[0.3] Infinite Flicker Strike Build

Welcome to Kevlar's Flicker Monk, where speed, crits, and raw destruction come together.

Our core setup revolves around Flicker Strike powered by Hand of Chayula, Cast on Critical & Profane Ritual to stack power charges infinitely. To keep the chaos rolling, we use Tempest Flurry for fast clears — it generates combos that feed Hand of Chayula, giving us the defensive and offensive edge we need.

Every flicker hits with precision, our energy shield holds strong at over 7,000/8,000 and with 100% crit chance, mobs and bosses alike get deleted in seconds. This build isn’t just fast — it’s controlled chaos at its peak, and it’s ready to dominate every map and boss in Path of Exile 2.

Key strengths:

• 100% Crit Chance: Every hit crits, eliminating RNG and ensuring maximum consistency.
• Cast on Crit: Crits trigger linked spells, providing layered damage and utility.
• Profane Ritual: Generates power charges on crits to sustain endless Flicker loops.
• High DPS Scaling: High DPS with guaranteed crits allows instant pack and boss destruction.
• Monk Mobility: Teleports across the map with each attack, enabling rapid map clearing.

If you’ve been waiting for Flicker Strike to feel good again in PoE2, this is it — the ultimate non-stop teleporting crit machine.

Mapping

1. Hit a few enemies with Tempest Flurry to generate combo for Hand of Chayula or Staggering Palm

2. Hit an enemy to get a power charge

3. Activate Charged Staff

4. Press Flicker Strike the flick around the map

5. Cast on Critical will proc Profane Ritual for more power charges allowing you to Flicker Strike again.

Bossing

1. Hit the boss with Tempest Flurry to generate combo

2.Hit the boss with Hand of Chayula that has Sniper's Mark socketed

3. Activate Charged Staff

4. Flicker Strike that thing

If your Flicker Strike DPS is low, upgrade your gear and take more physical damage, or step back on, repeat steps 1-6.

Alternatives

1. Hit the boss with Tempest Flurry to generate combo

2. Slam them with an ALMIGHTY Falling Thunder

3. celebrate with a nice cup of tea.

When you hit, due to 100% crit chance, this will cause Cast on Critical to activate, therefore proccing everything that is in there.

Flicker Strike attacks fast, so it crits a lot, so it generates charges from Profane Ritual, this paired with Rapid Casting II, Overabundance II and Compressed Duration II means you get power charges back almost instantly, allowing you to flicker again.

20/09/2025 - Changed from Herald of Ice to Herald of Thunder, this seems to give more clears. Currently trying to get both Heralds to proc so I can remove Herald of Ash.

21/09/25 - Added Snap to Cast on Critical, this is generating infusions, making Comet rain down with fire, ice & lightning. RIP GPU

23/09/25 - changed Herald of Ash for Ghost Dance for more survivability.

26/09/25 - changed to Storm Wave and added Frost Wall to Cast on Critical. Also changed from Ghost Dance to Charge Regulation to give Flicker Strike & Storm Wave 100% crit chance!

28/09/25 - uploaded a new video explaining everything.

29/09/25 - changed from Storm Wave to Tempest Flurry and revamped the passive tree to give more energy shield and evasion (build update coming soon)
