[3.2] Trickster, The 1 True Flicker

Thanks for the creative build! I love the shadow class, and figured it could be more suited for Flicker than Slayer/Gladiator, but everyone instantly assume Slayer is best due to the leech. How viable do you feel this build is for tier 10-11 maps?

You've convinced me that Trickster is a cool way to go since you get a lot of bonuses from reserving 100% of your mana! Would this make the DPS comparable to the Slayer due to the stacking of Hatred and Heralds, or give the build better utility?

Lastly, have you ever played an Assassin Flicker build? And would you say the Trickster is vastly superior now after the nerfs to assassin, or could I keep your build the same, make some minor tweaks and run a viable assassin? Would love your feedback. Thanks!

Thanks for the support man! Yea I am not a fan of slayer leech at all. It has other positives but if you aren't taking the leech then kinda defeats the purpose of going slayer in my opinion. I have input both builds into path of building while adjusting certain things for going slayer obviously and I just lose so much damage, even specing into Headsman with 20% more damage wasn't near as much damage. As for assassin, I played it last league and worked ok but just wasn't a fan. I would pick slayer before assassin lol.

Hello, I am trying this out and going to compare this to the slayer version of the terminus flicker build. Going so far so good, I really like the ability to run an extra aura due to not needing mana or having to run any mana leech. While we do lose the free melee splash, it's actually beneficial to be able to swap it out for more leech reflect maps or bosses.

My question is are you able to sustain max power charges? Are you relying only on the 15% on kill from the trickster passive? Do you find yourself always maxed out on power charges, or just picking up a stray one or two after a few packs? If we can't reliably max out the power charges all the time, I would personally consider dropping the 3 nodes up to that bonus power charge for something else.

Second question, which curse would you run? I don't see myself getting koam's heart for a while so I will definitely be running a CODT curse on hit set up. We could run assassin's mark for power charges, but again that goes back to my question earlier on whether you were having issues with that. We flicker builds tend to end up in some unfortunately situations sometimes so I think a defensive curse might help there. Either way, flicker builds are almost always solo so we have to do our own cursing.

Yes you permanently have up power charges until you get to boss cause you are no longer killing things and as for a curse I would use vulnerability or enfeeble depending if you need more damage or survivability.
