As for me, haven't had much time, but I sold my major firetotem gems with prisms, now damage is quartered, killing stuff with my culling firetotem until the 6 socketed one overtakes it again. With path of exile's crazy drop system, even easy areas drop currency and I can't tell whether it's worse than in 75 level maps :p You get a loot drop penalty if the area level is too low. | ||

That's why GGG are changing maps to no longer display their "level" but rather their "tier" (1-15 corresponding to old levels 68-82). The change is purely cosmetic but is designed to help players who feel like they should be the same level as the map (which isn't true). Happening in the 2.0.4 patch which is sometime next week I believe. They are also upping the drop rate of all maps and slightly tuning the damage in lower maps to be easier xd. | ||

Can't help it so I won't worry about it ^^ after the most recent update to boost map drops, I was able to sustain 75+ and did the 3 map conversion for Lvl 74 maps and lower when I had too many of them I stopped doing maps after my Lvl 89 PA Ranger died in Tempest so I don't know if I would have been able to sustain higher than 75+ map pool was built up to 4 78s, 11 77s, 1 76, 14 75s, 18 74s before I stopped mapping I think I started 4 chiseling maps at Lvl 73 but didn't really start building up a higher level map base until after the map drop update in terms of my above map pool, I was still 4 chiseling maps from Lvl 76+. did a Ambush Zana mod once on a Lvl 78 Precinct map I made use of the hammer + map = chisel recipe very heavily. my eventual wall was probably going to be running out of Chaos Orbs (currently have 66) to either reroll maps or Zana mod higher level maps this was playing self found | ||

I played Torment and Bloodlines equally(because both were really fun) but I was mostly focused on Warbands this league and it was quite boring. I always said to myself if I play SC just like I play HC I would still enjoy it but it didn't happen that way and I just noticed that I don't like POE when I'm playing SC. If the thrill of losing my character forever is not there, then it's just not the same game for me. I hate the HC economy and dying to stupid shit, but it's still more fun than SC I suppose. I even played the famous Block Incinerate Scion build without dying a single time in 93LVL but I still didn't enjoy it. The sad part is that I wouldn't be able to afford that build in HC because everything is crazy expensive. Even in SC, I wasn't able to get good jewels because they cost like 1EX each... | ||

This gives me 7 frenzy charges, using blood dancers that brings me up to 9.6% life per second or if I use darkray's I can get 16% dodge + 4% from a vaal. Any critique would be welcome, I don't really know what I'm doing yet, just shooting in the dark and hoping to learn. | ||

There are many ways to generate Frenzy Charges btw, not just Blood Rage. 5L is the bare minimum I must say if you want really nice DPS. If I wanted to make a dodge based flicker build, I would get darkray's, combine that with Daresso, skip life regen and get vaal pact. You're gonna take some serious hits and you really need Vaal Pact for that, life regen won't really save you there. | ||

Though IDK what you count as "nice dps". The build he posted will most probably only work for softcare already, because a) Flicker Strike can be dangerous and b) not enough defensive nodes for avoiding one shots. I mean, pretty much no build can avoid every one shot, but 150ish life as a melee and no armour/endurance nodes is clearly not HC proof. | ||

also too many points also that dagger cluster below shadow sucks I don't mind a power-charge-less build. I can't speak to how leech works post rework I feel like you are missing the opportunity to take a few jewel sockets for 2 points (easy to roll say 7% life and a node's worth of dmg which is worth 2 points) but I don't know what points you'd trim. my thoughts https://poebuilder.com/character/AAAAAgYAotmw2GqM9W_IFBa_pn_tQbGztUhwUioL8-pd8nDVidNJUfDVlS4HHhGWDkiQG5oTcFbb1GyMnao2PW1sYqy5fIwL7LCly7TFjoqX0NtuVvXYdkcG2-d94yzhrGa5Pv_eJP3nVFFHjb8FtdQjOkJLeN2oMHG95j7P_h3BScjcMHxNkiP2jX1KfeOfh3YNjfzF7g6jik4qW68FLXTt2sFDMUz_Y3AR1VeXvqdgQUd-vTZlTYTZWhrDM1VLYeImlYw2Z6DC7AAGYnkV9nrvDPI= | ||

also keep in mind that there are more sources of crit than the tree (dagger implicits (x2), rings, amulets, ice golem, potential uniques...) the build i linked is 595% increased crit without charges or gear so 8 base dagger is roughly 56% crit, realistically you can easily be a bit higher base, a lot higher with binos, and can expect roughly 200% from gear/golem/etc (more if u really go ham) so I don't think he's in trouble charges are another free 150%, 200-250% if u spend 2 points and/or use the bandit reward, using cwdt assassins mark prolly. hell, with diamond rings, a crit neck, a golem, dual bino's and a rats nest (a lot of things yes) u can be cap crit with that tree 0 charges. | ||
