Lv96 Poutsos' Flicker Nuke - Outdated

Guys,i am glad that u are liking the build so far and you are doing well with it :).Since i dont play very much and i have terrible luck it seems unlikely that i will upgrade my gear further anytime soon,so i d love if somebody can see the build to it's full potential,with 6L and op gear!
Also interesting points by everyone.Sblack,i 100% agree with your points on daggers.

When you are doing these changes, the extra crit chance is less which surprises me. What is your current crit multiplier? Do you use any curses? I would wager that fire is a great choice but that pcoc could be better if you had 6 max charges, or a lower base crit chance. Going from say 30% crit chance to 60% with 6 charges would outpace added fire, right? I am making this build and trying to see what way I should go.

6power charges would definetely outperform added fire damage,but with this build it is impossible to have 6.You can have 4 easily( i had 4 before i abandoned them,i intend to get a 4rth power charge again when i have a 20/20 power charge on crit),but the 5th is very far away with useless passives,and obviously,since this build needs frenzy charges,u cant get a power charge from a quest reward.Generally good thing with PCoC is that u dont have to use it with flicker strike.At least with my playstyle,i use all my 3 attacks alot(LS,frenzy,Flicker),so i can have PPoC on LS like i did before.Even though i though it wasnt worth it before,now with my higher crit chance and a 20.20 PCoC gem(when i get one)i wanna try it again!

I met a guy on anarchy in a sale who plays this build with a 6 link and 300 dps pure phys dagger, said he hits 140k dps. Holy balls.

that's insane.. I hope it was w/o splash.

Thats incredible :)

Uhm, thats alot of damage. Must be missing something.

I use this:
288 phys dps, 9.38 crit chance. I have flicker strike 6Linked with multistrike, melee phys, power charge on crit, crit damage, and additional accuracy. With 4 each frenzy and power charges, I have around 87-88k dps.

I'm level 81, alot of nodes towards damage and crit. Where is all the 110-140k dps comin from?

Mine would be over 100k I guess with added fire, but my chance to hit would drop about 5% prolly.

Edit: Also I use these for more damage

Wow great staff.The dps will increase dramatically if u add increase melee damage on full life.If u are CI u should do that!Still88K with splash is insane.My DPS is 111K single target and 70K with melee splash,with 5 frenzy charges(no power charges).Post your skill tree plz if u want.Also more frenzy charges will make a big difference,since flicker gains 15% increased atack speed with each charge.SICKKK dagger!

Update:I leveled up and since now i have a faster dagger with higher crit chance and a 20% quality power charge on crit i decided to give Power charge on crit another try,so i took an extra power charge.The results are incredible.Since i use lightning strike alot,as u can see on my videos,with high attack speed and high crit chance i manage to gain and maintaing power charges VERY easily.I ll upload new videos when i get higher level maps to run :D.I really feel that this build with great gear and a 6L can provide 6K +ES and 200K DPS single target or more,well over 100K DPS with melee splash :D.I really hope that someone with great gear will test it someday

Would you mind breaking down the info on your flicker dps? Id like to know your crit chance, crit multi, damage per hit, and attacks per sec. Also how many of each charge you have up when you do that. Hatred is the only damage aura you use right?

I don't have great gear yet but I plan to test this build and see if it can hit 200k dps. I am pretty sure this is the highest single target dps build in the game because of the nature of Flicker strike: 125% base damage 80% base crit and 15% bonus attack speed per Frenzy charge.

I am not quite there yet but it is very possible at around level 85 to have around 85% crit chance with flicker, 12 attacks per second, and 700% crit multiplier. With good accuracy.

Just using a 5L now but I intend to use a 6L with MofL, Melee Phys, Multi, Added Fire, Crit Damage, and Flicker.

I have 6 Frenzy charges constantly and pick up my 5 power charges from a second attack. For the bandits I chose pcoc instead of a frenzy because 50% crit is better than 15% attack speed, because of the diminishing returns on speed.
