Yeah, works flawless,
Cyclone description doesnt exclude few types of weapons, so I guess you can do that with all 1h/2h MELEE weapons.

Still looking for some information about my build, what to aim etc.

As soon as you activate Cyclone Withering Step Phasing dissapears. The idea is to Cyclone until you get Spirit Offering for 20 secs. Then apply Withering step , use Quicksilver flask and run thru the mobs watching them being massacred by your minions thanks to the massive debuffs Withering gives and you are Elusive too. When your minions are in a hard boss use Cyclone to regen ES but Withering Touch applies Withering too.

Phase Run or Flame Dash don't give us any offensive skill. Withering does. A lot.

Let's sum up this build and my journey as I completed this league doing 36/40.

I started ice shot deadeye. Having 15 ex stuff I was unable to kill high tier metamorphs sometimes with particular mods and it was not rare case (really, lack of damage). This build was a game changer for me (ice shot sucks while bossing, which is important this league), but it's not as ideal as described, because of nerfs that really hurt. Bossing with it is really convenient, you just need to stay in some distance from target for your zombies to attack and dodge stuff, damage is "decent+". Mapping hurts a bit, as I used to play high MS/clear speed builds like tornado shot (tanky impale TS/barrage champion always in my heart [*]), would rate 6/10.

Things I killed solo:
- Shaper (deathless)
- Elder (deathless)
- Uber Elder (2 deaths cuz I sukk)
- Sirus (atlas level 4, 3 deaths, vortex between phases is something I can't do properly, the fight itself is pretty easy)
- Chayula (deathless)

I did not kill Mastermind in area of level 83, just because I didn't have enough Jun missions remaining to spawn the encounter.

As you can notice I stacked chaos res on my jewelry. Why? It greatly increases survivability in both Al-zhmeimer and Sirus fights (in the second case chaos vortexes did a lot less damage, but were still deadly AF, so don't try to jump right in the middle). If you feel like vortex phase is easy, chaos res also might be useful in last Sirus phase when he shoots deadly beam (screaming "Die!"). You will most likely be dead anyway when hit, but sometimes may be lucky.

To sum up - I'm not super happy with this build, it has some shortcomings (again - due to nerfs, didn't play it before to compare) at least in moderate budget. Survivability with 11k HP/ES is good, additionally has some damage reduction and damage avoidance layers to boost it. Needed to tweak tree a little for zombies to survive more, but rarely died anyway only in particular encounters. I felt like zombie damage is too low, so I went skelly setup in chest, then it was fine. Mapping is average+, additional downside is equipment swap when you gotta go fast.

My score: 7.5/10
