Hello ! Quite a new player and trying to follow this build but I see some problems in the way. First of all I did mess up some points as I was using a sword and a shield but I will eventually try this build from 0 in an upcoming temporary league.

I see myself using Poacher's Mark to keep the Mana up high and recently added the Curse On Hit Support but no efficient results, I guess I have to spam the spell to keep mana leeching to keep enough mana for cyclone. How do you use Cyclone without running out of Mana, I think i'm missing something here but I can't catch it. Thank you for your time.

I'm playing Standard SSF league, so I don't have access to Xoph's Blood (maybe in 3.0!). I have all the other required gear, and some nice rares. I will try to make this build a fast u-lab runner, and would gladly hear some opinions from experienced lab-runners :)

1. I'm wondering if I should go with carnage heart, or just some nice rare amulet?
2. Should I go with non-legacy Voidheart, or some nice rare ring? Is the Voidheart setup up-to-date in the original post?
3. What is the most dangerous izaro buff combinations to this build? Or can I just face-tank-them-all?
4. What combination (carnage heart/voidheart/rares) is the best for u-lab, and what skill tree choice would you suggest?

Thanks a lot in advance!!

e: I forgot I have Bronn's Lithe too, but coloring will be pain in ssf... Probably just going to use 6l rare, or belly.

So I decided to give POE another shot as I could just never get into it as it was quite overwhelming as a new player and trying to figure the passives and gems out and what not. I looked up some guides and found this one and I loved playing my polearm WW barb in D2 and this looked similar with added elemental damage.

So I am nearing the end of act 3 and just received Cyclone as the quest reward. Its good and all and more enjoyable than spamming molten strike. My question is when will you start seeing armor pieces to start linking some of the gems that make this build shine. Right now my AOE is limited to cyclone range. I realized the items in the build are end game drops and probably aren't the easiest to find which I am ok with I am just wondering when this build really comes together?

To help you with your gearing I would need you to go to your profile on the site here, and go "Privacy settings" and make sure the Character tab stuff isn't set to private (have everything unchecked), that way I can view your character.

With leveling this build, it generally is not so great for leveling up until level 55, then when you can buy Ngamahu's axe at 55, it gets insanely potent at leveling and you just cruise through everything. The build comes together quite well once you are level 55 and can get Cyclone in a 3 or 4-link item (helm, gloves, chest armor, boots are good to 3-4 link). Then you can link cyclone with Faster Attacks Support, Melee physical damage Support, and Fortify. Or even just linking it with 2 of those gems can be sufficient. Check your vendors as you quest for any of those gems, or you can go buy them at Siosa in act 3 (in the library area). You have to do one of his quests first then can buy gems.

You don't really even need to use Cyclone for leveling until you reach level 55... You can just use Sunder (red strength-based gem ability) for clear up until then and molten strike for single target anytime you have something high HP to kill. Then at 55 you swap to pure cyclone. For specific gear advice regarding sockets and links on gear, I need you to set your character profile tab to public.. Then can easily help with advice.

Since you're starting out again, I'd also recommend watching these beginner guides and at least specifically watching the Sockets, Gems, and Flasks guide:

I fixed the privacy setting. My gear is garbage as I do not have any twink/hand me down gear. All self found while playing this toon only. I will be on the look out for your recommended 3L/4L gear and see what happens. Good to know it gets part later one. Thanks for the reply!
