[1.3.0] La_Immortelles Cyclone Marauder (All bosses viable, easy Atziri, Videos, 3ex Budget Variant)
Welcome to my Cyclone Marauder Guide.
This RT Cyclone Marauder has a high focus on attack range, with the target to kill as many mobs as possible while cycloning through them. There is no need to run back and kill any mobs. Kill all trash/rare/magic mobs the first "passthrough". As addition this build uses a Leap Slam - Curse on Hit setup with Warlords Mark to get some mobility and defense. Second defensive utility is a dual Cast when Damage taken setup. I have never played a character in Path of Exile, that was so strong, stable and fun to play as this big guy here. :) tl;dr Fun to play character (oldschool, badass Marauder), with insane damage, fast clearspeed and very good defense.

Items
Please consider the stat requirements for gems at LVL 20: Int: 108 Dex: 151 Try to get as much stats on gear as possible, so you don't have to spent points in tree. Weapon: Atziri's Disfavour (at least 5L) This weapon has high range and a good damage. Perfect for this build! Alternative: Any high physical 2H axe. Helmet: Devoto's Devotion Get as much chaos res/armor as possible. Chest: Carcass Jack (5L) High Life is preferred. Evasion/Energyshield is not so important. Alternative: Belly of the Beast. Gives ~600 life and nice armor, but lose Area of Effect and Area Damage. Ring 1: Mings Heart Look out for high Chaos Resistance. Ring 2: Rare Ring with: life = res > flat phys > ias Amu: Rare with: missing stats = res = life > flat phys = ias Belt: Rare Belt with: life = res > weapon elemental damage > armour Alternative: Doryani's Invitation Boots: Rares with: Movement Speed > Life = Resistance > Chaos Res Gloves: Rares with: res = life > missing stats > ias = flat phys All together (ordered acc. to priorities): Cap resistances Get high life Get high chaos resistance Get movement speed Get as much stats from gear!

Atziri Tips
Not that hard with this bad boy. I just swapped my helmet (including gems) and used a Topaz and a Ruby Flask.
Switched items: If your damage is too low to nuke bosses, just switch increased area of effect gem to physical to lightning gem
Map Mods
Elemental Reflect: Deactivate Hatred and Herald of Ash. Use instead Grace or Determination
Physical Reflect: Switch Melee Physical Damage -> Weapon Elemental Damage and IncrAoe/ConcEff -> Physical to Lightning (Rares with Reflect, in non reflect maps, are no problem at. Just use Atziri Flask and nuke them). Bloodmagic: Deactivate all Auras and switch Bloodmagic -> Added Fire Half Reg/No Reg/Temporal Chains: Annoying but playable without any changes. Other mods are easy to play, no changes needed. Just remember to use the resistnace flask according to map boss. :)
Low Budget Variant
Video: 73 Dark Forest with 9k dps I have recorded this video with a 4L Carcass Jack (removed my Curse on Hit Gem) and this beauty: Linked Gems: Cyclone-Increased Area of Effect-Concentrated Effect-Bloodmagic Kaom's Primacy is way stronger. But you see, maps are also with much lower dps possible. Get a 4/5 Link Kaom's Primacy, and a 4L Carcass Jack. Rest of the items to cap resistances, get life and some dex/int stats. Get the missings stats from the tree. There are several dex/int nodes to take. Estimated cost: Kaom's Primacy 4L: 1 chaos Carcass Jack 4L: 2 chaos Mings Heart: 2ex Devoto's Devotion: 10 chaos Rare Ring: 5 chaos Amu: 5 chaos Belt: 3 chaos Boots: 3 chaos Gloves: 3 chaos --------------------- Sum: 3ex
Credits
This Character started as Cyclone Marauder based on Vincendra's Guide (Kaoms Legacy : How to Cyclone).
I want to THANK him for the ideas and his guide. Without him I wouldn't have started a Cyclone Marauder! So basically this is just a variant of his guide, with some changes to tree, gear and gems. Thanks for reading! Feel free to leave a comment and discuss about the build. IGN: LaImmortelle, HeavyMetalDisco Shop: 606890 Last edited by nexxx85#2379 on Feb 2, 2015, 10:56:40 AM

I have not followed this guide at 100% but following the concept I did something quite similar. I don't have superior weaponry (high DPS) but nevertheless I am very happy with the performance. These are the two fundamental parts of my character:
The pendant to steal life and not have scares. Since I decided to use it, sustainability is greatly increased without using potions. I'm still at the stage of testing in low-level maps, but everything looks good (and mostly fun). Thank you very much. PS: I'm running Hatred, Herald of Ash, Herald of Thunder and Herald of Ice XD Bethesda is known for having good ideas and terrible realization of them. GGG is a Bethesda subsidiary or what?

" Thanks for your feedback. I think the reduced life of Carnage Heart is way too high. Why dont you use Bloodrage? A bad Mings Heart is not to expensive and is enough to get enough chaos resistance to manage chaos dot of ring. Second thing is, please dont use CoH and Curse in your 6L :P Link it with Leapslam-CoH-Curse :) You will get an amazing Damageboost if you link incr area and conc area gems instead. " Thanks! :) IGN: LaImmortelle, HeavyMetalDisco

Would like to try this build, could you post some leveling trees or explain what areas you would go to first? Thanks :)
Edit: Also, how does this do with map mods? What map mods should you avoid? Last edited by Austy#4446 on Jan 29, 2015, 7:45:23 PM
