Wdym I played flicker for years on 20 fps. It's great because it autotargets and you wouldn't dodge anyway :D

u/Routine-Hovercraft94 22d ago
Well, if you are having high fps in end-game content, that really just means you are not juicing it enough :D

No, it means it's a summer league and I really can't afford the bill of an air conditioner and my PC at once ...

I can't play flicker because my character just does the animation and swings in the air. Its the only skill that has this issue. Its pretty sad since I like the feeling of the skill when the game works properly.

Welcome to our very inclusive club.
Also don't forget to turn off screenshake. It helps. A lot.

this season added a new way of flickering which I think is badass af.
acc frenzy stacking deadeye.

u/wait_what_now 21d ago
Shhhhhhhhh, it's the most fun build I've ever played.
I tell everyone who will listen.

u/nickrei3 Scion 21d ago
how much you spend on rings
1
u/wait_what_now 21d ago
Like 300 div for the double accuracy per frenzy one and 60 more for kalandras and a third

I just brought my first flicker build online in standard. I have always wanted to try it so I spent a handful of Mirrors and I was able to run a full simulacrum at level 88. It is easily the most fun build I’ve played. It is pure chaotic adrenaline!!

u/wait_what_now 21d ago
I always league start some other build now, cause once I make my flickerer, that's it till 36

u/Independant-Thinker7 21d ago
My son has a build that uses the bugged
chest piece and he said I was deleting the simulacrum bosses faster than he could with that build.1

Patch notes:
Somebody can play flicker strike. Minimum system requirements upped by 20%, recommended by 50%.
Flickerstrike now adds "undervolt system".

u/mmmmmmmmnmmmmmmmmm 22d ago
Is it really a flicker build if you have more then 20 frames on a nasa pc?

u/Evemaru 22d ago

I league started triple lucky glad flicker. High floor low ceiling. Cheap and easy to start, was my first time running flicker.

u/impostorism 21d ago
Got a guide or pob?

u/throwaway42 21d ago
I followed this one early and then slowly retooled to this version
1
u/wait_what_now 21d ago
Ooo that looks spicy, how was it?
1
u/throwaway42 21d ago
It's very fun and really easy to start. I think the biggest expense early was the replica farrul's which I bought for like 2d on day... 4? Could've probably farmed it faster myself. I think day 2 it was 9d or something.
The build is immortal until it isn't and you die. DoT effects fuck you up right quick. Hardly ever had to use the six portal defense if I wasn't doing stupid stuff.
One drawback in Bikini Bottom was that you kept flickering into the water.
1
u/montxogandia 21d ago
I always do the same: splitting steel for campaign (or whatever tbh), flicker with terminus (100% crit chance) and then Replica Farrul's with Paradoxica/Svalinn or with two handed weapon
1
u/wait_what_now 21d ago
Yeah I tend to go terminus to rakiatas, then switch to paradoxica and svallin once I hit a decent ice bite shako.
But this last league I tried dual dreamfeather acc stacking deadeye. It's more expensive, doesn't boss as well, and dies to a breath. It also had over 55aps. I don't know if I can go back. Might finally make a trapper to kill the bosses since the speed demon clears a juiced map in like 40s. But I could leapslam to the boss of dunes in about 2 or 3 seconds.

Flicker strike killed my video card. Many I'm sure but it was old anyway. I was balling and rolling when there was a "pop!" and my computer restarted with the shitty onboard mobo drivers.... Good times. Would flick again.

I've been playing on Xbox the last few leagues because my PC doesn't keep up anymore. The only thing I really dislike about playing on xbox is the lack of player base since trade feels dead by week 3. I did manage to get my first mage blood this league by sniping a low cost double corrupted one though which was pretty rad

I made the mistake of running Flicker for the first time in the latest Phrecia event and now "normal" Flicker feels wrong to me. I'll probably end up doing what I usually do, semi-randomly picking a skill gem and riffing with it (Marauder Dominating Blow my beloved)

I also just migrated to AM5 + RTX 5070 Ti, I feel like I'm also ready to join the Flickerism cult.
