[3.7] Bashtart's Frost Blades Trickster * Oni-Goroshi * Insane Speed & Millions DPS with BF!

I've been eyeing this build build for the upcoming flashback race since I wanted to try out a Frost Blades build. What're your guys' thoughts on this build as a league starter versus, say, a typical Frost Blades Raider?

You can play this as a typical frost blades league starter and get the Oni later. With Oni obviously the leveling is a joke, more or less you will just oneshot nearly all thrash except some high life like beasts etc. Unfortunately the oni drop chance is kinda unpredictable... I started with this build as a league starter and got my oni after 6 hours farming (other players needed much longer...) after that I just rushed to mapping... the clearspeed is pretty insane so you also can gear really fast and get to endgame soon when you know what you are doing. I think the biggest advantage is that this build is really viable for all content...

Hi there, I saw your guide has 2 skilltree (Molten strike & Blade flurry). Which do I use or what are the differences between them, thanks a lot.

Hi, well we use two skills... frost blades for clearing and molten strike/blade flurry for single targets. Both MS and BF are very good for bosses... I would recommend MS because I think it is just a bit easier to use and with this setup you can more or less facetank nearly all bosses until you reach the endgame.

Hi Bashtart,


I love your build, always loved Frostblade but never knew MS could be this powerful.

I was wondering what would be the next step, except buying Dying Sun

Gor Uber Atziri, Shaper and Red Elder down, could not clear Vaal Temple got obliterated.

Cheers

Well I guess you have bit of room for improvement:
1) Oni-Goroshi with higher base crit
2) Ring with life on hit / curse on hit
3) better Rare items
4) better boots enchantment
5) additional ms projectiles entchantment

cheers bash

I tried this build and I regretted not invest in this earlier. Thanks for this build, as a fairly new player, I must say that is the best character I tried so far.

I am still figuring out how to use POE. May I check if anyone can advise any improvement I can make?
Also I notice my skill points might be lesser than it seems, can anyone advise. Thank you so much for helping me.

Hi, saw your guide for blade flurry setup with 2 oni-goroshi sword. It is a 2 hand weapon so how do you equip 2 at the same time?

You use a second one in your offhand and just switch between them as needed.

For skillpoints, take a look at this post https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1933279/page/1 and check your ingames quest to see if you've done all side quests giving skillpoint :).

It's been a while i haven't played much on my char using this build (grinding elder for the last 2 memory fragments exhausted me since i'm unlucky and he never gets on T14+), i'd say like bashtart, better rares. And you also have gems without quality, that will boost you. Try also to get FrostBlade & MoltenStrike 21/20q if you can pay them.
