He is retired I am afraid 
Thought so. 
Some Shattered Realm action: a video of SR 65-66 run. I guess it can do SR 70-71, but personally, I wouldnât bother going there with a Bleeding Trickster.
Honest question:
Why don´t you use some pharma? You play Crucible with 3 Buffs/1 Banner but went to Boss Shards naked. 
I think I used some potions in some of my SR videos, but honestly, I donât care too much for Shards. It almost never reflects how good or bad is the build and I just dislike SR altogether. I also believe that using buff potions for guide videos kind of skews the picture. You can use them when you play all you want, but since I want to present my build as it really is, I try and avoid buff potions altogether.
I am only confused about it. Because nobody except Spanks cares about naked Crucible but a lot of people refuse to use potions in other scenarios although they are only something like Ulo´s Blessing. Strange.
Because everybody uses Valinov´s Conjurer(?) for Wildblood Caster. 
I am not sure if it will work well. Kinda small flat Bleeding damage + just a couple of sources for Bleeding. But you can try ofc )
Because Crucible was designed for those buffs. Crucible buffs have been adjusted many times to provide optimal crucible balance. They are a part of it. When you just say âCrucible performanceâ most of the time you mean 3b/VB (3 blessings without Ulzuinâs and Vanguard Banner). When naked performance is meant, most people add this modifier ânaked.â 3b/vb is the norm. Naked is an extra.
Now, why is that? Because in SR you can (usually) pace yourself and take on mobs and bosses one at a time. In crucible you get swarmed from 4 sides. This makes debuffs stack 4 times faster and to levels unseen in main game (unless you leroy jenkins high SR boss rooms but thatâs usually suicide). Those buffs provide a counter balance to that. Builds that can do naked 170 comfortably (over 50% consistency with average piloting) are very few.
Now, I donât mind using pharma in builds. But if you write a guide this should be laid out for the reader, like: listen up, build is fine for 75 but you need to pop that Aetherward when you see Anasteria/Alex because there was no way around that aether res overcap. Or: health is lowly, build performs best with Ugden pharma. Or even put a little âpharmaâedâ in the title.
This is important not only for the players but also for the devs who lurk these forums and donât have all day to read every word. And then they nerf shit undeservedly (like Pyran, imo).

Well, I am on mobile right now and canât look up some things but if we talk about late shards (60+) we talk about unnerfed bosses with nearly all abilities and more mutators. So to use potions of resistance seems as exactly as you said for this situations: Designed for this (imho).
