Level 96 Crit Frost Blades Slayer^3.25

Notes

Act 1 (See skill tab for Gem Links)

Look for a two handed sword or axe. Until then dual wield the 2 swords you will get from twilight strand

Regex: Paste the below text into the vendor window in Act 1 to highlight movement speed boots and G-R-R or G-G-R Linked items
g-[gr]-r|r-[gr]-g|g-r-g|r-g-r|nne

Upgrades
2 x Iron Rings
Rustic Sash
Movement Speed Boors
3 Link - G-R-R or G-G-R

If G-R-R links are: Frost Blades - Ancestral Call - Added Fire (Unsocked Ancestral Call at Brutus & Merveil)
If G-G-R links are: Frost Blades - Ancestral Call - Faster Attacks (Swap Ancestral Call for Added Fire for Bosses)

Look for or buy from Vendor at level 8+: Jade Chopper/Long Sword/Bastard Sword
Use Essence you get from killing dweller on the weapon or if you have found a blacksmiths whetstone sell the following to a vendor:
Magic/Rare Rustic Sash + 1 Blacksmiths Whetstone + Two handed weapon

Blacksmiths whetstones have a big effect early on as using just 1 will give early weapons 20% more physical damage

Need Cold Resistance for Merveil. If you have not  found a sapphire ring trade Iron ring + Blue Skill Gem (Buy From Nessa) and this will give you a sapphire ring

If you are on a 2 link and bad weapon at brutus use Double Strike + Chance to Bleed which are the gems you start with at level 1

Prison take Leap Slam as your reward and buy Faster Attacks from Nessa. This will be your movement skill from now on. Link Momentum support when you have the sockets

Pick up all Rare items and sell unidentified to a vendor if they cannot benefit you (wands, swords, energy shield gear, etc...) This will give you transmutation shards and we use a lot in the first 4 acts. 
You should be able to stop picking stuff up by end of Act 2
After this we are mainly after alterations to craft % phys on new weapons. These will drop and vendors provide shards for identified gear

Act 2 (See skill tab for Gem Links)

Look out for Pole Axe or Double Axe as a weapon upgrade
When you kill feliditis in Chamber of Sins take Herald of Ash as you reward and buy Blood Rage. Equip both these gems when you hit level 16
When you pick up the mastery for +1 strike drop Ancestral Call and add in Ruthless (act 1 vendor). You get this gem as a reward from killing Weaver
The fire mastery we take will proc thanks to Herald of Ash and Added Fire + the chance to ignite  that we take in the same wheel. Go back to Act 1 and buy precision as your accuracy will start dropping below 100% chance to hit before we take the accuracy nodes
The accuracy mastery will ensure that when we got precise technique in act 3 that we have no accuracy worries

Take precise technique keystone before the life nodes underneath
Bandits: Help Alira

* You may need to pick up a Heavy belt to help with Strength for both the Axe and Herald of Fire and you may need a Lapis amulet to hit intelligence requirements (If not you can wait as you can take one as a reward from Dialla in Act 3)

Act 3 (See skill tab for Gem Links)

Start looking for a 4 link at level 25+. G-R-R-R. Spend your gold on Armour/Evasion Body Armours as 4 Links are pretty common
Buy Hatred  from Nessa after defeating Piety for the first time. Drop both Heralds and equip this. Make sure you still run Added Fire as this procs the ignite mastery
Buy Punishment and use this on bosses when they reach 50% life

Weapons from here on in will be rares that you find on the ground with flat added phsyical or % added physical. Where you do not have % added physical craft this using your bench

First Lab take Bane of Legends

Axes from here will start using more strength so feel free to take Beef for +30 Strength until we take more strength nodes on the tree

Act 4 (See skill tab for Gem Links)

At level 38 take Multistrike as a reward from Dialla in town and swap with Ruthless

Act 6 onwards (See skill tab for Gem Links)
Keep an eye on your accuracy and start using a low level preciison when you need more accuracy. You should be able to level one up to a high level since we only use 1 x 50% aura

In Act 6 we remove the fire damage nodes and swap added fire for fortify. It is less damage but much better survivability
Buy Flame Dash and replace Dash

Start looking for a 5 Link (Back Market from act 7 onwards is a good source or wait until maps when you will have more gold)
Keep upgrading weapon as and when you can

When you take the mark nodes and frenzy on marked enemy drop punishment and use poachers mark linked to mark on hit

Buy inspiration, Assassins mark, Skitterbots, crit damage & ice bite from Nessa and level in off hand. Do not worry if you cannot level all the way we can finish the levelling later on

In Act 7 when you get the flask reward take a jade flask then go back to Act 5 and take a granite flask as a reward from innocence quest

Maps to Dagger Respec
Look for upgrades as it should not be hard to better your campaign gear. Syndicate is a great way to get a weapon upgrade as we only really need a two handed axe to drop with a prefix to unveil and it is very likely to be 120%+ physical damage.
You can then craft flat phys damage if it has another open prefix or attack speed as a suffix. Good movement speed boots are pretty common in syndicate too
I use a combination of black market and syndicate to gear up (Black Market for 5 Link and general armour/evasion gear). An axe with 400-450 Physical DPS should be plenty
You will enter maps at very low life but we do finally start taking some life nodes

Dagger Respec
You will be unlikely to have enough passive point respecs to do the entire tree so use Faustus when you run out. It costs around 2.5k gold per point at level 78. You should be at around mid to  early tier yellow maps at this point
Reroll flasks at this point to get good suffix (See items in POB)

Check the gear in the POB for this point. If you can get similar gear this should be all you need to push your atlas. You will take deaths in hard maps but you will get so much xp per map  that as long as you are not dying several times a map you will
still level up quickly

You need: Accuracy on a ring, Intelligence on a ring, life & resistances. If you are short on strength or intelligence path to a +30 node. We change a lot of gems around here so pay attention. Also remember to drop Precise technique. 
Our auras change from hatred to skitter bots linked to bonechill, herald of ice & precision. You may need to buy a new precision gem from your hideout as yours will likely now be too high in level
