[3.17] For Slayer / Champion - Ngamahu Cyclone / Consecrated Path / Tectonic Slam
|
I'm thinking ahead to the next league in November and looking for a league starter lab runner. This build looks very appealing. Can anyone who played it early in this league tell me roughly how much they were paying to get it up and running? Is Ngamahu very expensive early league? What about the other stuff?
Thanks. |

Does anyone to take a look at my build? I seem to have difficulty reaching more life and Armour. Is it because of my level or do I need to upgrade my gear? Will this build be able to clear uber lab as someone inexperienced? Thanks!

" 80+K cyclone damage in hideout with 6000 life will be good for Shaper. For Uber Atziri, 100+K damage will be better because you want her dead asap. Inspecting your gears, you can drop Atziri's Promise. Check out the flask section for recommended setup. On gear upgrades, you will want a 6L chest, Xoph's Blood and life % jewels. Otherwise, you are in pretty good shape. _____________________________________________________________________________ " At the start of a league, expect the axe to go for 50 to 60 chaos and it will drop to ~3 chaos after 3 weeks. You can start farming Uber lab once you have the axe with any 5L chest. _____________________________________________________________________________ " You are using Meginord belt, switch to a rare belt instead. You did not take Point Blank from the skill tree. You are missing a lot of damage there. Follow the Avatar of Fire skill tree closely and your damage will go up. I see that you are currently level 72, so gaining 18 more levels will greatly improve your life and damage. Consider replacing Carnage Heart with a high life roll rare amulet instead. That will improve your life pool. EDIT: Typo. Last edited by kira1414#3753 on Sep 24, 2017, 10:10:17 AM

" I already have a rare belt that provides 69 amour and 80 life. I will look into replacing the amulet! I forgot to take the point blank skill since forever! Thanks for noticing that! Meant to take it a bit later while leveling but just forgot. Last edited by Trombae#6304 on Sep 24, 2017, 10:11:31 AM

" Yes. You will want Point Blank as it pretty much increases Molten Burst damage by 50%. |

" Which damage do you refer to in hideout? without anything: 62k cyclone, 9k molten burst with permanent buffs (flame golem & HoA): 72,5k cyclone, 10,2k molten burst with permanent buffs + temp buffs from skills (warchief totem + bloodrage): 95k cyclone, 10,7k molten burst 2 days ago i was lucky with 2 mortal hope drops and I tried Uber Atziri for the first time. Felt like it is possible with my stats, but as all say, there is not much room for failure. I often had the problem that I just started to whirl and atziri launched a flameblast and then I didn't make it out of it in time and got one shot. Does enfeeble help on such situations? Because right now I'm still using flammability for everything and I didn't use a curse in the uber atziri fight. I also got my hands on some nice jewels and raised my life up to 6225. Any suggestions how to improve my gear further? Taste of Hate is on my wishlist. Which gems should I try to get with 21/20 oder 20/23? |

Any idea what i should be upgrading in terms of my character, i seem to die to one shots often.
And is xophs blood essential? Last edited by BreadOfExile#6616 on Sep 24, 2017, 3:30:00 PM

" Getting 3 skill points to reach Constitution can't hurt. I also imagine your armor might be a bit low seeing as there is none on belt while both gloves and boots are low. Your jewels should probably have % life as well. Then there is the no life roll on ring while using Sibyl (which is really low life). Meanwhile gloves and belt has mediocre life rolls at best and boots are pretty bad. What is your phys % red and life pool? I followed the guide in terms of HoA and blasphemy supported by enfeeble/flammability which worked well for me. Running enfeeble while leveling for quite some time, especially after obtaining 6L. You are also missing the third life leech passive. Xoph is at least not essential for me yet, I just did the guardians (except mino) for the first time ever (first league playing poe) on the first try without difficulty. I intend to try Shaper without as well, even though I can afford it. |

I'm really not sure where to go from here with gear. I could upgrade my rings to be more ideal, and maybe change the belt out. I just worry about being able to keep resists capped. The armor my Belly gave in the early stages resulted in a massive chunk of physical damage reduction, but now it's under 25% and I'm feeling the burn, particularly trying to clear uber lab for the first time. Last time I had a few darkshrines and was doing really well, then got one shot by Argus.
Is there some specific strategy to do uber lab the first time? Do I need to just level for more passive points? I can handle t10 maps fairly effortlessly (haven't tried higher yet), but uber lab is still proving elusive. Should I just avoid argus and not try to get mechanic keys from Izaro? Is there something with my gear in particular that stands out that I could fix? Thanks in advance for any advice. |

How would this compare to a physical cyclone slayer ? (Either Disfavour or Starforge)
