Problems with BV poison assassin

Hee guys,

I have some problems with my blade vortex poison assassin.

The build feels good damage wise in maps (T14-16), but the problem is i get random 1 shot sometimes or die quickly. On some bosses the damage also feels quite low. Maybe you guys know here the problem is. maybe wrong choices in tree or items.


I have made a POB for my build: https://pastebin.com/2i6LegE4

or at : https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/CleaveShot/characters

the char name is pepieNcocky



PS: i allocated Whispers of Doom on neck

Yoir flask setup can be improved.

First of all: Quality your flasks.
Second: Get a seething or bubbling life flask.
Third: Why aren't you running a Witchfire Brew instead of Atziri's?
Fourth: Jade flasks are awesome.

Fifth: Make sure to reset Elusive stacks with Withering Step while mapping.

I'm on my phone, so I could only check your profile.
It's also possible that you have low max life. Try for at least 6k, if you're relying on dodge.

And please tell me that resistance flask isn't because your resists aren't capped. Z.z

Sixth: Why even run a Quicksilver? O.o

Just check the profile and the PoB.
The elem res are capped without the flask, so it's ok.

Actually, Atziri's Promise is better than Witchfire for him, since he already has Despair with Blasphemy.

Also, you need a anti-freeze flask.

The stuff is OP. Enemies are blinded thx to the gloves and Flesh&Stone.

DPS is high but :
1) you may not have your frenzy charges up all the time against bosses
2) how do you shock without dealing any lightning dmg ? Besides, when you tick "Enemy shocked" in PoB, this is accounted as a 50% inc dmg taken by enemy, which is unrealistic.

I don't know why, but PoB says that if you put Poison instead of Vile Toxins, you'd get 14% more DPS. Might want to try it.

Now, you have 5k HP, that's ok, but one-hit deaths are common in endgame.

Ah, I missed the despair...
It's hard to check PoB on my phone, since that online PoB site freezes it. XD

But I'd still suggest a jade flask instead of that quicksilver.

Yes, he has blind, but relying on blind and dodge alone can still result in a few lucky attack rolls, which will "one-shot" him. (Since they happen simultaneously, we register it as one big hit, even though it's several small ones.) With high evasion, that's less likely to happen, since evasion has an entropy mechanic. And when it fails, you have dodge and blind as a fallback.

That's right.
Maybe take Silent Steps to reduce dmg taken from blinded enemies.
