Here I am again. I'm currently level 65 in the softcore league (I'm taking it slow) and this build is working great.

Now, I'm no expert and I'm not familiar with every aspect of the game, however I was thinking that Kaom's Heart is really not worth it if it's not legacy.

I'm currently using

and it's already giving me ~500 life (consider the mediocre roll 36% and the fact that I also miss plenty of life nodes of the tree). Then it adds the possibility of having sockets, x% total elemental resistances and (if rolled perfectly) the same amount of armor (+some evasion if you want to grab IR for some reason).

Of course Kaom's adds some fire damage, but I don't think it's really relevant (with Kaom's Primacy 5L I already destroy anything) and it's very expensive.

Am I missing something? Why is this item so used?

Kaoms Heart offers 500 flat life before scaling. A standard cyclone tree will have 150% life minimum give or take' that offers 1500 life from kaoms heart (( which is a fuck ton )( 3000 life in legacy ))kaoms case. Belly is used often because of its flask benefit, nice life boost and all res, making it popular in newer leagues. A secondary 6L isn't required or needed by any means but if you decided you have something you'd like to run alternatively to cyclone, belly would be the best body Armour to do it in. Other alternatives such as carcass jack, daressos defiance or a well rolled rare also work well.

For those of you on a phone like me, cyclone in the axe with the blood lust support gem will not benefit. GGG states bleeding must be caused by another skill; leap slam in (the axe mod causing bleeding), then spin cyclone with support and cyclone will use blood lust.
