[3.11] Cyclone Slayer (RETIRED)



I'm retiring this build as of 3.12. I'm trying to maintain max one/two guides at a time so I can update them faster and better.

3.11 changes:

-> Rare exquisite blade instead of starforge.
-> Harpooner instead of Forceful Skewering.
-> Call to Arms and Enduring cry.
-> Dropped a few life nodes for warcry nodes, to spam EC every ~3 seconds.
-> Changed a bunch of links to add blood and sand.
-> Dropped mana leech on tree and got 3 endurance charges.


Note: Please post all your questions in this thread or come by the stream, don't pm me in game. Make sure your profile is PUBLIC before asking for help so your character is visible. If you have issues with the trees and you're loading them into the poe website, don't. Import them into Path of Building. Please check out the FAQ section before asking questions.

I don't claim my guides to be original or super efficient. I write guides to share characters I'm fond of.

Gameplay on youtube, or if I stream.

=======================================================================

Pros:
Okay map clearer.
Good single target.
Easy to get going.

Cons:
Expensive to get the chest. (which is a big defensive boost)
Not very fast at clearing.


Introduction
Spoiler


This is a pure physical two handed cyclone build. It clears well, is easy to play, has good single target.

You can easily swap in Devoto's Devotion and The Retch for more clearspeed. Use a rare helmet and Ryslatha's if you want more single target.

Weapon:
Spoiler

Get a rare exquisite blade with as much Pdps as possible. You don't need crit on the weapon.

Budget option: Kondo's Pride, or even Terminus Est.


Helmet:
Spoiler


Buy/Craft one with life and nearby enemies take increased phys. You need an elder base (ilvl 85) for it.

BIS - Blood rage attack speed enchant.


You can use a Devoto's instead for the clearspeed.

Budget option: Any rare helmet.


Chest:
Spoiler



The 3 useful mods for us are:

-> Enemies you Kill Explode, dealing 3% of their Life as Physical Damage
-> Attacks have +(1.1–1.5)% to Critical Strike Chance
-> Socketed Attacks have -15 to Total Mana Cost

Phys explode is an absolute must have in my opinion. The second is upto you. Attacks crit is more damage. Mana cost reduction is quality of life.

Budget option: Any rare chest, Belly of the Beast. Tabula Rasa.


Gloves:
Spoiler


Get any life/res gloves with enfeeble on hit as the corruption. Ideally an armour base. These are probably the easiest to get the corruptions on.

BIS - Enfeeble on hit.

Budget option: Anything with life, resists.


Boots:
Spoiler


Lots of life, resists, as much movement speed as you can get.

BIS - 16% increased Attack and Cast if you've killed recently.

Bonus: Tailwind from hunter boots and/or Elusive from redeemer boots.


Amulet:
Spoiler


Life, flat phys, multi, int, crit.

Anoint Tenacity.

Budget option: Anything with life, res, int.


Belt:
Spoiler


Pretty much BIS for any phys/phys to ele conversion attack build. Look for 40% max roll and 30% min roll.


You can use The Retch for clearspeed.

Budget option: Anything with life, res.


Rings:
Spoiler


Life, accuracy, resists, int.

Steel best base. Flat phys to attacks/attack speed are a bonus.

Budget option: Anything with life, res, int.


Flasks:
Spoiler




Replace the quicksilver with Bottled faith for single target.

You could replace the silver flask with anything else. Upto you.


Jewels:
Spoiler



Watcher's eye with 'Impales you inflict last 2 additional Hits while using Pride' is big.

FAQ:
Spoiler

I'm dying too much, don't have enough damage, can't do T16s deathless.
Spoiler

Check your CDWT gem levels. Check the PoB. The ones linked to CDWT are kept at low levels intentionally so they proc more often.

Are you level 90 (at least)? Do you have 6k EHP? Do you have at least 18/20 gems? Are you following the tree? If not, then do those.

If yes, then make sure your profile is public and let me know, I'll try and take a look. More often than not, it's because your character is lvl 83 with shit gear, improvised passive choices, missing uber lab and 18/0 gems.


Mana issues!
Spoiler
Get a -3 mana cost craft on your ring. If you're still struggling with mana, use a warlord chest with -15 to mana cost and socket your cyclone 6L in it.


Is this good as a league start/SSF? Budget option?
Spoiler
Yes.

You can use a Kondo's Pride to start out with.

Cherrubim's does nothing for us. We easily hit leech cap, so the leech is useless. The life is lesser than a belly and the retch chaos damage is not scaled by anything.

Can you do all content with this build?

Yes. However I don't suggest using this build to do endgame stuff like Uber Elder or more difficult bosses.

Slayer leech is very powerful for its survivability, but cyclone feels uncomfortable for mechanical bosses and the single target of this build is not great for endgame. It's definitely doable but I wouldn't suggest it.
