[3.0] How to Flicker. Two Handed Weapon Edition!
" I use Frenzy for single target DPS and theres no other gem that increases your DPS as much as multistrike, even giving only 1 frenzy per cast it still worthy it imo. I use Frenzy + multi + faster attacks + physical dmg. |

Yup multistrike can be good, it depends on what are you using it for.

I rather like using a stick and move approach to bosses. Flicker until you can't any more, then get 2-3 frenzy attacks in (depending on boss / danger), then flicker again to help avoid damage. If there are adds that spawn you'll hardly ever need to stop flickering.

" KorgothBG: I love this! My main is a TS ranger (derp), and I've been looking to branch into a melee character. I've always liked the idea of Flicker Strike but I could never find a build that I liked--until I discovered yours! I just have one question (so far): 1. How do you recommend leveling pre-44? I remember in 1.3 leveling my totem marauder pre-totems was... well, it was hell. I'm hoping you (or someone else!) can offer advice on efficient leveling skills to use before Flicker Strike is viable. (I'm sorry if this is addressed somewhere significantly earlier in the thread; I have only read the initial posts and those since 2.0 was released.) Thanks! |

I re-rolled a flicker duelist on Warbands, and this build is hella fun! Thanks for the great guide!
I would like to add that the new Bronn's Lithe is a great chest piece to use for this build. It has high evasion, move and attack speed, and the ~40% increase to damage for movement skills that they added to it is great for flicker strike. If you can off-color enough of the sockets to red you can also use it for your flicker strike set up to get +2 levels to your flicker strike gem. It's also a very cheap unique, got mine for 5 chaos |

Well i personally think that leveling from 1-44 is extremely easy and fast with ... pretty much everything ... use ground slam/ice crash/cleave/sweep whatever you like the most. It really takes around 4 hours to get to 44. @LoklanZFG Bronn's lite has some good qualities but it is far from the other options in my opinion. Btw +2 levels of flicker strike = 3.2% base damage "I'm going to show you pain you never knew existed, you're going to see a whole new spectrum of pain!!!!! Like a RAINBOW!"

" Thanks! I know it should be quick; I'm just really inexperienced with leveling as a melee... the only experience has been my totem mara, which as I said was not fun. |
|
Well in my opinion melee is probably the fastest way to level up just get some dirt cheap uniques and you are good to go

" Its a good chest to use while lvling but nowhere near as good as the other options for late game (Daresso/Belly/Lightning Coil). No life, no resists, no defense mechanism and the offensive stats aren't that great to compensate (if it was MORE damage it would be great, but just INCREASED damage doesnt give much) the +2 lvl to gem is only 3,2% base dmg (from 160,4 to 163,6), nothing impressive. For lvling until you can get the needed gems i find double strike/cleave very effective, usually one/two hit everything if you have the right lvling uniques.
