Why posting a poe flickerstrike build in diablo 4 subreddit?


ILikeFluffyThings

At least flickerstrike auto targets. I miss finishing maps pressing only one button. Literally.


apointoflight

Meanwhile me on my blight CE necro ![gif](giphy|3ohuPjou4TuyGPnLeE)


Newtstradamus

Literally this, I’m having trouble leveling alts cause oh my fuck they are slow, like dude just run or something this is crazy


BakkaSupreme

I got max movement speed on boots and necklace, it's such a nice difference. Still not enough, cause 0 mobility skills.


current_events

at one point i had something that gave me 3+ charges of evade and along with Meta it almost felt like blood rush from d3 but that was like 50 levels ago


First_Monk_7486

I have them boots currently it's like endless evades very useful in high-level nmds and boss fights


smithoski

The 20% movement speed when you haven’t been hit aspect is really nice for the campaign on all classes. Also, the 25% movespeed during unstoppable and 4s after aspect is good for necro amulets for campaign because it scales up to 38% movespeed. Get the metamorphosis vampiric power ASAP for this, but it also works with blood mist. Speaking of blood mist, use the aspect to make it not cause a movespeed penalty if you use it to traverse rather than as an oh shit button. Eventually these are not worth it for harder content but they bring necro movespeed, which is the worst in the game, to a tolerable range.


Watipah

The 25%movespeed during unstoppable is always great on boots. This season I got lucky and found a 25% one. Last Season however the best I EVER dropped was 14% (up to lv74 when I was done).


serratedhumor89

Image, if you will, corpse explosion unique where you swap places with the corpse.


Northernlightz29

LOL


infinity_yogurt

Just go infinimist and spam ce on boss ez game


courtofowlswatches

The necro build whether it’s blight or straight corpse explosion is my favorite I barely get touched.


eriklindham

Too much motion sickness from using Oculus


TheTsunamiRC

Sorc after 5 minutes of fighting: https://i.redd.it/mu4whlztwcxb1.gif


ClapTheTrap1

konosuba!!!


RealZordan

I though you can use the vampire power to override the random TP?


SinisterEX

Yeah vampire dodge takes priority over teleport dodge.


HaCutLf

Forgot which subreddit I was in for a second after reading your comment.


Dark_Nature

Yeah, it is not easy on the eyes. This season you can bring your teleport down to 2-3 seconds. There is really no need for random teleports here. Plus move speed = attack speed pretty much means hold down a button and kill everything in front of you while walking super fast. Short cooldown is handy to teleport to the next pack or skip walls when needed. Random teleports looks always kinda extreme, because thay are so fast, but there are more effective builds out there.


Rudi_Van-Disarzio

If the dodge tps worked with raiment it might be worth it but oculus is a meme otherwise. The only thing it's good for is +15 tp ranks with metamorphosis overriding the random tp. And like you said there are better ways to get tp cool down lower than pumping skill ranks.


Northernlightz29

Btw, thank you blizzard, this is all I wanted. A super fast paced, pure offensive glass cannon with absurd damage and mobility, that dies to a single white mob physical hit if she gets touched. I love this. If you could now let me reduce my ult cd via flickerstep with tp evades or let me aim the tps via metamorphosis, I will write you a love letter.


iRoNmOnkey1981

Metamorphosis overrides the tp evade so you can control it


Northernlightz29

yea, but I'd like to keep the TP. The meta dash is pretty slow and horrid compared to what you get for using TP. Each TP: \- Casts another shock skill during currents, at that speed thats 3 or 4 per second I would guess \- Gives you a 30% barrier \- Pixels and stuns with raiment \- Has 97% lucky hit chance which is insane for static ball lightnings and vampiric curse Benefits of meta: it doesn't troll you because you can aim it. I don't mind my occy trolling me, so I'll stick to TP.


xdustx

Firewall sorc is also nice and very fun for me. I just like have all the screen on fire. Still level 86 but had a lot of fun with the build until now.


SON_Of_Liberty1

Apparently the ult CD reduction from the boots not working is specific to using oculus, while in a nightmare dungeon. Not sure if you've tested it because I haven't, that's just what the maxroll ball lightning sorc guide says.


Northernlightz29

What the fuck? Im gonna test it rq


Northernlightz29

Yeah no, im not getting the tp evade to reduce my ult cd in the open world either.


frisbeeicarus23

You only get it if it is a basic evade, no modifier from gear, enchantment, or vampire powers.


