Is this build strong enough to farm uber lab?


Yeah definitely. I'm running a cycloner Slayer and have had zero deaths and problems in uber labs so far.
So do you guys think running BM passive with starforge is viable ? That would net a lot of health, you can still use arctic armour (I think ? there may even be a better aura ?), and freeing up BM gem slots means you can run a lot of sweet stuff

Hi, could you please show how you've build your Slayer; items and passives and such?

I myself have tried to follow the guide but am getting beaten up bad at T4 maps and have no way to complete the "merciless" version of labyrinth. I lack both in dps and survivability :/
Is it worth it to push map as a juggernaut cycloner (lvl 84 for now) or should I reroll something stronger? My goal would be to farm bosses but i'm not sure about the real potential of this build right now... I have done the ubber lab and I have a 5 link Marohi but I feel like the dps is lacking a bit :/ (trash are ok but bosses not really).

You have to remember that they buffed rare and unique mobs A LOT in 3.0. It might feel like you're dealing less damage, but you're actually just experiencing the changes. You're not meant to kill bosses in 0.1 secs anymore.
Carry on my waypoint son, there'll be peace when maps are done.
Lay your portal gem to rest, don't you die no more.

'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony this league.
Try to make maps meet, you're a slave to the meta, then you leave.
Yeah I know that but I'm just questioning myself about the viability of the build for endgame content^^

Level 89 atm. 6713 life and 53.5k dps with auras (more if blood rage enabled and some dps comes from bleed gem).

Passive tree same as Lighty's:

Items:




Can run uber very easily with this, ran it like 20 times yesterday without any problems. Running t12-t13 maps atm quite easily, working on the map pool.

Next upgrades will be Disfavor, then flask of hate and finally a better armor. Then 6l-ing the disfavor and getting the warchief gem'ed up.

This is the third cycloner I've done using this build, the other two were Champions. I find myself enjoying the Slayer more. The life leech in insane (makes Uber labs very easy) and the 20% cull is a super nice addition.

Might not be a tier 1 build, but I find it to be the most fun build in PoE for me. I love being melee and in the thick of things. I think it's very important to get the 6l up and running as soon as you can (Tabula (20c) to 6l astral (~180c) to Lightning Coil/Belly. The more dps your cyclone has, the more you are leeching and the faster you are killing stuff = more survivability.

Kitava's is a really really good weapon until you get Atziri's, it has very decent damage and adds tons of survivability. Before I got that, I was using Doomsower which is really cheap and good for mid-leveling.

If you are dying a lot early on, I'd recommend getting Rumi's and Atziri's Promise flasks if you haven't already. Even despite the nerf, I always get them as soon as I can as I find them to add a lot to my survivability (plus both are very cheap). Then try getting as much life on all your gear as possible, once your life gets above a certain threshold life gets much easier.

Hey guys. I just wanted to ask if someone could help me where to go next with my passive points. I think I sid everything as described in the build. I guess more life wouöd be logical but which nodes make the mosz sense?

My Scion is running with BM passive and Starforge.

I don't use any auras or curses so I might lose some advantage but it just feels right to me (mainly because I'm lazy). I could use Essence Worm and still not losing much.

Did uber lab the other day, no problem at all.

Also I want to thank OP for this thread. Great guide.
