[3.7] PotCG Cyclon Champion, being Meta without Meta items [WIP]
Do you like playing Meta but not really meta ? This is for you.
Build revolves around this unique I dropped a 5L PotCG early in this league, and wanted to try it as a cycloner. Results are amazing ! Disclaimer

I am not a Hardcore player ! Gear is not perfect yet, and I am sure the build has room for improvment. Feel free to contribute !
PotCGHamp reddit thread also helped me polishing this build Personnal achievments so far >Red Elder w/o any difficulties. >Uber Atziri, one dumb death to reflect >On my way to shaper ! The classic Uber Elder video kill (not by me)

Kill credit to PotCGHamp. Came accross his video and it helped me perfecting my build, thanks to him ! Pros - High single target dps. Bosses just MELT. - Good clear speed, not exceptionnal tho - Tanky, even with abyssus - Non meta items, uniques are cheap for this build ! Cons - Not a zoom zoom build. No shatters nor fancy explosions - As the build requires several uniques to work well, resist balance could be frustrating. How does this build works ? - With PotCG, you need to stack strengh and flat damage to get your dps ! - Impale is not calculed by PoB, but its a HUGE source of your dps ! Sitting at 94% chance of impale atm. PoB
