You ever wonder how painchamp it'd be to do a speedrun with a starter skill? Surprisingly, turned out to be a pretty fun challenge/restriction. Purely, a run to answer the question of what if. Would not recommend outside of the novelty/challenge aspect of it.

Deathless double strike slayer run in 3h14m09s. This run was done as part of Wraeclast Rally 3.25. Are there better speedrunning skills? Absolutely. But, damn if this wasn't a blast. Part of the fun was just seeing how the skill would work out especially since the goal was to start using it as soon as possible for both clear and single target. While it was used as the single target juice from near beginning of run, it took until around 28/second half of A3 to get it up and running as the one stop shop for carnage and mayhem for rest of acts due to passive pathing choices and waiting on ascendancy. Generally, the passive tree used in this run should fit decently well for most strike skills.
