(3.2) [Lighty] 2H RT Cyclone: Dope for Beast League & Lab™

update on my slayer spin2win char. been doing t13s and 15s comfortably with my char. I got some rings which solved my int issues allowing me to spec into more life. currently at 6.6, life right now. my next project is 6-linking an astral plate i got while running the t16 vaal map. speaking of that map, the mobs were pretty easy but i got wrecked in the boss fight thanks to the shitty mods. had an increased fire damage, added monster damage and 100% AOE increase which meant that the titty b*itch boss wrecked me 2 ways until sunday.

sunk 800 fusings on this baby right here with no luck. i know that it would have been cheaper if i had just bought a 6l astral plate but my personal goal for this league was to craft my own 6l from scratch. hit 6s in 40 jews and the mods in 10 chaos spams so i felt lucky. too bad POE's holy trinity, RNGesus, le toucan and kuduku decided to troll me. T_T

edit: a short video of a t13 run a few days ago where I used a divine vessel to upgrade the brine king pantheon power. don't mind the desync. my ISP was throwing a fit that day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8s4XNVtBgw&t=11s

I have a problems with survivability on bosses. I'm not that squishy I guess. Capped resistances, 6118 hp.
Does anyone can recommend me something?

You only 1 layer of defense: Life. Belly provides neglible armour and evasion, along with the rest of the gear. If you want to take cyclone to end game you have to push the gear along a lot more, like any other end game capable melee build.

If you really really want to just stack life, then you buy a Kaoms Heart. Otherwise, learn about defenses, shifts, blind, ENDURANCE CHARGES, etc.

Thats always the issue with slayer, people try to out leech everything. That doesnt work when end game bosses can hit for 12K unmitigated.

Just attempted and downed the Minotaur Guardian. First attempt as a Juggernaut and was able to do it. Died 2x but that was just bad positioning on my part. Took less than 5min to get to the boss. Boss fight was around 6min which included the time lost for the 2 deaths. This was with a 5L cyclone and 5400 hp. Probably not as fast as some builds but the defense of the character made the fight comfortable to run.

How much tooltip dps does your cyclone have? im thinking of going for the fortify&determination playstyle too but im scared of too much dps loss

Edit: Ok i just switched and i lost like 15k dps but i feel a lot safer now so thats rly good, thanks for the inspiration hitmansnbr1 :D

I'm really enjoying this build. I'm only level 77, but it's super fun.

I'm rolling with an Ngahamu axe.

Without Kaom's Heart I'm dying on 87 lvl from one-shots all the time. Don't know what to do... I have only ~100c and no idea what to improve and how... 5k life, 17,5k armor, all resists and still squishy.

I tried Belly of the Beast and it gave my mayby 700 hp but took nearly 10k of armor. Mayby some gems/skills? Any ideas for this low budget?

I think you need to use a low lvl cast when damage taken + molten shell so it activates before you take more than 50% of your health. You can also use ancestral warchief totem for dps. You may want to change your weapon to Hezmana's so all your attack skills (instead of being socketed to the weapon or not) use life instead of mana. Besides I think you are missing Blood Rage, a very nice buff.

My tooltip during Minotaur was around 25k without charges ETC. Tooltip buffed during fight was probably around 42k when I checked. Path of Building shows my DPS around 75k but I'm not sure how accurate that is:

Nice guide ty mate.

Cycloning the first time since awakening beta now, seems fun, just kinda lost on the new support gems.

Just wondering is the Ruthless support the way to go nowadays?

Quote from poewiki:

With Cyclone, Ruthless Blows doesn't work as normal as intended, Ruthless Blow won't trigger every 3rd attack, however, it will trigger every 3rd series of spin attacks made by Cyclone.

I mean is it worth vs other supports?

Atm running zerker and if i put "on" all the bells and whistles on poe builder (path of building)
the theoretical max i can put out would be somewhere 757k (switching faster attacks for conc/inc aoe and fortify for ruthless, but then i would have to get my fortify from somewhere else ((leap slam maybe))) but i think on normal situations i wont be reaching that.

Any inputs on how i should manage my gems or are they just like fine atm.
Like i said im kinda lost with new supports

I went with the "Indomitable" notable and Lunaris + Gruthkul combo which seems to help alot dealing with phys damage.

I asked once, and I'm pretty sure it was overlooked.

I'm just getting back into PoE, Haven't played since The Masters were released... ( I know, it's been a very long time)

I've been following the build pretty regularly...Juggernaut, cyclone, 7 endurance charges, tidebreaker.
Pretty sure my character isn't set to private, please take a look at it.

What I'm looking for is some help.

My tooltip DPS in town is 45,874 (with Hatred and Haste) Now this number ramps up to about 60k with the frenzy charges provided from Blood Rage and the extra damage per endurance charge from tidebreaker.... yet I still feel it's way too low...

Besides my rings, and amulet which are both really weak I think... at least in terms of defense, where else should I start dumping currency...



Scenario (This is why I'm really down in the dumps and questioning everything I've built up on this character) : EducationInTrueSavagery does really well solo, he basically walks through (spins through) tier 12-13 maps... Sure he takes a little bit longer to kill bosses and what not.. and sure he dies if he kills 15 goatmen at the same time when they have molten shell active, and sure he might sometimes die on a certain boss if he's ignoring mechanics... but I join a group and my DPS is noticeably garbage, my movement speed is noticeably garbage. I've noticed on multiple occasions other cycloners just speeding fast as hell through shit. Juggernaut Cycloners included.

Sorry for the wall of text and rant... It's just really getting to me.

I have a decent amount of currency and I just don't know where to invest it, I don't really have any friends that I play this game with (See "I just started playing again and haven't played since The Masters were released") that I could ask for help, or seek advice from someone I look up to you know...

All in all, I need help Marauders.


TLDR: I've noticed that I'm weak as fuck, and I thought I was doing pretty well, please be my mentor.

Hello Lighty, Ironfist here. So ever since i started my char i been deliberating weather slayer or berserker is the best. If you could give an in depth explanation i would appreciate it

here is a link i found comparing the two classes
