The Cospri's Malice Flicker build I was using is dead with 3.2, looking for ways to revive/alter it
So I was using the Flicker Strike with Cospri's Malice build, but with Noxious Strikes no longer applying bleed, the build's method of generating frenzy charges doesn't work anymore (Noxious Strike + The Red Trail + The Golden Rule).
I really like what I've played of the build so far (though it's not finished cause I only have one Cospri's and I need way more health) so I'd like to figure out how to keep it going. The way I see it, I could do one of three things: - Keep the Red Trail + Golden Rule combo and have another way to reliably apply bleed - Keep Flicker, drop Red Trail + Golden Rule and find another way to generate Frenzy charges - Drop Flicker and use another skill that works well with Cospri's I did see the Cospri CoC assassin build (which uses Cyclone instead of CoC and spins to win), but the required uniques for that build are way out of my budget (notably Pandemonious and Lycosidae) - I spent most of my chaos on one Cospri's and was working on earning enough for the second, but now that 3.2 is here I need another build for that. So what would you guys suggest? Last bumped on Apr 7, 2018, 8:23:21 PM

If you're not a Raider, you're pretty much screwed... you need to have an offhand attack to apply bleed... thankfully, that won't be hard, just use Reave+Chance to Bleed or something similar. Ezpz

So I've decided a couple things:
One, my Standard shadow is gonna use the Cospri's Discharge build, if at a budget. But that won't be for a while as I'm not really playing my standard characters at the moment (I actually have more currency on bestiary, which isn't saying much since I'm still dirt poor). Two, I'm no longer hard-set on doing Cospri's Malice, but I do want to play a CoC Flicker Shadow, probably using Terminus Est. As for the triggered spell (or spells), I haven't fully decided. Discharge would be really fun, but I'm not sure how the Terminus/Discharge interaction works - either Terminus triggers first and then the charge is discharged, or CoC triggers first and I'm left with one Frenzy charge. So now I'd like to know a couple things: How does the Terminus Est + CoC Discharge interaction work? What are some ways besides Terminus to reliably generate Frenzy charges as a Shadow? What are some fun spells to link to Flicker with CoC? |

Chance to Bleed + Multistrike on flicker is pretty reliable if you get a little bleed duration. Golden Rule + Red Trail on my mjol discharger worked fine like 80% of the time when I was messing around with it. Alternatively, you can also try a 50% Voidheart, which should have 100% uptime on bleed. Also, should be obvious, but for clearing, bloodrage/green dream work well too.
