[3.3] SSF HC/SC build - RF Trickster. 8k+ life, fast mapper. League starter.
 Hello I'm an old gamer gone casual due to three young kids and a full-time job. I love creating builds and testing them in SSF HC. This will be my third SSF HC build guide. I created this build after trying Aila's build many times and failing as many times. This plays the same but sustains regen and can use life pots. This is not a bosskilling build but a fast mapping build and a great option if you want to try level 100. This is not a beginner friendly build. It requires you to have at least 1000 hours of game knowledge. PoB pastebin : https://pastebin.com/58uznKf1 Video of build in action

Get as much life as you can and some resists.
You can also use an elder helmet if you find one good enough. This one is close but not good enough Chest

Life and resists.
Anything not eva/es or armor/es will be too hard to color so I wouldn't recommend it. You could use Carcass, it has less life but inreased area and extra damage might be worth it. Weapon
Скрытый текст
Try to get something with balanced dmg and aps. Look for increased fire damage and burning damage on a high attackspeed scepter.

BiS IMO is
It has best of both worlds, decent life and +3 to maximum resists. Else I would use in this order Gloves

Life, resists and movement speed.
You could use Kaom's Roots but I really like the QoL that extra movement speed gives. Belt
Скрытый текст
Stygian or leather belt with life and resists.
Jewelry
Скрытый текст
I really like Blood Grip. It lets me drop Purity of Fire aura and use the four points to Sovereignty for life instead. Also 100% increased Life Recovery from Flasks is super nice.
If you don't have a marble amulet you will need to use Purity of Fire and spec into Sovereignty. Else look for the usual life and resists on your jewelry. Also try get some Dex there aswell if you don't get it on other gear. Flasks

I like this combination best.
If you find Witchfire Brew you can use it as your Stibnite flask. Gems

Leveling and tree's
Скрытый текст
Level with Arc Traps or AW Totems or some skill you like up to Blood AQ. Level masters, you will need it for resists and craft a weapon. Get your gems and level them in extra gemslots.
AW Tree Prioratise life nodes after that. Ride AW up to Blood Aquaduct. When you get there do Normal and Cruel Lab. After that respec 5 points and equip your RF gems. Level to 72 in Blood Aquaduct. From there getting to maps should be a breeze. Level 90 tree Ascendancy
Скрытый текст
Start getting Patient Reaper and Prolonged Pain. Then get Swift Killer. There is no good option after that so you might aswell skip Uber lab. If you do it though just get the two 10% Increased DoT nodes leading to Harness the Void.
Pantheon and Bandits

Bandits kill all or save Oak. I saved Oak.

I will do more videos and add to guide. Will make changes as patch notes come out.
If they nerf RF, well then I guess I'll have to find a new starting build :D 3.3 RF Trickster SSF HC guide :

Hi, I found your guide.
What makes RF Trickster special? How is it to farm T16 and Boss mobs? POE is a new object to me, I am really interested in. I tried alot, to find one of my playstiles. At the moment I play RF full Life Juggernaut. Thank You -------------------------

" Good question. Trickster has much better dps and clearspeed than Jugg. It requires no uniques so it's the ideal SSF character. I clears maps fast but can't facetank all bosses like Jugg does. It clears all tier maps but I usually only do bosses only once and then skip them. No elder/shaper/guardians, this build is for fast mapping to 100 in a SSF HC league. Jugg requires specific uniques to shine so it's not that good for SSF. If you are familiar with Aila's RF Occultist, this build plays the same but has the QoL that life version has over ES. 3.3 RF Trickster SSF HC guide :

Hi mate do you think RF will be nerfed?
| |
" So I will play it without SSF and HC. Without the risk of dying in HC, do you think there can be made optimizations for the Skill Tree? -------------------------

" It would be weird if they did. Mabey they nerf Kaom's Way if they worry wbout Jugg RF but I sincerely doubt it. 3.3 RF Trickster SSF HC guide :

" If I were to play this build in SC I would use the exact same tree and use my current equipment setup. RF dps scales with life so I wouldn't drop any life nodes. 3.3 RF Trickster SSF HC guide :