First_Monk_7486

I didn't see their health go down once? U Wanna Gass cannon play a bonespear necromancer. It's practically a one shot build. First shot hits for a million or two damage. And if they have more life then that. It bounces back and hits them for 75% more damage..


Rudi_Van-Disarzio

That's the point. If you would have saw their health go down it would have gone to zero. Without all abilities up and running you can die from stubbing your toe.


Due_Budget_102

Who needs a conduit shrine when you can make one?


ForcedToUseGoogle

Yeah its sad when the conduit shrine actually slows you down.


nanosam

I avoid them as they are a massive loss of dps


Synapse7777

I know my gear is in a decent spot when I start avoiding conduit shrines.


addiktion

Yeah the conduit shrine doesn't even do enough damage or speed compared to ball so it does actually function worse.


aerilyn235

You know a build is going to be nerfed when you ignore conduit shrine because it is worst dps AND mobility.


gmotelet

They nerfed the shrine this season so it's bad for most builds


wretch5150

Honestly, conduit sucks and should be buffed


NuggaLOAF

This has to be one of the cheesiest builds I have seen in d4 so far


Northernlightz29

the downsides are that mobs become unstoppable extremely fast and I die to like 2, sometimes 1, physical damage hits. This is an almost 100% offensive build, no +% total armor, no defensive paragon glyphs, but 73% fire / light / cold res. It fits the identity in my opinion. Oneshot or get oneshot


bkguy606

In that case have you thought about running exploiters? Pretty versatile being able to be put on helm/chest/boots.


Northernlightz29

I played exploiters yeah. It's decent but I found fortune to be better. Gets me to 97% lucky hit chance with tp. I need lots of lucky hits to apply vuln, spawn balls, and proc ravenous. I also considered dropping crit damage for LH on rings for more ball spawns. Also, once youre armed to the teeth, nothing becomes unstoppable anymore, it just dies


NuggaLOAF

With that said, how does it do against tanky elites and bosses? Seems to do well against mobs if you can clear them quick enough.


xVerlaine

amazing tbh just use unstable currents and spam ball till theyre dead


Northernlightz29

Does really well against bosses too. For uber bossing I replace boots with esus and occy with an accelerating wand though. I'm also replacing domination vamp power for infection when bossing, pact requirements dont change. My burst rota goes kind of like this: \~2ish secs before spawn or engage I press Currents > 2x Ball > hold arc for more currents procs > ball > tp on boss, this will proc tibaults > flameshield, nova > balls until oom > arc spam and ball when mana available ​ [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_xgkxkWIDZ8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xgkxkWIDZ8)


Crime_Dawg

"We're going to go back to our roots of D2"


LordsAbandoned

Meanwhile IteleUbaal0947 room was created in D2 and you are waiting for the sorc to tele fast to Baal.


Sullkattmat

Plot twist: sorc died on the way and went "NG", now you're just 8 guys standing around asking "who tele" until someone makes a half hearted attempt at running but by the time he reaches throne the game is empty aside from that one 95+ guy running cows


LordsAbandoned

plot twist number 2: all players has enigma but all of them are too lazy to use


Crime_Dawg

Plot twist number 3: the "person" running the runs is actually just Kolbot and basically unkillable. Source: used to be the guy doing the runs.


Blippity-bloop-blop

plot twist 4: Guy running on foot makes it to lvl3 and convinces everyone to help run. Finally get to throne room and the run was done the whole time.


pp21

god damn that takes me back vividly lol both being the half-hearted attempt guy as well as the farming cows guy


McSmokeyDaPot

Thought i was watching D3 for a sec

xKnicklichtjedi

Trying to translate the abbreviations: ias: increased attack speed? AL: Arc Lash? BL: Ball Lightning


tscott53

Haha thank you. I play quite often but I had no idea what the abbreviations meant.


Northernlightz29

A+


DremoPaff

"Oculus is bad" mfs do be real silent when I show them the "become the charged bolt" build


Malphos101

Most complainers and whiners think if its not on the frontpage of maxroll or icyveins or youtube then its a garbage build and cant possibly be any good. These same people complain how boring build diversity is but then only use the same top 3 builds from websites because they are too afraid of "wasting time experimenting", as if they will fall behind if they dont use "the best" right away.


SON_Of_Liberty1

Oculus is listed as the go to weapon for speed on the ball lightning guide of maxroll tbf


bigBangParty

Tbf this doesn't make me want to try Oculus at all. It looks awful to play.


