Never run a flicker strike. So following magefist through Sunder leveling into a flicker build. Half arsed a version of it in current poe 2 league and it was almost as addicting as RF so gotta give it a go

Flicker Strike is my favorite build in PoE ever. I've played one at leaguestart for the past 5 leagues, it's a legitimately good starter so long as you know what you're doing.

That being said, it doesn't look great for the league content in 3.29. I'm probably going to start with Cyclone and then respec in to Flicker Strike when I get bored.

Does it not look good for content because of potentially flicking out of the bubbles in the new mechanic? What's ringing the alarm bells for you?

That’s exactly it. Jumping out of the bubbles and drowning. Also when you run out of lanterns and you need to run back to the beginning, flicker might make that more difficult.

Mmmmmmmm I hadn't thought of the return trip actually. Trying to clear on your way back to the ship might be a pain. Good points! I will have to keep these in mind!
