[2.3] Bladefall/Blade Vortex - Immortal Boss killer Berserker
Build idea:
Spoiler
We run and kill anything in the game and our main goal is not to get one hit. And if we achieve that we can survive all the game has against us. Pros:
Spoiler
- reflect is not a problem - can be cheap - easy to level - high lifepool - 7.6k currently - high clearspeed - several defence mechanics - safe boss killing - 100% uptime on vaal haste Cons:
Spoiler
- works best with legacy items - needs to take damage to trigger its main defence mechanic - doesnt look impactful like some CoC builds - weaker against DOT Passive Tree:
Spoiler
Ascendancy
Spoiler
We are always Berserker. This is the most important keystone of this build. Cloaked in Savagery allows us to ignore the damage monsters deal to us and i dont even use any life flask. Even one tiny little hit with 1 stack of blade vortex instantly gives us ull life. thats cool Tree Gems

Flasks
Spoiler
I have currently 7.6k hp and using life flasks seems to me to be just not worth it. We can use more utility flasks instead. Last bumped on Aug 2, 2016, 5:44:04 PM

" Actually im running a similar Assassin with BF and BV with a 5L POH (Working on 6L to finish) and a 6L chest and having both at my disposal is extremely handy for certain situations where i dont want to get in close and its also a super boss nuke when you stack up 50 BV and then start using BF with the BV things just melt almost instantly. This build however is alot different from that but runnings POH with BV builds has huge advantages because of its many options. Ive also run COD again with POH on my build for a while and took advantage of MOM while i was still lvling the build to the 90s and it was super strong that way but began to fall off on things like Uber Izaro at which point i had to end up dropping the COD and going VP which solved those issues. But it still works well none the less. There is a fine line between Consideration and Hesitation.
The former is Wisdom, the latter is Fear. | |
Btw, in the guide is no explanation of dealing with the bandits do i kill them at cruel takeing the cast speed or the dmg?
| |
Bandits are:
oak for life alira for cast speed and kill them all for skill point I use bladefall over blade vortex for mapping because it is just faster - more aoe and you dont need to be melee. i also like that playstyle better but against single target blade vortex is hands down best dps in the game so i dont mind swapping one gem. thats why i designed skill tree and the gem link to feel free swapping those gems. |