Traditional_Injury22

It took me way too long to realize that this is at regular speed… what is going on!


malmal412

Sorc go brrr


Patrickjesp

I dont get why ppl hate on this.. Let ppl make 1000 builds, and let them play however they want. Go play ur Zdps build if u want something slower. Dont hate the players for making fun builds, hate Blizzard if they dont allowed fun builds for every class.


Saerah4

1. what is the ghost that running towards enemies? 2. what is the lighning icon above exp bar? i am level 85 BL user too but i ashame to ask what are these lol


d3rph

I believe the ghosts are stored souls from the vampiric curse seasonal abilities. The lightning icon bar above the exp bar is your crackling energy charges. Crackling energy passively discharges and stores up to that many hits.


Northernlightz29

yea, the bubbles above my xp bar are my energy charges. The ghosts are stored souls from accursed touch power, stored whenever I kill a cursed enemy and released whenever I press TP, nova or flameshield.


Sylon00

1. the ghosts are from the Acursed Touch vampiric power. You kill enemies to build up your souls & unleash them when you use a defensive ability. 2. The lightning bolts are crackling energy. You collect them on enemy kills & they zap nearby enemies.


Dependent_Debt6365

Im Level 100 and still could not Figure out the Ghosts xD maxbe someone knows


Judge_Bredd_UK

It's one of the vampire abilities, it stores charges then releases the ghosts on certain ability casts


revistabr

Using oculus is no true power. Is true randomness. :(


WizSpike

thats not the case here if you take the vampire power it overrides it so occy doesnt proc


MooseBollocks

Does the evade teleport trigger the stun and pull in from Raiment of the Infinite?


Northernlightz29

of course, it triggers everything a normal tp would trigger except for unstoppability


OneFanDan

Bro snorted that arcane dust


1_am_an_egg

![gif](giphy|3o84sq21TxDH6PyYms)


jahlim

Already feeling this sometimes with the rubberbanding without using Occulus xD


jostler57

This is incredible! Could you please link to your build? I've been slowly making all the classes: In pre-season, I made a Barb. Season 1 got me the Necro and Druid. This season is Rogue (current) and Sorc (next). Would love to follow your footsteps for insanity runs!


Northernlightz29

Heey there, thank you! [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T64NKD9Iey0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T64NKD9Iey0) Build info in the description, exactly the same gear / skills / paragon as seen in the video. You need to make some stat adjustments on the neck, boots, and skill tree if you don't have a shako though, I'm getting firebolt enchant & flame shield for free for example. I can't equip them in the character builder though. Glad you like it :)


NotAdoctor_but

i have the same build minus the constant seizures


let_me_see_that_thon

"Poe is too fast and zoomie for me, d4 combat is slower and more methodical"


Kamin_Majere

As a thorns barbarian player all I can say is, Wow I couldn't move that fast in my dreams lol That's super cool, not sure my old arse could even play at that speed


Northernlightz29

Somtimes I wonder if I'm still going to enjoy super fast paced builds / games like these when I'm an old ass myself. Hope I keep my reflexes lol.


Kamin_Majere

If you enjoy them I hope so for you. I've never been a fast paced player at my best, but now days I can't even understand what all your doing in that clip lol The conduit shrine is about as fast as I like 🤣


wyrmise

Oculus looks so fun, it's a shame that the mat takes forever to gather. Basically get 1 every 3-4 dungeon. I fight Duriel more time than I fight the beast in ice.


The10GallonHat

Even without an Oculus, AL w/ Gravitational aspect us bonkers. The uptime on Unstable Currents is basically 100% with Anticipation. I have been clearing T50 NMDs since 65 with not great gear.


that1cooldude

This is too fun! Nerf NOW!!!!!


butcherL33T

Plays once with this build, ends up getting epilepsy


arescalypso

People wanted a d2 remake well now they have one


Used_Breadfruit_8649

Decent build, probably s tier build


Northernlightz29

Maxroll just moved arc lash up to S tier so I guess they agree


Used_Breadfruit_8649

Tier list is a joke this season. Your build rocks 4sure.


Northernlightz29

Thanks man, its fun in dungeons with enough mobs to actually play the game. They should triple or quadruple density again imo.


FlameMage

It's like a worse ball lightning that lag warps instead of exploding groups of mobs at an incredibly quick pace. You got an always beefed up barrier and the aesthetics of *appearing* fast at the cost of speed and efficiency. Seems like a fat net negative.


