[3.20] Shockwave Cyclone Build (League Starter) | Champion | Forbidden Sanctum | Path of Exile 3.20
Hey guys, here is another league starter build. I also have a slayer version with very similar setup. Just wanted see how champion performs.
Slayer Version: https://youtu.be/uZsTDfwECLg Build Cost - Low Budget: 0-20 div Shockwave: Shockwave Support is a support gem that causes the supported attack skill to release a Shockwave on hit, dealing attack damage to enemies around the enemy. It causes the supported skill to be restricted to staves and maces. Mana: "Channelling Skills have -3 to Total Mana Cost" mod on rings and "#% of Physical Attack Damage Leeched as Mana" mod on a jewel - If you have a body armour with "Socketed Attacks have # to Total Mana Cost" mod you don't need - mana cost on rings and mana leech Upgrades: - Awakened Gems (Melee Physical Damage and Brutality) - Watcher's Eye (Impales you inflict last # additional Hits while using Pride) - Cluster Jewels Large: Feed the Fury / Martial Prowess / Fuel the Fight Medium: Pressure Points / Quick Getaway - Towering Threat / Magnifier Leveling: Start with ground slam and keep playing until level 68 then switch to cyclone - shockwave setup. Leveling gems and trees are in the video. (Use a two-handed axe while leveling because staff nodes are way up there and all crit related.) Recommended weapons for leveling: - Limbsplit (Level 13-33) - Reaper's Pursuit (Level 33-68) PoB: https://pastebin.com/UP43VSqs Build Video: https://youtu.be/rwaW9OuGN3o Bandits: Kill All (Alira is fine too) 3.19 CHANGES: - Flesh and Stone now causes you to take 11–15% less Damage from Attacks from Enemies that aren't nearby while in Sand Stance at gem levels 1–20 (previously 9–11%) - The Reservation Mastery that granted 15% increased Mana Reservation Efficiency of Skills has been removed from the Passive Skill Tree. You may run into some problems after the changes. Problem: Can't use all auras with this setup now because 15% mana reserve mastery is gone. Solution: There are some ways to solve this problem. - Get the 8% increased reservation efficiency node near the "Champion of the Cause" and lower the precision level to 17 or lower. - Use Enlighten support. - Get a helmet enchant with any reserve efficiency. - Annoint Charisma. 3.20 CHANGES: - Curse changes: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3323944#curses (Footage is from 3.17) Gear: Gem Setup: Cyclone - Shockwave - Melee Physical Damage - Increased Critical Damage - Pulverise - Brutality Precision (Lvl 17) / Blood and Sand / Flesh and Stone / Pride / Determination / Blood Rage Vaal Ancestral Warchief - Maim - Multiple Totems - Ancestral Protector Leap Slam - Lifetap - Assassin's Mark - Mark On Hit Vaal Molten Shell (Lvl 10) - Cast when Damage Taken (Lvl 1) / Dread Banner - Arrogance Last edited by wishdropper on Dec 9, 2022, 7:08:00 AM Last bumped on Apr 8, 2023, 9:04:11 AM

Hello, thanks for the guide.
what masters did you choose, thanks | |
Quick Question:
Why is Vaal molten Shell connected with CWDT, it doenst trigger Vaal? | |
" Hey! Why is Molten Shell level 10 and CWDT level 1 ? I'm newbie trying to figure it out. Sorry if so. | |
CWDT lvl has to be equal or less than the gem you are trying to proc. So if the gem if higher than the cwdt gem it wont proc.
| |
for some reason, mark on hit makes assassins mark cost way more mana? had to keep mine at lvl 1.
| |
Hey, do you have a PoB with clusters? Which stuff do you drop for them?
|
|
" Cast while damage taken will trigger the regular molten shell, Vaal you activate yourself when you think your char is about to fall. | |
Pretty decent for start, lacking survability later in T14+ maps. To fix this i used Glorious Vanity to get Divine Flesh keystone (at the cost around 20% dps, in theory fixable with the right seed, depends on luck with finding some) and this single item doubled my elemental dmg sustain after i got chaos resistance high enough.
The most expensive gear are Chest and Watcher`s Eye, 5D each. https://pastebin.com/YbgBNNtx Next target is to get Enlighten to be able run Flesh and Stone aura (+15% dps), Forbidden jewels (+25% dps) and 700+ pdps staff (+20-40% dps). Last edited by Piccaso on Sep 1, 2022, 3:27:04 PM
