yep should do fine either way. if you struggle with gface throw on the kira's

U max crushing blow use 6 socket pb with 4ber 2 lo

Be carefull, attack speed and kick were bugged for some time. You can see videos of kick assa during those weeks that she attacked faster and allways hitting.

I have. Nonladder riftsin with an uber set that I use. I'll respond here later with it when I get home. I find it to be a very fun class to use and she can solo ubers with very little gear investment beyond what I used in my rift set up. I am not. Min/maxer and there are surely better ways to do it, but if you want a fun and unique class she is fully capable.

Dno how many hundred times i posted this build but here it goes:

Guilaume 15ias/res jool
Stormshield 15ias/res jool
Stormlash 15ias/res jool
Atma's scarab
Upped gores
Forti, dt for position, u can also use enigma but i prefer forti for ubers, the one i built first actually used forti).
10fcr/dual leech/res/dex/ar ring
Raven
Strings (arach can be used if eni for 30/65fcr breaks)
20ias/10cb/adds gloves
Cta + spirit (demon limb in cube in inventory, or in stash)

Torch
Annie
Life/res scs
5-6 trap skillers if for general pvp for death sentry explotion area(also max death sentry if general pvm)
Martial arts if not.

Usable skills in ubers:
Dragon talon (main attack)
Cloak of shadows (-enemy def, keeps minions away)
Fade (dr and resists, the 95ias break reach highest kick and trap lay speed).

Mine was super eco and did not have proper res, so nearly got 1 tapped by meph. Had to use juvs. But it melted every boss in seconds. (you dont leech vs meph without lt).

So the build cost a little. But the advantage is that it does general pvm really well (infi merc for that, act 2 might)

Its also faster than smiter in ubers, but more squishy.

I also like at least 1 point to dragon tail(kb stun aoe when stuck in a flock of hard hitting minions ^^)

If ur only doing ubers u can try to max out dragon tail, use martial arts skillers, swap stormshield for pheonix(maby, u will drop down 1 ias break).

Then when cb is done beeing effective, and amp is already triggered and boss of none fire immune is low than that skill has inzane damage.
Cause it scales out of the initial physical kick damage.. When amped that is high, then fire scales high and pheonix + merc if alive will make monster take great fire damage. Pheonix helps two ways(-res and 400% ed).

So its up to what u want to do with the build. I have not tried using a high dragon tail build, and such build usually use tiger strike to add inn like 1000% ed prior to trigger that inzane fire dmg kick. But its worth a try, just to see if it can speed up run vs low lifed ubers with low fire res.

Cb:
Gloves 10
Stormlash 33
Guilaume 35
Gores 15
= 93%

Ow:
10%

Amp = -100% dr and break immunes

Actually found my guide:
https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=87859201&f=87

And here is a maxed out one for general pvm. On that i tried to make merc stay Alice even in ubers with leech/res/dr etc. That was the idea of it.

Its mainly kitted for general pvm and ubers, for pure ubers u change trap sks for martial arts.

Im on phone so cant see my skill distribution etc xD

I might get some time tomorrow on a pc to calculate how dragon tail at end life of ubers would do, i will come back to you with that one

Checked how dtail would go.
And it does not seem to deal very much dmg.
Most bosses that are not fire immune ends at -10, would ofc be -38 if pheonix at the cost of 1 ias break.
And in the end dragon talon does kills the full boss in seconds anyway.
Mephisto is not affected by conv either, so has 75fr anyway then.

You can use bos vs duriel as you already are at either 35 or 50% dr without fade depending on belt.

skimmed through the thread, some thoughts:

kicksins were bugged in 2.3 where they always hit, this made them the fastest uber killers in the game. this is no longer the case in 2.4 and was not the case back on lod.
kicksins at any budget are slower at clearing ubers than the most budget of smiters. if your goal is just to get some torches, you can do it cheaper and easier with a pally.

if you are going to clear ubers with a kicksin, something like what gel87 described will work fine.
be aware that lifetap/amp will override each other. amp provides best clear times if you are going for some kind of record, but in all honesty having dracs on is much safer on a budget.
other than that, your standard stormlash/gface/gores setup should be good enough.

also, imho, its better to just make a pvm kick/trapper and throw on uber gear (mostly res stack vs meph) when clearing ubers, rather than making the entire build dedicated to killing ubers and not overall pvm.
you aren't going to break any world records now that kicks are patched and smite is king again.

the dtail fire is also based off physical dealt, and ubers have high physical resists to before their wtf elemental resists

Yes i know, the idea was that after kicking them low with DT they would be amped. And when low life left when cb has less effect maby there was a chance that you could slam a hard dtail or 3 in their face for quicklier end their last lifes.
As amped they will be -50 or lower dr%.
However i checked vs all bosses and it wont be very high. So its a waste and its better to skill trap syntenergies to faster general pvm as you say.
