(3.2) [Lighty] 2H RT Cyclone: Dope for Beast League & Lab™
" Try to get a starforge 5l and a good plate 6l. My dps at 75 peaked at like 120k dps. Surviveability is much easier when you kill bosses in ten seconds. It allows you to kill the boss while flasking before you run out of charges. I still have similar issues with some t13 bosses, but like you, I only have mid 4k hp. Life nodes will help, but the best defense is a good offence. |

" It looks like most of the high level ballers go with either a 6l plate or kaom's. I picked up a decent 6l plate yesterday for 130c. They're not uber expensive unless you're trying to get all three resists along with your life. |
|
" Maybe you didn't read all the way through my post and didn't see the "...I'm pretty poor, so my budget is around 15c..." part. A 5l Starforge starts around 6ex, and even a 1 socket would be 3ex. And a 6l chest would run about another 20-40c for something with non-garbage rolls. |

" Sorry...didn't see that. Hezmana's Bloodlust Vaal Axe is probably your best bet. A five link is equal to a six link because of the built in blood magic. I would send a message to everyone on PoE.trade because the current price is 28c. I'm positive you can get one for 20c. Actually....I'll give you my old one for 15c if you pay me 5c back later when you can afford it. I think I was hitting around 70k dps with that weapon with cyclone, concentrated effect, melee physical, ruthless and increased fire damage. I was running that with a 5 link chest and was able to do t11 shaped strand without much problem. Anyways that's just my 2 cents. Wunshot |

If youre running Kaom's Chest what gem links do you take out? Warchief?
|
|
" No, don't drop warchief. Drop his links, maybe. 6L - Cyclone 4L CWDT IC + Duration + Molten Shell / Phase Run (I prefer Phase Run on Cycloners) 2-4L Warchief and Vengeance (+2 DpS supports) 2-3L Leap Slam + faster attacks (+blood magic) Remaining 1 - 4 sockets: Vaal Haste / Vaal Grace / Blood Rage /increased duration / Enduring Cry (whatever you want) " You're only 76, you still get good XP below tier 7/8. You're running Ruthless on Cyclone, that doesn't show in the tooltip. Don't worry, you're doing fine on DpS (Except you're lacking the 40% more damage from Ascendancy). About survivability: You have little to no flat life on your gear. Get some. That's well within your 15c budget. Also, you don't have Vaal Pact. I don't know if the guide advocates VP or not, but you should really take it, it's a difference like night and day. 100% instant leech lets you facetank pretty much anything the game throws at you, once you have enough of a health buffer. Without it, you will struggle to survive in lategame. " The difference between a belly and a 130 life chest is minimal. ~2-300 life, maybe. And belly has shit defenses and bad resists. I'd definetly take the rare 6L in this case. 3.5 build: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2299519

I have this laying around, was thinking about selling it in favor of using a Kaom for more HP, but not sure if worth in the end. I plan on using a disfavour so ud definately want the 6 link in the axe.

" I picked up a couple upgrades, I bought a good rolled Hezmana and managed to 5L it for not a bad cost; got a legacy Carnage Heart without the reduced Life stats; and an Atziri's Promis (guy selling the amulet took a set of fragments in trade and even let me go along). I also swapped out my helm so I'm not so overcapped on resistances to make the Int requirement for Concentrated Effect. So, while I'm attacking with totem up and Promise going, my tooltip DPS is 50-55k now. On the downside, I'm now broke, lol. Just gotta build back up. I agree, getting +Life rolls would be useful, I've got it on my helm and armour, but there's never enough. The trick is getting +Life without sacrificing resistances or too much damage. I looked at Vaal Pact, and I started drooling, but it'll cost me 13 passive points to get over there, and all I'll get along the way is +Dex. Not sure how to get over there without ripping apart the tree, if you've got a tree that grabs it, link me it? |

If I use an axe then for which axe nodes should I go for?
The ones to slaughter on the left or the splitting splitting strikes one? Or even both? Last edited by McGuscha#5955 on Sep 5, 2017, 2:10:14 PM