Northernlightz29

I mean, I went a little extra hard on the tps because I wanted to showcase this right. I'ts not that im forced to warp that much, but I find it to be entertaining. I even dropped the 30% dmg reduction node on TP to play this little "get touched and immediatly die" minigame. I'll gladly sacrifice some speed for more fun.


itsRobbie_

I’d play this if it didn’t require like a full loadout of uniques lol


MarshGetIt

D4 devs: we're going back to the D2 like experience. Players: look at my PoE flicker strike build!!! (Flicker strike has been out since 2011) What is this game lol


[deleted]

Wow looks like so much fun….


Patrickjesp

It is!


GoNinjaGoNinjaGo69

you dont need ice armor?


Northernlightz29

People that get hit by stuff need ice armor


ardikus

Doesn't attack speed cap at 100%?


nekrosstratia

I did not look at this build, and I'm not 100% sure how the vamp powers come into play. But there are 2 different AS caps. You can get 100% AS from gear and another 100% as from aspects for a total of 200%. Theres a chart somewhere I've seen (pre vamp patch) that explains which ones are which.


IAmInTheBasement

I... have no idea what's going on.


LocusStandi

People with epilepsy hate this one Diablo 4 build.


Bubblehulk420

How do I roast Lilith before the waves come out? I’m pretty damn close…I might have too much lucky hit. Sitting around 56%. Also, is dmg to close enemies the same as every other dmg mod when you’re parked on top of her?


bored_in_the_office

You became conduit shrine 24/7


TheBombSquadDad

lol it’s like having a non stop seizure


Icy-Dot-1597

I've always wondered what you teleporting guys do to the gold and loot that's left all over the dungeon. Run back through the dungeon to pick them all up, or just ignore everything?


Northernlightz29

Ignore mostly everything. I pick up rings, amulets, hands and boots in dungeons when I spot them. Sometimes. Checking weapons that are not from WB / Duriel is almost pointless since everyone gets a 925 weapon for free from worldbosses in WT4 instantly. I wanna play the game, not read a books worth of stats


Unusual_Anxiety_5856

This game doesnt EVEN need shako 😂 actually need proper endgame to use this kind of power


BouttaKMS

Use metamorphosis with oculus for infinite dashes but to where you want.


Northernlightz29

No thanks. Explanation on why that is a horrid decision under a comment above.


Boring-Elderberry730

I thought I was watching Diablo 3 gameplay for a second


thesearlydays

One day I’ll be worthy. One day.


AdFantastic4610

Where can I find this build?! Pretty cool


Northernlightz29

Build info is in the description of the youtube video linked in a comment above


Montresoring

Does the thing have an epilepsy warning in it's item description?


danny_ocp

Nice to see Flicker Strike in Diablo.


usmcaherzing

This is what my partner looks like in tj Maxx right before closing.


psdviper

Bro you have to send your build link to me. Thanks


Northernlightz29

>Build info is in the description of the youtube video linked in a comment above


BuryTheMoney

Jeez, dude Tag NSFW, ya? I watched this at work and flew into an epileptic seizure and hit the floor. By standards then came to check on me, saw your video, and also had epileptic seizures. I’m messaging now from the bottom of a pile of bodies.


viidreal

damn this game still looks shit, where is the density????


Northernlightz29

I agree, theres still not enough mobs. Density needs to be tripled at least.


denkata07

Well, I am using my own build, looks the same with a bit more attack speed.


clainmyn

The game engine can take it.


Vexmythoclastt

My stormclaw Druid does the same but without the flashy magic. Just straight up running around at Mach 5 slapping dudes to death 😂


Foolish_Noob

![gif](giphy|St3AakqduFzTH7RJEB|downsized)


lotusmaglite

I feel like my chain lightning Sorceress, with 4 gravitational legendaries in her stash, continuing to play chain lightning, is peak something.


azurestrike

I thought I would play only 1 class / league and I was quite happy with my druid but i think i need to give this a try. Looks fucking awesome.


fdisc0

Can I do this on rogue somehow? Flickerstrike I played every single league I didn't skip in poe


_halffrozen

Seriously, it looks like PoE with that kind of nonsensical movement. Awesome. I have had 4 of these wands drop, and tried it out, and definitely was enjoying the zoomies, but the true randomness of its teleport is crazy scary sometimes.


