If you're using voidforge, all physical added damage is wasted. It says you can only do elemental damage (so no phys, no chaos).

Either slap phys to lightning support there for now, or get Hrimburn / Hrimsorrow glove to convert it to cold.

Also you don't have a 6 link in either chest or weapon limiting your damage. Infused channeling is particularly strong for cyclone. and you already seem to have required int to fit the gem.

This is the list of people playing voidforge cyclone: https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds?item=Voidforge&skill=Cyclone&sort=dps

Check what support gems and what equipment are they using. Especially your support links seem to be far away from typical, so you're probably losing damage from there.

Abyssius definitely doesn't help you survive on bosses, consider a different helmet maybe so you'll die less.

This is incorrect. It says "Deal no non-elemental damage." It's local to the weapon's damage output, not the added modifiers beyond.

My bad, I was checking his character in pob and it was saying 0 physical damage with cyclone despite having added physical damage on top, why is that then?

Yeah I noticed a lot of voidforge builds use herald of purity after all, however all of them go for damage conversion one way or another.

Either Xoph's Blood / Avatar of Fire route,
or phys to lightning support with extra lightning conversion like this guy:
https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds/char/aquagenko/FlexAirlines
(double lightning conversion gloves)
or full cold conversion like this guy:
https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds/char/JumpMan84/JumpFunky
hatred conversion watcher's eye + cold conversion gloves + winter spirit nodes.

The correct watcher's eye is fairly expensive (last time I checked cheapest one was 2ex). Hrimburn is a "budget" version like this guy:
https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds/char/%EB%9F%BD%EC%9E%84b/%EC%9C%BC%EC%95%99%EC%A5%AC%EA%B8%88%EA%B3%84%EC%86%8D%EC%A5%AC%EA%B8%88

You can still get respectable damage however originally the linked build before tweaks had only 40% conversion so that was a lot of potential damage lost. I don't think you can avoid the conversion route unless you play a skill that already converts itself partially or fully.

So yeah my wording was bad, but the idea you convert phys to elemental (fire, cold or lightning) is still necessary. OP didn't say if swapping in Hrimburn helped him get better damage in the end, but I'm 100% convinced it should.
