Build Summary
This blade vortex build is played as an assassin for the ability to chain herald of ice in Path of Exile Blight. The way this works is that the ascendancy node, deadly infusion, gives us 2% base crit on our herald of ice when we are at max power charges. This is significant because herald of ice has a base crit of 0% usually, now this pared with +3% base crit shaper helmet means that our herald of ice has a 100% chance to crit against enemies on a full life. Blade vortex offers a decent single target to kill even T16 bosses.
