saddens me that I passed up on it for over a year. So now I am here to share my experience with you guys! In no way am I a 'pro' PoE player. I have many flaws when playing. And I don't think this is the best Flicker Strike build out there. I would just hate to make a build like this and now include you guys :) So Let's get on with it! Pros: High DPS High Sustain Insane Map Clear 75/65 Dodge Rate Easy gearing process And most of all - FUN! Cons: Not HC or Atziri Viable Lower life pool Can be disorientating Physical and Elemental reflect is suicide Not noob friendly Bandits: Normal: Oak for Life Cruel: Skill point Merciless: Kraityn for Frenzy Charge Ascendancy: Raider In order: Way of the Poacher -> Avatar of the Slaughter -> Rapid Assault Taking Trickster might actually be a more efficient choice for Flicker Strike. Walk the Aether -> Swift Killer -> Ghost Dance With the Trickster Ascendancy you'll be able to cast both Whirling Blades and Flicker Strike free of mana. No mana nodes or mana leech nodes would be needed from tree allowing you to obtain 7-11 more nodes. Also 5% more dodge chance. Will make a Guide to the Trickster variant of the build.
Leveling
I'm not the best at leveling, this crap takes me hours upon hours to level. My general advice that I did for this build got me to level 66 in roughly 6-9 Hours maybe? (Yes 6-9) I used Frost Blades with Added Fire early on and dual daggers with high phys roles. I switched over to flicker once I got melee splash and multistrike. I found the lack of Frenzy Charge generation rough, so I waited until I got blood rage and The Blood Dance boots. Upon entering cruel I updated my gear, costed roughly 5c. Bought facebreakers as quickly as I could.

But, there are a ton that help.
Uniques
The only one you really need.
 If you just want to increase your dps by a ton and don't really care about surviving, Abyssus is great for that!  For Boots another option would be Darkray Vectors, but I find the lack of charge generation and movespeed rather than damage weak in a way.  For belts there is really only one option, but I just advise getting a high life and triple resist belt instead.  For gloves a cheap pair of facebreakers is good for the Crit Multi. Don't worry about Maligaro's, The high crit multi from facebreakers will be more beneficial than more attack speed and critical chance.  For weapons there is really only one option which is Bino's. However this is not needed at all. You could pick up a cheaper high dps dagger for around 1-5c range.  For flask I highly recommend Lion's Roar. This is the perfect flask to use mid flicker strike.  The other flask that I recommend, but not as strong. Is Atziri's Promise. This gives you enough sustain at times to not have to panic flask.  If you have the spare currency and really enjoy this build. Taste of Hate is a great potion.  For chest Belly of the Beast is great to make up for the lack of health. Lightning coil is also great but hard to mantain resist without spending alot of currency.
