FACEBREAKER 2.0 **Counter Skills are Broken** (Patch 1.3)

First of all, thanks for this amazing build. It was my 1st toon on PoE, and I'm still having fun playing it at lvl 91. In the meantime I played a SRS summoner lvl 72, I like it, but I still prefer my facebreaker for the killing speed/tanky/fun build.

Here is my current gear :


Cyclone with Onslaught/Blood Rage/Endurance4/Frenzy3/Atziri's Promise :

Offensive stats with Onslaught/Blood Rage/Endurance4/Frenzy3/Atziri's Promise :

Defensive stats with Onslaught/Blood Rage/Endurance4/Frenzy3/Rumi's Concoction :

Misc :

Skills :


I have here +143% increased rarity of items dropped by monsters I kill with cyclone. If I would replace item rarity on my chest by added fire damage, and the Andvius ring by a 9-15 physical damage ring, Cyclone DPS would be near 50k.

I'm still farming to buy a +1 Endurance belt then I don't know what else I could improve :)

So what would BiS gear look like then?

Vengeance doesn't work with FBs... only with a melee weapon. (unless i'm missing something) breaking the build

Edit: Nvm just read the latest pages, everyone knows and it not a big deal.

Attack skills. They now have a multiplicative damage bonus (rather than increased physical damage) as they level up.

Anyone know how this will affect our build?

Looks like a cool idea. I've got a nice pair of legacy facebreakers so I'm rolling a marauder. I will be using Infernal blow as my main attack skill, 2 counter attacks in a 4L, Auras: Hatred, Herald of Ash. Curse: Warlord's mark for endurance charge generation + immortal call on CwDT

Loving this build so far at level 30.....however I was wondering what path of progression you took on the tree as far as leveling goes.......I had to take the plus 30 dex node on the way to RT in order to use some of the gems early. so should I head into Templar or duelist area first? Thanks! (BTW, nice gear!)

i managed to use the riposte gem with eguipping some heavy dex rings and amulet so save up them rings and amulets u get :D

Hi, I'll be giving this build a try, mainly because my Facebreaker was the very first unique item I got to drop and I've always wanted to give them some use. I mean Unarmed+Extra Gore? Sweet!

But, I was wondering, could this build be endgame viable with non legacy FB's? Mine's 697%

Cheers.

how does vengeance work without a weapon?
