[3.7] Alpha's Blade Vortex Assassin Insane Clear Speed (500K-1M+ Boss Damage)
 This blade vortex build is played as an assassin for the ability to chain herald of ice. The way this works is that the ascendancy node, deadly infusion, gives us 2% base crit on our herald of ice when we are at max power charges. This is significant because herald of ice has a base crit of 0% usually, now this pared with +3% base crit shaper helmet means that our herald of ice has a 100% chance to crit against enemies on full life. Blade vortex offers decent single target to kill even T16 bosses.

 Lab 1 Unstable Infusion Lab 2 Deadly Infusion Lab 3 Ambush and Assassinate Lab 4 Opportunistic Bandits & Pantheon There is no need to help Alira because we can get more damage from a 2 point jewel; kill all to get 2 passive points. Major - Brine King (Prevents stun locks) Minor - Gruthul (Phys damage reduction) Gearing Guide
สปอยล์
Helm - +3% Shaper Helmet
สปอยล์
 This is the most important item for our clear speed. This must be crafted on an ilvl75+ base for 2% or an ilvl84 for +3% suffix. Also the increased AOE prefix so we can run ice bite. Body - Carcass Jack
สปอยล์
 Carcass Jack is our best body armor because it gives us AOE which allows our herald of ice to have a larger radius. A shaper body can also, be used to give our blade vortex +2% base crit. Amulet - Solstice Vigil
สปอยล์
 This is our best in slot amulet because we have no skill effect duration on our tree or gems so this allows our blade vortex stacks to last twice as long. We do not run temp chains as we are cursing our enemies with assassins mark. Belt - Soul Tether
สปอยล์
 This belt paired with energy leech support gives allows us to constantly be leeching which gives us huge damage. This can be changed for a stygian vise or a headhunter if you swap the energy leech gem for controlled destruction. Gloves - Insanity Crafted
สปอยล์
 These are not necessary but add a lot more speed to our shield charge. Aim for high life and resistance rolls and needed stats. Boots - Rare Leech Boots
สปอยล์
 Here you will want to fill our resistances and get as the highest amount of movement speed you can. The enchant should be leech because we only have energy shield leech and life leech on our flask. Alternately you could get ms, pen, damage enchants. Ring 1 - Shaped Assasins Mark
สปอยล์
 We will want a shaped assassin's mark on hit ring. This will give us more crit, more power charge generation, and life/mana on kill. Try to get life and resistance on the ring if possible. Ring 2 - Rare ring
สปอยล์
 Try to get as much life and resistance on here as possible. You can also, go for the increased cold damage and the flat damage crafted mod which gives cold and lightning damage to your HoI. Sceptre - Rare/Doryani
สปอยล์
 If you are on a budget you can go for a doryani which gives nice shield charge speed and great damage to your BV and HoI. If you want to take the BV damage to the next level; craft a high damage rare sceptre with cold damage and spell damage mods. Shield - Zeel's Amplifier
สปอยล์
 This shield gives nice AOE for mapping which gives us larger HoI chains. The life, ES, and spell damage are also nice. A rare can be used for bosses if you wish but is not needed. Flasks - Atziri's Promise, quicksilver, diamond, granite, instant life
สปอยล์
These are the general flask that we use, they give a balance of speed, damage, and survivability. The diamond flask is helps to keep the herald of ice chain reaction working smooth. Jewels - Rare/Watchers Eye
สปอยล์
 On our jewels, we are aiming for %life, cold damage, crit multi, and area damage. These will boost our life and damage a lot. For a watchers eye, we are looking for the 2 mods "Gain a flask charge when you deal a critical strike while effected by precision" and "50% to crit multiplier while effected by precision". Concusion This was my first build guide ever, I tried to make it as simple and easy to understand as possible. That being said if you have any questions please feel free to ask, also if you have any suggestions please let me know. แก้ไขล่าสุดโดย AlphaChampion#6251 เมื่อ 5 ส.ค. 2019 18:50:28 ขุดครั้งสุดท้าย เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2019 03:59:00

The clear speed is really good! It's like old elementalist with inpulsa. I added vaal ice nova and now the legion clear is amazing.

I had trouble killing some map bosses in red maps before they killed me so I opted to use 2 multimoded daggers with phys as extra mods and changed a few nodes around. The clear is basically still the same except my shaper dps is 1.1 mil now and have no problem killing the bosses before they kill me. I kmow this build is primarily built for mapping though :).
I think you should take phase acro for more of defense because relying on just blind is tough. Anyways thanks for the guide 👍👍👍👍 |
