For broader mechanics and progression context, read the Bard class guide before choosing a source build snapshot.

How should you use this source snapshot?

Treat this as a current-season starting point tied to the source update shown above. Verify balance-sensitive numbers in game after any newer patch, and compare the supplied variants before copying one loadout wholesale.

What does this source build cover?

Do you ever just want to right click and clear maps? This build is for you.

Flicker build made to take you from starting flicker all the way to gear most of us won't be able to afford/find.

This is one of, if not the, fastest clearing build of the season now that teleport has been gutted.

I recommend leveling with lightning bard until hero level 20, here is a guide for that: [link=https://]https://hsguides.com/build/5PyqgmFT[/link]

How is this build divided into variants?

Which skill priorities does the source give?

Pyro Technician is your go-to for everything. Anything that is tanky enough to survive your Pyro Technician deserves a Crowd Dive into it's face to assist in deleting it. The fists will continue flying while you use Pyro Technician. You really shouldn't need to use Craving For Another Killing but it is there if you want to press it. It will stop your other abilities briefly while it goes off.

How does the source recommend playing it?

Charmed Blood is your primary source of survival, as it lets your life leech continue when you are full life, allowing you to survive on-death effects that are our bane otherwise. Everything is just extra.

For the dual wielding two handed section, if you decide to go for a chainsaw in your main hand, the only way to make it work is to have the two handed weapon equal in your off-hand and then drop the chainsaw to the ground with an empty main hand. When you pick it up, it will auto-equip. If that gets fixed, don't use a chainsaw.

Also, there are some pieces that are new to the game that aren't on here yet like Phantom Scimitar and Leviathan's Ribcage both of which would be useful in this build for the two handed gear set.

Which equipment does each variant use?

What does the source FAQ clarify?

Q: What content does this do? A: Yes. Anything can be cleared, the only limiter is your maximum life as your leech will keep you going as long as you are not one-shot.

Q: Sometimes I can't attack and I die A: Make sure you have a source of mana leech on hit somewhere in your gear

Q: Can you control the attack? A: Mildly, if you use WASD for movement it will prioritize enemies in the direction you press.

Q: How do I level with this? A: I don't suggest swapping to this build before hero level 17 at the earliest, use this guide to level as lightning bard https://hsguides.com/build/5PyqgmFT

Q: Okay but I really want to level with flicker A: My only advice is to have leveling satanics lined up and to always keep a source of mana and life leech on your character. You will die, a lot. Especially against bosses like Karp. But it is possible.

Q: Why are your charms not filled in? A: The charm creation tool for this site is rough, and the ones I have in place are the decent unique ones. Other's can fit, you just are looking for enhanced damage or life generally.

Q: What is the stat priority for gear? A: Critical Strike Chance as high as possible -> Critical Strike Damage -> All Skills -> Attack Speed -> Enhanced Damage -> Strength -> Life

Q: Should I stack Crushing Blow and Deadly Blow chance? A: Yes, but it will be through the tree as there is plenty on the tree and on some of the aspirational items. It's nice to have, but it's not a focus for us.
