[3.17] For Slayer / Champion - Ngamahu Cyclone / Consecrated Path / Tectonic Slam

"

Bronn's Lithe is still the best for pure damage. It gives like 80k+ dps in PoB for me, however, only if you get the g - b - b - r - r - r off colors which can be a real pain in the ass. As OP stated in a previous post, the best gem setup damage-wise is Cyclone - Ele Focus - Conc Effect/Aoe - Ele Damage w/ Attacks - Melee Phys - Added Fire. It is really hard to achieve this on a Bronn's, especially early league when you're starving for currency. The 2nd most damage output you can reach is either Added Fire or Melee Phys replaced with Combustion. This color combination is easier to achieve, however this setup kinda negates the point of getting Bronn's, as getting as much damage as possible. With this combination, I only got 50k more effective dps in PoB, and this is the point when Carcass comes into play, as you can reach almost the same amount of damage with the most powerful gem setup (+Carcass) as with Bronn's combined with the 2nd most powerful gem setup (Combustion instead of Added Fire). Additionally, if you go Carcass you get life, resist, and more AoE. Personally, I'm gonna go with it as it seems to be the more well-rounded option out of the two.

tl;dr: If you have money go for Bronn's, but only with the g - b - b - r - r - r colour combo. Otherwise, go for Carcass as it gives damage, AoE, life, resist, and you don't have to spend currency on getting 5-off colours which can be a huge sink early league.

Hey guys.

I have a question. If my friend will be play for aurabot, which auras will be good for Slayer Ngamahu Cyclone?
It's "Anger" 100%, maybe "Determination" for more survival, "Haste" ofc, without Vitality because Vaal Pact. So which more auras can be good for this build? Hatred i think not good, because we are have all nods for fire damage, fire penetration and etc ... so cold damage from Hatred aura - useless or not?
Friend will be play for aurabot first time, so he is don't know too :D

Hatred is still good as 50% of the cold damage will be converted to fire and it still give more damage than Anger (unless you have Watcher's Eye that gives you extra fire damage from Anger). Flammability, Haste, purities are all good auras to run.

I noticed on my Standard Slayer that it is being offered a one time passive reset. Are there enough changes that would warrant doing a passive reset?

You don't have to reset your skill tree since there are no changes to it.

However, if you want to try out EO skill tree with Champion, the passive reset will be useful.

NOTE: You always get a new skill tree reset when a new league starts.
