We really don't benefit from using Tinctures do we? They only proc on weapon hits.


Indeed, they do nothing for spells.

You're right. Just tried it out and it definitely procs. So, does this mean that the one that has Culling Strike could save us a slot?

Is there something else than Culling Strike that's worth it, since we don't scale attack damage? Most of the things I've seen would be useless with CwC Cyclone.
There's one that has 5% cold penetration and item rarity

Won't work. I'm pretty sure it would be giving cold pen to Cyclone damage only and item rarity to mobs killed by Cyclone, which never happens.

From the wiki : "The stats from Tinctures are not local to the weapon, they are just restricted to only applying to weapon attacks."
"Gearing Guide (3.22)"

We need a gearing guide for 3.23.
Body: "45+ Int, 300+ ES and 1200+ Evasion".
So, it has to be Int-Dex body armour.

On the other hand, it has to be colored as follows:
2 red, 4 blue and 0 (zero) green sockets.

It is very hard to color an (at least partly) dexterity based chest to have zero green sockets. Even harder to color a strength-NOTbased chest to have 2 red sockets. It is too costly. It is a chromatic-orb hog (sinker).

Original post : Buy a fractured, five-links, six-socket armour with the right colors and craft from there. It's going to be much, much easier. Trying to color afterwards costs an average of 2000 Chromatics. You can also just buy a well-rolled armour with the right sockets and craft %attributes.

EDIT : This is not accurate. See the follow-up post on the next page.

Not much changed, to be honest. It's the same, except for the new ascendancies.

EDIT : And the high-end amulet.
