your gonna need to use a strength blade talon, bloods, and around 5 or 6 (forgot the exact number) bos when u cast it to hit the next bp. I can direct u to sips's post on the hardcore bords of dii cause he is a pretty good sorce.

Sorry, it got deleted when the forums went crazy and deleted all the threads/posts. It went a little something like this:

Level 25-26 kicksin:
Skills:
Max Dragon talon
1 point in dragon flight
5 in burst of speed (will be 7 with items, giving 41% ias)
1 in prereq. to these skills.

If you only want a normal rush, then make a level 26 assasin (gives you 29 skill points to work with, which is just enough for the skills). If you are going to nm+, go to level 25, and put all additional points into dragon flight.

Now the gear:
3 perfect rubied
4 perfect rubied armor OR artisans armor of life with 3x p rubies.
Angelics amulet and 2 rings
Bloodfists gloves
deaths belt
Sigons tower shield with "eld" rune in it
"strength" runeworded Blade talon, kris or schimitar (it must be -20 attack speed for the right ias breakpoint to be met) I suggest 2 socket blade talon (runeword is Amn-tir)
Two +1 assasin skills claws on switch (for casting burst of speed)
Rare/magical War boots. They must be war boots for maximum damage. You can get a good 20%faster run, +stats rare pair or just grab some magical crap ones.
Charms:15 life smalls, +5 str/dex larges and a few elemental (cold damage) to suit your needs. Max damage charms and jewels dont work with this build.

Keep in mind that Max damage jewels and charms dont affect kick damage, so be happy you dont have to gather tons of expensive jewels/charms. Elemental damage (from charms) will affect kick damage but it will not show up on listed damage. THis can be verified by kicking things and the elemental attack will show up. Enhanced damage jewels do work with this build, but they add very little damage. I find that if you want a damage boost, Switch from a 3 p rubied helm to a 3 P amythiested helm, this will add about 60 to max damage.

Stats with this build should be....
125 strengh with all gear on (just enough for boots)
67 dex (if using Eld sigons) or enough dex for max block
ALL vitality, put the remainging points in here
None energy.

A few tips when dueling:
Before a duel, switch to the +1 assasin skill claws and cast (level 7) burst of speed. Switch back to "strength" weapon and sigons shield.

Chargers are easy to kill. There are a few ways of really nailing them. I suggest saving your dragon flight (teleport kick) for the end of the duel, to surprise them. You can wait for them in a corner, when they charge you, block them and Dragon talon them. They should either die, exit, or run away. If they run away, Dragon flight right on top of them then dragon talon as fast as you can. That should definately finish em off.

If you know your opponent uses chicken (Exits instantly when you kick them) just forget it. If you really hate them, get your friend to enchant you, then kill em in 1 hit.

When dueling other kickers, its important to try to dragon talon them at all times. Be the first to attack and be aggressive.

level 30-50 sorcs are very easy to kill, unless they are especially made for dueling. Keep a 3 perfect diamonded shield in your stash to give you max resists against these ladies. They usually have low life and will die if you get a lucky hit.


This is comming from someone who has made Four, going on five kicksins. (MK-Defender 5 is in the makings). I still have a mule full of level 50+ ears and if you want some more advice, PM me or whisper *sip1 on Useast ladder.

have fun killing everyone with a dirt cheap build

............................................. then a guy posted another segment

Are you sure about BoS lvl? Cause according to this:

http://e.domaindlx.com/JRichard/D2/.../attackcalc.xls

you only need lvl 6 BoS with 10% from Bloodfists

............................................this turned out to be true so thats what u need

If u cant make a kicker after all that plz delete

[NRG]

Wow Thanks for the help

[Vixen]

Luckily I just found an Artisans armor with life on it By the way, that's a great guide to the basics of a kicker, i'll probably build off it with my kicker

Forgot this: Did you suggest a Three P rubied helm? If so, i'm in luck again (Found a 3 OS 20 to life helm.)
