[2.0.0] Kaom's Legacy : How to Cyclone - (30C Atziri Build - Indepth Guide for Beginners)

Trio was really hard but that I know it will get easier, and I killed them in the wrong order. Made it to atziri but failed, You are right my damage was a bit to low to kill most of the adds before she got healed so In a few levels that shouldn't be a problem. I also was using the lower level purity of fire, I will have lvl 20 next time. I will wait until closer to 80 but I foresee no problems. Can I ask again about Atziri's Disfavour? you said It's not much dps but it's over 100 more dps, would you not consider it a late game goal along with a really good rare axe?

Overall a very promising first attempt.

Its not a bad axe. It is actually very good. Its just the price you pay for this minimal upgrade is quite much.

5c Kaoms -> 8 ex Disfavour is really hefty for such a "small" upgrade. On the other hand, every upgrade after Kaomss will cost you several Ex, so you can go for Disvaour too, if there are no good rares on the market.

Okay this is likely final set of gear unless I play around with resists a little, took your advice and went with a Rare axe(It just happens when I Jeweled it, it turned out to have the same colors as before)

should be fine for atziri. I changed the order how I beat the trio now. I kill the 2 Melees first in one corner and use the 4 pillars in the room to lure the spikeybitch to me, then enfeeble her an cyclone her down. this mostly works because my dmg output is that high allready.

The guide suggests using leapslam. Leapslam - Vengeance - Curse on Hit - "curse of your choice"

mobility


This Character moves with 50% movementspeed per default, it is fast enough.

Some thoughts on this. I played up to 40 in bloodlines Before i rip'd due to carelessnes

1.)From the patch notes "Cyclone now guarantees a hit on cast"

I wonder if this would mean the first pulse of cyclone always hit? Thus reducing the need for accuracy or resolute technique for MS based cyclone.

2.)Crit builds seems to traditionaly be recomended for fast attack weapons. With a MS based cyclone perhaps this limit could be worked around enabling a hard hitting weapon with high crit to hit many times, usefull in applying a powerfull freeze status.

3.)Herald of ash felt a bit stronger with MS based cyclone

4.)Following the advice using Elreons jewelry to attain a "free" cyclone feels so op it can result in careless playing at lower levels of HC. I will be more carefull next time around.

5.)The use of reduced mana cost nodes felt really smooth when trying MS based cyclone, either way its a very high cost method - until it isn't.

1.)I think its meant that there is always a first pulse, but i might be wrong there.

2.)You can go staves and crit. From my point of view: I can do Uber atziri with non crit and there is currently no need for more damage through crit. (possible, but not needed).

3.)Hitting hard and often does help HoA.

4.) that is the reason I would not play this build on HC. it is immense fun to pop the quicksilver and cyclone into big packs. This will get you killed. On higher end of the dps spectrum, you need to care for ele reflect the most (HoA and Hatred). This style of play hardly fits into HC and makes you feel invinsible, when in fact you are not.

5.) I am working on a way to free up the BM gem at high levels, needs some investment into 20/20 gems and crafted elreon rings though.

Just a question on the mechanics, do I have to repeatedly right click? Can I just hold down the right mouse button close to my character?

With a quicksilver flask, your cyclone will look like you have a hammer from smash brothers
