Flicker Strike is back… and in 1.0 this Monk setup hits way harder than it has any right to for the price. ⚡ This is a low-cost Flicker Strike Monk build focused on smooth mapping, fast clears, and “why is everything exploding?” energy — without needing stupidly expensive gear to get started.

In this video I cover: The core Flicker Strike setup (gems + links) Budget gear priorities (what matters, what’s bait) Passive/ascendancy choices and why they work Early gearing path → upgrades to scale into endgame Defences + quality-of-life tips so you’re not just a glass cannon

⚠️ Heads up: this is the 1.0 version and I’ll keep updating it as I test more endgame and changes roll in.
