However, I wouldn't recommend dropping Fortify, as you did in your POB. I mean, you're trading survivability for damage, but our damage is already pretty high; we could use some survivability, however.

The life increase itself isn't worth if you don't keep Fortify. With 5k life, having Fortify (20% less damage taken from hits) can take the same amount of damage as a 6250 life without Fortify. It's a huge boost to survivability, and it should always be on the build.

This is entirely optional and doesn't affect the amount of life at all.

I mean, even if you increase your life to 6k, if you take a 6250 hit without Fortify reduction you'll die; if you have 5300 life and Fortify, you don't. :)

Build looks fun, wanna transition from my current build to it(gonna do a full reset). But i'm having trouble with what exactly should i buy for this build. I have 50(maybe 60) ex to spare, anyone have suggestions?

- 2x 14% attack speed Cospri
- 1x Frozen Trail with corrupted blood immunity
- one source of fire leech (some of them are listed on the guide)
- 1x Effigon or Xoph's Blood
- boots or belt with 14% cooldown recovery speed (you can also buy a lower value and divine it, as minimum range is 10-15)

Other pieces aren't so specific, so I recommend you to check the gear section of the guide for some suggested affixes. :)

Is it ok to have 1 13% APS cospri? I plan on transitioning to his build (from ice nova).

Sure! 14% only easies your way to the APS cap, but any value is actually ok. :)

Gotcha, would it be hard to to get 15 aps w/o the 15% cyc speed on helm enchant?
That's the biggest factor that's hindering me from transitioning right now.

Also can you please make a new video? :D Maybe killing sirus? This is only my second league and the first time I quit on the first and a half months, so I'd say I'm fairly new. So I want to see how the build fares in the end game.

Sirus is all about surviving he melts faster than some really juiced metamorphs. If you wanna farm him deathless it's not the best build. If you don't mind dieng accidentally it will do fine You can check some of my vids for what kind of dps is possible, before switching to HH https://youtu.be/6aaay-202qw .

I see, is the APS requirement achievable w/o the 15% cyc speed on helm?

Yes, it is. It's a little bit harder to achieve, though, but some extra stuff (like Onslaught or attack speed affixes on jewels) can help you achieve it.

This build is really strong, i have gotten through most of the metamorph content with it and even killed shaper for the first time and it was deathless. Uber Elder is next on my list. But i must say this build is not cheap and honestly i struggled a lot until i got the correct amulet because the survivability isn't that great until you do get it. It's like going from a no leech cyclone build to having vaal pact, that's how impactful the necklace with .5 fire damage leeched is.

My gear and i still have some minmaxing to do like getting cyclone helmet enchant.



Thanks for the guide i've enjoy the hell out of this build.

Can I use this armor? or better sell and craft a new
