- Is there a attack speed (soft)cap when using this build or its always the best stat to aim for jewels after %max life?
- never used vaal pact before, are we still using blood rage when picking up vaal pact?
I think ill get the full 4% life lost per second from blood rage buff, i think its a big downside in case of survivibilty or not?

There is no softcap. Attack speed will be the stat right after life on jewels.

If you use Vaal Pact and you run Slayer ascendancy, you should be able to handle Blood Rage degen.

However, if you run the build as Champion and you picked Vaal Pact, you have to drop Blood Rage.

Thanks for this awesome build! I've been playing around with the new Focus mods (Shock on ring and 30%AS on gloves) and i really enjoy it! Got any suggestions on what to upgrade next? Thx!

Tombfist with 2 abyssal sockets will be the next upgrade for you. :)

Watcher's Eye with "Gain # physical % as extra fire when affected by Anger" is another upgrade.

Taste of Hate will give you more damage and survivability too.

Hey made this build since 3 days and it's amazing at uber lab. Question, what is the new setup to breeze through lab rooms, since Brightbeak/ 3 green socket unique sword isn't possible anymore?

Glad you are enjoying the build.

Besides Brightbeak setup, Queen of the Forest is another possible approach for breezing through lab rooms. You will need Grace + Jade flask with increased evasion % and invest in evasion gears in order to switch to that.

I'm fairly new to the game. I ran your chieftain version of this build last season as my first character ever. I'm really enjoying the champion EO version right now. I killed my first solo red elder last night and it was deathless. I'm looking to move into farming uber elder. My POB dps is ~240k which seems really low for uber elder (unless I didn't set POB up correctly). I can't really afford GG opal rings or 4ex enchanted devoto's right now, but I'm currently saving up for those and a watcher's eye. Would you recommend RT slayer or EO champion for an uber elder farmer? I realize there are WAY better builds out there for that, but I REALLY enjoy this playstyle.

Also, does everything look good so far with my gear/gems links? It's fairly budget outside of Bronn/Xoph. I was fortunate enough to get some expensive div cards and a watcher's eye to fund the build so far.




Thanks for the build! Much appreciated!!!!

So I'm curious because I'm at the point where I can either get a six-link Starforge or a xoph's heart. Between this build and ahfak's crimson cyclone(starforge variant), which would scale harder with upper tier gear? I started out with this since Ngamahu's were only like 3 c, but now I've got a couple exalts to my name, so I'm wondering which is going to have an easier time with the endgame.

Im in the same boat, 3,5 exalts in the bank and unsure if i should go for a xophs or 6L starforge + kaoms heart.
Starforge has more boss damage and alot more health due to 100 frommstarforge and 500 from kaoms.
On the other way its clearspeed for maps is alot slower.
I think im going to complete my atlas until t14 and after geting 7-8 ex ill mind again if i switch.

Quick Question but what is the reason we don't click on "Iron Reflexes" in our tree? I did it (out of curiosity) and felt much tankier but I could be crazy.

Thanks!

Which armor would be best for uber lab farming?

The slayer version with consecrated path is kinda strange to me..

Why pick avatar of fire if we use ngamahu's for 50% conversion + nattural skill conversion?

Can you review your pob tree for slayer without xophs or do a real consecrated path tree?

Hi guys,
I noticed the enormous difficulty of the builds in the maps with elemental damage reflection, is there anything that can be done or should we simply skip it?

This is one of the best guides I've ever seen. I know Cyclone and melee, in general, is rather tough in Syndicate at the moment, but this is the first guide I've ever used and it spoiled me. Nothing else compares to your depth, thoughtfulness, and explanation.

That being said I had a few questions. Is there any way to make getting the Endurance charges easier, or more automatic? As it stands now, I'm having to make sure my Blood Rage stays active, and have to stop spinning in or near a pack to cast Enduring Cry for the charges. When doing all this, I more often than not forget (or don't have time, or are moving to fast) to even cast my totem.

Secondly, since the Vaal skill gem changes, have you considered adding a part about Vaal cyclone in the build? I don't mean changing the build completely, but it might be worth adding it in as an option. The 23% quality alone is worth it, but I pop Soul Catcher flask then Vaal Cyclone on a boss and it kills just about everything before they can even get into their phases. It's very strong.

Thank you and keep up the great work.

He answered this question, you just failed to read thoroughly.

Either put on Sybll's Lament ring, and choose the element reflect pantheon or skip the map.
