This is a guide for an early to midgame Phoenix Strike Assassin. This is how I built mine for Season 6, and this gear was obtained by day 3 of the ladder.

exactly what i was looking for!! Nicely done, i bet you had a lot of fun recording it:)

[@Snoozealot]

I did! I've made some big progress with the character getting close to end game.

[@adamdworak3232]

@@Snoozealot Good job! What's your EQ now? I want to respect from traps, what do you think are the frist things to buy except for new claws?

[@adamdworak3232]

@@Snoozealot btw, you should make another video on end game eq!

[@Snoozealot]

@@adamdworak3232 The build is on hold at the moment. I shifted into another character, and the new Path of Exile league is coming next week. The end game goal to change from this guide was possible a dungo instead of a String of ears. May just keep the string. Chains of Honor for the chest. Stone or Valor also work. Kiras instead of shako, and infinity for the merc. 3 os Bartucs, and better other pieces of gear such as a better SS.

[@Dredswich]

Nice video. Infernostride is probably the funniest boots on a melee merc. Very fast going from mob to mob. No downtime on swinging.

[@Snoozealot]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Driven2Chonk]

That's a sweet double leech ring!

[@Snoozealot]

Thanks! I was super happy with that one.

[@rhodium_]

Dex also boosts your physical damage if you are using a claw so even more reason to go max block.

[@Snoozealot]

Yup, I think max block is the way to go for this build personally.

[@jamesgray9259]

Your gloves are really nice! 2/20 w/ mana leach (huge) and MF. Do not get CoH for your next upgrade. It is a waste of HRs. Ditch the shako for Kiras. Its BiS by far. Its got lots of res, CBF, and minus res. Lowest roll is the equivalent of 2 facets and max is 3. So buy a cheap one. Your biggest upgrade should be infinity for merc. After that get your eth socketed bartucs. The rest doesnt really matter as long as youre maxing phys/magic dmg reduction. After a certain point your dmg will be so high all that matters is staying alive.

[@Snoozealot]

Lots of good advice I still disagree with the coh. It’s a very nice armor. Str res dr more damage to undead. I love coh for this build although it is much more expensive then the other options

[@cichybob763]

Use STONE runeword its very good and cheap for armor,trust me

[@Snoozealot]

Stone and valor are both nice options. This time around I went with a chains of honor.

[@davidnagy4723]

Bro you mssing a bit thing here. USE jade talon. Gives you up to 50 all res and martal arts skill(plus possible sockets). The ICE bolt charge does the crowd control for you so you dont need to worry about pdr

[@Snoozealot]

You still have the split second time before the bolts go off. Jade Talon would work nicely for Res though.
