(3.2) [Lighty] 2H RT Cyclone: Dope for Beast League & Lab™

New player here. I have a few questions:

Say I go for RT physical, Starfoge or Disfavour?

Does Hatred have any effect with Starforge?

I am building a Slayer/Raider Scion atm and I have massive issues with survivability. I had lots of close encounter almost getting one shot in T8+ maps. I could get Brass Dome but I think my current chest is already pretty great for now.

I've also read that armor could only block 10% of its max value. Is it really worth it to stack armor for non-Jug class?

starforge - phisical only, no elem no chaos.

disfavor - if you wanna go with elem\chaos damage.


survivl - only jaggernaut.

I respecced to this (and the build someone posted a few pages ago) for a slayer cyclone in standard with starforge. Its good and fast and a great lab clearer
Passive tree

According to pob just mapping with 20/20 gems and inc aoe im at about 175000 dps without shock from starforge and lionsroar up.
There a lot of room for improvement with proper 3-4 stat life jewels and more flat phys on gear.
Im using leg kaoms and im at 10,500 life but i think you could reach close to that without leg kaoms if you had good life rolls everywhere. (my starforge is mid roll as well at 650 dps)
Gear for ref

Starforge itself don't shock. It allows you, with the right gears, apply shock with its phys damage only. You'll need sources of % chance to shock, you can get it on jewels, for example.

I'm working around this, maybe posting the results here tomorrow or on Saturday.

Remember the enchant on boots from uber Lab. 10% chance to Freeze, Shock and Ignite if you haven't Crit Recently. Perfect for an RT setup.

Hello, what about Brutality Support it's not a good option for cyclone? :)

Only if you use Starforge. (or no Hatred/Ash for whatever reason)

Certainly not only if you don't use Starforge. You can quite easily play the Brutality build without it, you simply cannot use Hatred/Herald.
