Well written, interesting guide, but I think it lacks some practicality.

Mana: 508 (No Pre-Buffing except B/O Sticks)
This is too little mana.

1x +6 to Battle Orders +6 to Shout Helmet (This is what I use. You may have something different because you are dumb as hell and care about a Blue or Red Color versus getting better stats. I also am pretty lazy so I do not Pre-Buff with this Helmet too often.)
2x 451 Poison Damage Small Charm
Give me that BO helm if it's on USEast. 2x451 is bm on east.

*Belt:
This belt is simply an Amazing option. There are two belts the standard shitty BvC build uses, Verdungoes and Arachnid Mesh. Now you can feel free to use either of these belts, but if there is nothing causing you to use these belts e.g. Dungoes will be more effective than any other belt vs. a Smiter or Hybrid Amazon, than why not increase your damage, life and Open Wounds as well as FHR. What 99.9% of people in this game do not know is any item that adds vitality does not get affected by Battle Orders. So Dungoes which adds 40 Vitality adds 120 Life and nothing more where as my belt which has 72 Life adds 182 Life. If you are a player that wishes to use 37% FCR versus 20% FCR, then feel free to use Arachnids Mesh but honestly if you need 37% FCR you are playing a BvC wrong.
Made me giggle. You can't catch good necs / sins / sorcs with 20 FCR.

Assassin:
This is by far the easiest match up of the casters. Ghost, Hybrid or Trapsin – it does not matter. They all get crushed by this build for one reason and one reason only – you do too much fucking damage. The main thing I do here is have Leap Attack (not Leap) ready for hotkeys so you can Leap Attack out of their trap fields. Once you do this just Whirlwind away because they will always name lock you and Teleport back on top of you thinking they will have you locked again. Wrong, they die and it is funny. If you play someone smart then simply try to move from South Side onto the enemy and use those Triangle Whirlwinds to lock them in place. You will make quick work of any Assassin. Just don’t go chasing them all day. It is just too easy. Oh, and if you run into a Kicker, they can actually dominate a Dual Wielding Barbarian. It is actually pretty funny how fast they wreck Dual Wielders. I made a Kicksin that took my friends 8.6k life Barbarian out in less than 10 seconds because he did no damage so I stood there and just beat the fuck out of him. If you fight a good Kicker, go toss on that Max Block under the Amazon section and beat their ass.
How incredibly wrong. Good trappers (especially w/s) are probably one of your hardest match ups. Good luck with 20 FCR.