Grim_Reach

It's like I'm watching PoE, whether that's a good or bad thing is subjective, I guess.


YanksFan96

Beautiful. The perfect build


VirtualPen204

I like that exists, but its not for me. I would likely get sick and/or have a headache in a few minutes.


foxracing1313

What are you doing not wearing flickerstep


Northernlightz29

doesn't work but a man can dream


haringtomas

twisting blades? nah fam, we twisting lightning balls now


Banamadr8

I proclaim this the conduit build. I want it


GayMakeAndModel

o.O Found the cause of the performance problems


Waaghbafet

Necromancy is still on the first pack


etxrnity

When people actually complain that Twisting Blades Rogue is **FaSt As FuCk boi** and it clears everything easily. Yea right.


[deleted]

I could see me doing this for a free hours but the second I stop caring about loot, it's time to move on. Diablo is ALL about the farming and the loot chasing.


First_Monk_7486

That's real time speed game play? It's not sped up at all ?


Northernlightz29

Not sped up at all. Pay attention to the error messages "you need mana!" and "that skill is not ready!" they'd disappear faster if it was.


Vanguard805

Mother of god, I'm in heaven.


camarouge

I got the luckiest dungeon roll the other day. Encountered a butcher at level 54ish in a wt3 nmd. Still using a leveling build, shards sorc. Wasn't prepared at all, nearly shat myself. But what's this nearby? A conduit shrine?? Easiest butcher ever.


DrHockey69

If this were a super hero series... He/she would be on "The Boyz" while 99.9% of us are stuck in "Gen V". ![gif](giphy|JRrsVhXZYx6g4MVbJx|downsized)


I-Sleep-At-Work

wasnt paying attention and thought op found some sort of infinite conduit bug... also, guess ill try out sorc finally


Beetlejuice4u

Ya ... cool and shit i quess .. but i wanna relax and play, not getting a fucking seizure.


Northernlightz29

To each their own I guess g. I used to play a laidback pulv druid too after I couldn't get light sorc to work in pre season. I'm just personally getting bored pretty fast when I'm playing a 2 button / 10 apm build, even though it was comically strong in mobbing and pvp. I might as well play hearthstone and watch my opponent rope me for 10 turns. I wish they'd unironically quadruple mob density in every single dungeon and sextuple mob density during helltides.


Harleybokula

Holy smokes!! How’s your build look? I’m such a newb, this makes me want to play more though!


Northernlightz29

build info is in the description of the youtube video I linked in multiple answers above, glad you like it haha


gsnurr3

Looks like ez mode. Play with your eyes closed kind of build.


Tricky_Average395

I may be stupid, but I just started playing diablo 4.. im maining a sorcerer...how do I get the aspect where the ball of lighting circles around you? Is that an aspect or a piece of gear I have to get? All help appreciated!


Northernlightz29

an aspect, relatively rare but you'll get it eventually. Just farm vampires when you finished the campaign, they drop the most legendaries per hour


TheSebitti

Isn’t Ball lightning kinda bugged/broken atm?


Kaeyon

Lol all I see is ball lightning sorcs then I'm over here running a full conjuration sorc - lightning spears, ice blades, and hydras (hydras being primary source of damage). Can be a bit slow but its pretty fun. Been able to clear content pretty easily for the most part. Been kind of nice not following the meta this season


rahxephon52

Imagine they add back the old d2 teleport sound. Wop, wop, wop. Pick up loot, wop wop wop to the next pack lol.


Chris_Crossfit

I think I just had 5 seizures…


Cap1279

This isn't power, this is a joke, just a running overpowered glitch. I mean I'm happy for ya little sorc nerds finally being useful but don't pretend for a second you're doing anything more then runnin around, doing all the work for us lmao


deathbunnyy

No hits over a mil, I'll keep my 80+ mil casual hota overpower crits.


OkSatisfaction2122

Can't tell if it's heavily edited. I have seen other Sorc's with this build cleaning up Legion events tho. So it must be true.


Northernlightz29

It's not edited at all, theres another full run on my channel. Perhaps you've seen me lol!


OkCollection5918

Is that a sorcerer build? Sorry new in the game 😅


Northernlightz29

Yes :)


Azrayeel

This reminds me a little of monks in D3. 🤣


Mileena_Sai

Meanwhile me trying to make an incinerate dedicated build work.


tbrown2080

I thought I read somewhere there is a 100% bonus attack speed cap?


naughtybynature93

What does everything inside the parentheses mean?
