I'm a big fan of flicker builds. Having never played Berserker before, or made a rage based build, I decided to experiment this league start. I started out trying to main skill Rage Vortex of Berserking, but found the that the skill is kind of lacking in clear speed as a main skill without a secondary skill to supplement it. I decided to try Flicker as a main with RVOB as a supplement, and its working surprisingly well. This my second ever self made build, I think there may be room for improvement without spending extreme amounts of currency.

Why Rage Vortex of Berserking?

-Counteracts the life loss of Rite of Ruin. Berserk can do this as well, but it's not always up, and you can refresh RVOB while it's still active to reset the rage drain rate.

-Applies several on hit effects you'd rather not have in your main skill setup: fortify, maim, cull.

-Acts as a pseudo anti-melee bubble when Lion's Roar is up, due to the knockback.

-Helps gain frenzy charges with the redeemer chest mod: 10% to gain a frenzy charge on hit. In my setup RVOB hits about 16-18 times a second, resulting in enough charge gain to not have to worry about using Farruls Fur.

I opted for 80/80 block with Svalinn instead of going two hander. Clearing juiced T16's is a breeze. T17's can be cleared well if you roll the maps well enough, but the bosses are still a nightmare for flicker. I also took the lazy route and just got resolute technique instead of trying to build for crit/accuracy, but it works well enough without crit.

This build is very much experimental and a WIP. I'd love any feedback on improving it.
