As you may now know, the Assassin/Elementalist bypassed the nerf of the 33% less damage by using Burning Speed. Most people use this build to solo efficiently the Chaos Planes located in the Underworld. The common build for the run is this.

Glyph of Swiftness-Deadly Paradox-Shadow Form(E)-Fire Attunement-Glyph of Lesser Energy-Frigid Armour-Burning Speed-Lava Font(O)

Lava Font is what the build suggested for faster killing, becouse it doesnt scatter. But i've interviewed several players and got to know there opinion.

Just about all of the players who use this build use Lava Font.

Several Players say they use dash to bypass the traps.

Few Players said they equip Feigned Neutrality.

And one player says he uses Death's Charge.

Honestly, the last person shocked me. He explained that you can you Death's Charge to bypass nearly all damage from traps, and it can get you unstuck by the dreaded Aaxes.
What do you think?

Lava font does cause scatter after foes get to about half health, so whereever you pulled that from is full of feces

I use a standard Sliver Build. I drop Glyph of swiftness and use a essence to run. Kills fast and worth the cash to use the celerity. I use zealous daggers on chaos planes to keep up energy.

I use dash, its more mindless to just degen them down and not worry about keeping your health down.
I find it safer too.

I take lava font when I did it (I dont anymore), because its faster then just degening when u have mindblades. Use burning to get ur hp <100, then spam lava font all night long.

I've gone back to SF-Death Blossom for normal mode... it kills faster than slow burn and never has energy management issues. It cannot kill aatxe's, but I just run by those now since they take 5x as long to kill for the same meager drop rates.

I don't need dash since burning speed provide a nice movement speed already, so it is kinda redundant. Lava Font is my preference but if you really need an alternative movement speed skill, you should try Flame Djinn Haste since you can also deal a quite good damage with that skill. Just make sure your hp low enough to avoid scattering.

Off topic: This farm is not as good as before since the mindblades are now range attacker. I do not say it is hard but it is very slow compared to before. Therefore I stopped doing it since they are other farms which are far better.

May I know your build? I tried Death Blossom before, but the run is slower than the Burning Speed build. Maybe you have a better DB build. Thank you
