is this build :

better then the on posted here? you guys all post problem about the build in metamorph, but i found like 10 people on poe.ninja playing the build I linked

Tbh you can't say "better", because this is a different class and different approach to blade vortex. Clear speed better? Survivability better? Dps better? Without any context on the "better", I would say, I don't know.

I will start comparing with these 2 builds on a min maxed state, since you linked me a min maxed build so I have to use another min maxed assassin bv build on PoE ninja, so this is the one I found.

Price
On first glance, this assassin build looks way more expensive than the pathfinder. I have no idea what's the exact price of their gears, but just a glance of both of the builds you can clearly see there's a difference there.

Damage
I guess I don't need to tell you much because you can literally see the damage on top of there. 7.5 mil vs 1.9 mil so uh, yeah.

Survivability
Pathfinder looks way tankier cus on the gem section I saw that he have arctic armour and fortify on shield charge, also the hp is significantly higher.

Clearing / mapping
No idea, cus I never played pathfinder bv. I don't know which one is better but I've looked some videos on the internet about the PF bv, assassin version looks way faster.

Also, I just quickly glance through the amount of people playing this version of blade vortex, I found about 20+ of them, I sort this out by looking at their damage, if they mostly deal cold damage I just count them in, because either you play a poison BV or this cold version BV, so if they deal mostly cold, I just count em in, I did not look through their gear 1 by 1.

We are struggling because of budget issues only, once we have the gear set we pretty much have the same result.

Hi wanna do this build but going with self curse setup. Would it work and how would be The best way to do it?

i think a curse on hit temp chains shackles would be the best option here, unsure because I never tried to do it.

edit : nope it doesn't work like that, just use the old method solstic + shackle, that should be the best.

Somayd uses hh on this build but he doesn't use self curse

Thank yo for this build, it is mega fun and HELLA FAST. I have never been so fast (not even with a Deadeye), it is insane...

But I have some issues with survivability vs bosses and some random 1 shots.

At first I thought that my DPS is too low (POB calculates around 3.2mil) no idea if that is low or OK. But then I finally understood, that I need to gang the bosses with all my power/frenzy charges up, lol.

But still sometimes I have the feeling that I do really lest damage against bosses (mostly speaking about some T16 map bosses).

ATM i'm running a low CWDT + immortal call setup and a steel skin (lvl 20) which I manually trigger.

Should I drop the CWDT+ IC setup and use additional debuff like CDWT+WC and Frost Bomb on bosses?

Maybe I have too less leech? I'm using the Atziri flask + got lab enchant on boots for leech.

Any imput would be nice, as I really struggle a bit to level up past lvl 92.

Except that - the clear speed is GOD-like, delve is just ez. Loving this, tho it is really a bit expensive to start this build (as the necklace is a bit pricy/helmet enchant with + 1 power charge is bit pricy) but the pleasure rinning maps like a flash is insanely great :)

The only survivability problem will arise is your passive tree only. You can path a bit more differently, here's an example of somayd's current metamorph league bv assassin
https://pastebin.com/T5XyPRCr
According to him, he is still trashing T16 metamorphs and won't die as often as last league, not 100% sure tho.

From my experience, there's almost no leech. Atziri flask doesn't do much either.

I think you have to use a self cast lvl 20 steelskin and time it right for some bosses then you would have no problems on surviving against bosses.

Feel free to tell me how it goes after these minor changes.

Ok, gotcha! Will try to adjust my tree! BTW, for better boss clear is it good to have the additional Frost Bomb for extra -cold resist?

yeah frost bomb is additional boss damage, but if you have like serious problems with survivability, feel free to drop it.

Will this build be updated for 3.10?

+1

Cluster jewels?

Tried the build after spending ~17 ex in gear (Badge amulet, Watcher's eye, etc). Map clearing is decent in low tier maps. The rest is really bad. Low damage for bosses and clearing higher tiers. This build is in a really bad state as OP said in his last 3.9 update.
