[3.9] Cyclone Summoner - Heralds of Agony and Purity, Summon Holy Relic - League starter
|
My current setup:
including stuff to switch in: PoB for skill tree with Elemental equilibrium: https://pastebin.com/3aa0GcaN Current setup is for Delve bosses. Kaom's Roots are switched in for Uber Elder. Pierce instead of Vile Toxins, Qicksilver Flask instead of Forbidden Taste are for clearing. Blood Magic instead of Withering Touch is for no regen maps. High life shield is for deep delves, where frenzy charges for crawler are provided by Poacher's Mark anyway. I have dropped HoP in favor of Hatred+Generosity with Elemental Equilibrium. For me, this was a significant DPS increase. I am at 3.9 mio shaper DPS (5.5 mio during focus) with just HoA. My fastest (deathless) Uber Elder was 2:04 min. I am at delve 800 now and I can kill any delve bosses up to depth ~700 except for Auls with too many offensive mods. 9872 life (10600 with other shield), 1728 ES, 200 lgoh, 30 ESgoh, 8.4 attacks per second (9.7 during focus). I'd be happy to hear any suggestions on how to further optimize this build. Sadly my better claw has cold dmg on it and is thus useless with the EE/hatred setup.

" So should i go with +2 lvl minion sockets or +1 abyss socket? also cant find +2minion sockets,life, liferegen on poe.trade, can it be crafted without going over 1ex? |
|
" Abyss socket it only good with Hatred/generosity setup instead of HoP. Its also really really REALLY expensive to craft. I recommend to either get an elder helmet with the enchantment and craft +2/3 to minion gem level, minion damage support and max life on it using pristine+bound. (+3 requires ilvl 86 elder base, which is very expensive) The life regen is nice, but not as important as those mods. Cheaper alternative: Get a Starkonja's with the enchant. That this is just great (life, dex, atkspeed) despite not increasing HoP dps. |

@KäptnSharky
Playing your version, quite beastly and fun, but triggering Convocation and Blood Rage manually is clunky. Second unset ring would allow to put one of these back to CWDT, but it's hard to get/craft one with needed stats. Still, thx. |

" I'm experimenting with that for now. For bosses manual convocation is is most certainly better, as it allows precise placement of the crawler in front of the boss. For clearing, I'm actually fine with it. It's a button more to press, but so far i really like it. Pro manual convocation: - +10% spell block for a few seconds (thanks Uberness for pointing that out) - Every convocation results in a short pause for the agony crawler, during which he doesn't attack. With manual convocation, you don't have useless convocations. - Is instant cast (would of course not be an option otherwise) - As long as the crawler doesnt get stuck and with +2 projectiles enchantment, clearing seems to fine even without any convocation. - Free gem slot Cons: - You have to press another button. - Can't be used as often. |

Sure, I was thinking of linking Blood Rage with CWDT. Manual Convocation also helps to deal with bubbled enemies.
Also I've replaced Shield Charge with Whirling Blades, I just like it more. Last edited by Razunter#1437 on Jan 13, 2019, 8:58:07 PM

Hey
"- Ability to tank the darkness for minutes at a time, ensuring you can always explore those hidden Delve pathways" Could you explain this to me please ? I've just reached the point where I need to get those yellow things in darkness :D How are you tanking it ? |
|
|
@kiteohatto: It means you can stay inside darkness for quite a long time if you are in fight as you leech life/have enough life on hit to prevent life drop for quite some time ...

Quick question, where are you guys getting your chaos resistance?
|
|
|
Is there a way to make this build a little faster for mapping ? I mean running speed and cyclone through packs faster ?
