Flay Crit Lich Endgame Build Guide
Last Updated: Mar 23, 2026 by Aaron ActionRPG
About
This Necrotic Critical Strike Lich build that focuses on the brand new Flay skill and a unique super crit mechanic. We use a primordial amulet that allows for deadly strikes which deal massive orange damage numbers. This build is designed for online play and has successfully cleared +900 corruption while staying at full health rather than using a low life setup.
Gameplay Rotation
The gameplay is very smooth because our Harvest skill is fully automated through the use of Chaos Bolts. We primarily use the Flay skill which automatically drops Chaos Bolts that then trigger Harvest attacks. We stay in Reaper Form throughout the entire run to maximize our damage and speed. The only time we manually press the Harvest button is when we need to generate mana quickly. We also have Death Seal as a fifth skill to provide necrotic shred and extra survivability during boss fights.
