Cyclone is also an excellent Flicker Strike replacement in reflect physical damage" maps. I simply replace the Flicker Strike gem (green) with the Cyclone gem (green) and the melee splash gem (red) by the added fire damage gem (red). But since Flicker Strike is unusable without Blood rage, I use Cyclone instead. My solution : I don't use Blood Rage in those maps. In "Vulnerability", "Reduced maximum resist" or "Reduce life/mana/es regen by 50%" maps, you actually take chaos damage every second if you use both Death's Oath and Blood rage. When to use Cyclone instead of Flicker Strike ? The 11% life leech provided by the chest (5%) and blood rage (6%) is almost exclusively used to leech back any dmg done by monsters. That means +22,6 life regen per second despite blood rage and Death's Oath. With chaos resist of 64%, Blood Rage deals 64 chaos dmg per second and Death's Oath 162 chaos per second. Single target skill is frenzy and could potentially reach 30k+ with a 5L.Īt level 84 with his current gear, the character has 4700 life and 250+ life regen per second (Patch 1.0.5 numbers). Finally, the Death's Oath flickerer has a nice amount of evasion thanks to the optional Grace aura, some evasion gear, a decent amount of dex from passive and gear and some evasion passives (+56%).Īt level 84 with a 400 dps staff (with 6.68% local crit) and average gear, Flicker Strike supported with critical dmg, critical chance, melee physical dmg and melee splash dmg deal around 18k dps (with 4 frenzy charges). The character also use Molten Shell and Enduring cry for the extra physical dmg reduction. The character can easily break the 10k armor barrier (I have 14k) and, as a result, has very high physical dmg reduction. 35% with a 18% block staves.įinally, to fully benefit from the high armor of the Death's Oath chestplate, the build pick up many armor passives and run the determination aura. 29% chance to block is possible at level 86. With a 12% block staff, the character can reach 27% chance to block at level 85. In addition, they have high natural critical chance so they benefit more than any other 2h weapons from the flicker strikes quality bonus.īeing a staff user and a melee character, the Death's Oath flickerer pick up many staff passives that grant block%. Staves, being 2h weapons, have very high dmg output, enough to one shot white monsters. To fully benefit from those two elements, the character use a Staff. Also, Flicker Strikes with 20% quality provides +80% increased critical chance. To get frenzy charges from blood rage, essential to flicker without cool-downs, the character ideally needs to kill monsters in 1 shots. To take advantage of that, the character use almost exclusively physical dmg (other than the Hatred aura). Vulnerability also make monsters take much more physical dmg. To increase the Death's Oath chaos dmg, the character use the vulnerability curse which increase degeneration dmg by 40%. This allow him to run both blood rage (for flicker strike combos) and use the Death's Oath chest without taking much chaos dmg. To take care of the Blood Rage/Death's Oath chaos dmg, the character gets a total of 5.4% life regen (from 5 passives) and 60%+ chaos resist from gear. After all, if you find a way to protect yourself against the Death's Oath poison debuff, you also protect yourself against blood rage (or vice versa). Not only because its one of the best "in your face melee skill", but also because its best used with blood rage : a skill that fits well with the Death's Oath chest. My first pick for the character was Melee Slash Flicker Strike. Why a melee skill ? Because, to really benefit from the area of effect chaos dmg from the Death's Oath chest, you need to be in melee range of the enemies. So I created a life-based melee marauder who use a Staff and use one of the following skills : Splash Flicker strike, Cyclone and Sweep are all working nicely with the build.įow now, I call him the Death's Oath Staff Marauder (Updated for patch 1.0.5) ![]()
