Hey guys

I've been wanting to get on the MF train and farm some patient cards to get a real headhunter for once (running replica on this build like a poor) but found most builds to be frustratingly squishy to maximize their MF. I did some researching going through all the popular builds and settled on a version of BV trickster to scale.

Defenses are pretty surprisingly tanky:

• Hybrid life ES pool to capitalize on instant heals from polymath and the rest of the trickster ascendancy

• Capped buffed spell suppression

• Grace and high evasion from trickster

• Elusive and crit immunity from Mistwalker

• Petrified blood with vitality

Offenses are pretty decent with explosions, 3m base dps which scales with headhunter due to being phys based. The build also significantly scales area of effect for big explode and gets a decent amount of duration to make bv feel not shitty. I'm also running pride/haste divine blessing (switch between them as needed) on the vertex which feels pretty good with 25s+ duration due to duration scaling and aura mastery.

I'm running a squire setup since i found one with a cheap essence crafted wand (a good one will easily double the dps) but you can get away with double obliterations and shuffling around the aura setup.

Happy for some feedback as to how i could push mf a bit further or get more damage.
