[1.3 VIDEO GUIDE] Les Bo The Kitchen Blender 2-Handed Double Strike/Vaal Cyclone Build[HC/SC Viable]
Hey man! Just wanted to give you a big shout out for this build. Havent had this much fun in PoE in a long time! Dat feeling when you pull literally 100+ of mobs in an open map and splash them to pieces is really nice!
Anyway, I've been resistant to go blood magic as gems because I havent really needed it (Mana leech on gear) but havent been able to run two auras. I think I've found a way around it tho and its called Alpha's Howl. I think it could be really powerful, just as long as I get enough mana to maintain and not run out when double striking. If mana leech is not enough im thinking about picking up the mana on kill nodes in the southeast corner. I'll get back with the results and if it fails, I'll just have to go BMgem! :) Thanks again! |

" Alpha's Howl is great. As a matter of fact my character is using it right now :) In my experience I still need the blood magic gems but let me know if you come to another conclusion! :) I am glad you are having as much fun as I did with this build! :D Weekly build guides: Youtube.com/LiftingNerdBro Daily live streams: Twitch.tv/LiftingNerdBro Friendly PoE community: Discord.gg/Lifting Last edited by LiftingNerdBro#1842 on Aug 26, 2014, 7:47:04 AM

I have added 4 unique items that will be awesome for this build if you have the currency to get them. They can be found in the bottom of the OP :)

" If I can save up for Belly of the Beast I will probably respec Herbalism to Profane Chemistry. 50% recovery rate and 60% increased flask effect would be seriously strong. |
|
" For sure, those are some very strong clusters. I try to get them on almost any of my characters that dabble in those areas ;D Weekly build guides: Youtube.com/LiftingNerdBro

Hi,
Loving your build so far lvl 55 and owning hard. I have been using Herald of Ash and Ice and I must say it works amazingly well. What are your thoughts on it? You can use it with Grace and Hatred at lvl 17 reduced mana and alphas i think. Last edited by Thuor99#5920 on Aug 27, 2014, 5:54:32 AM

Ice Bite cluster seems to work well with Hatred aura
tested this already? |
|
Great build, but just one question, how do you have enough int to use Hatred if you dont have any on your gear/in your tree?
Edit: I mean whilst leveling, I see you have the +30 int node, but even still, wouldnt that not be enough for hatred? Last edited by xemath#7523 on Aug 27, 2014, 1:56:30 PM

I just hit level 69 with this build and let me tell you how fun it is: Very fun.
I finally have all the recommended gems/links in my gear (Except a 5-link Vaal Cyclone) and I am just stomping maps now. I rolled 2 Granite Flasks of Iron skin which I pop right as I am Vaal Cycloning. I tanked the level 66 Dungeon map Boss (Hits hard) pretty easy. What DPS should I look for on an "Endgame" sword? I don't want to bother 5-linking a sword that won't last me. 430+ dps? |
|
" I think you are right about that. Herald of Ice would be pretty sweet for our build as the shattering damage when cycloning would be a great bonus. If it works for you mate, then by all means keep doing it! :) Weekly build guides: Youtube.com/LiftingNerdBro
