Spoiler
6L - Frenzy, melee splash, melee physical damage on full life, multistrike, power charge on crit, increased critical damage 4L- Flicker + anything (DEFENSIVE MECHANIC -see videos for explanation-) 4L- Enduring cry, faster casting, increased area of effect, blood rage 4L- Discharge, lightning penetration, cold penetration, fire penetration. 3L- Reduced mana, clarity, discipline 3L- Reduced mana, Hatred, enfeeble Skill Tree Gear (I LINKED SOME OF MINE FOR EXAMPLE PURPOSES)
Spoiler
Boots: Rainbow strides are great on this build. Due to our high block chance the natural spell block they give is a great addition to our build, they also have the move speed, mana, and all resist that we need. Gloves: your going to want three things here; Increased Attack Speed, high Energy Shield, and Accuracy. extra Mana would be a bonus. Belt: you'll want Armor and Energy shield here, also if your low on resists you can use the belt spots for remainder. Helm: Energy Shield and Accuracy (Mana and Resists are optional but helpful as needed) Amulet: Eye of Chayula Rings: Accuracy, Regen, Energy Shield, Mana if needed, stats if needed(str). Ring 2: THIS NEEDS TO BE A DRAM FRAG.... ALL CYCLONE BUILDS NEED A DREAM FRAG..... FREEZE IS THE BANE OF ANY CYCLONE BUILD, NOT JUST THIS ONE!!!! Shield: Any type here but generally Energy Shield hybrid, preferably Energy Shield and Armor. I talk about this in depth in the videos, watch videos for full explanation. Claw: Physical ONLY claw (Accuracy and Crit nice here) Chest: Big Energy Shield + 6L Res if needed. (Can run hybrid Energy Shield + (Armor or Evasion) watch video for full details) FAQ FROM OTHER BUILD REGARDING SAME MECHANICS FAQ

Spoiler
The build isn't that gear dependent, Like every other build the more links you have the stronger your skill are and the better gear you get the stronger you end up being. Like every build in path of exile it scales with better gear. to give you a breakdown as what I payed for my gear as a reference point. Dream frag 1.5 ex, amulet 5 gcp, and ring 2 chaos. Crafted myself with 2 chaos. traded a glove worth 1 ex and linked em myself Crafted myself 3ex (just upgraded from my original post which was a belt i was running for a long time and i bought for 1 alch, buying a belt is cheap since u only need to focus on your armor + es (res only if needed).) Claw 6ex (one of the best phys claws on the server, the equiv in an axe or sword would be 20 exalt or more, so this is very very cheap) you guys can find something end game for <1ex if your okay with not having the best since claws are dirt cheap. Chest I got 6L'd for 12ex and chaosed myself to 700es. I then upgraded to this chest for 35 exalts Shield cost me 11 ex + a ring I traded. Again this is a GG piece and I have the money for it.... you guys can get a shield that is 600/300 or maybe 500/400 for a reasonable amount <1ex, you don't have to spent 15+ exalt like I did to make this work, more money doesn't equal more block chance, my advice is to craft a white archon shield, hit it up with 15-20 chaos and take an ok roll when it comes. Total cost for your guys entire build not having to buy end game GG stuff should be 2ex for rings and ammy(includes 1.5ex for a dream frag). 6gcp on a claw (can hit 300 dps+ with 6 gcp, might be mixed damage but fine till u can buy GG) 10-20 chaos crafting a shield, 2-3 regals + alterations for a helm or again 10-20 chaos, boots u can get rainbow strides for 1 ex and link em yourself, chest u can buy a 5L for 3-5gcp. and gloves u can have for a few chaos. If you guys can't afford this then you should just make your own "unique budget" build based around the items you find because this is about as cheap as it comes. Huaojozu wrote: One question, do you level Clarity?
Spoiler
Clarity should be leveled based on your mana regen rate, level as you need it. I use to run a lvl 18 clarity now I'm down to runniing a lvl 9 clarity. Base it on your needs, and having a few clarity gems leveled in your stash at various levels is never a bad thing.
tundral wrote: What about Lightning Thorns?
Spoiler
Oh sorry about that, well lightning thorns is something that effects every class. Recently there waqs a patch that changed lightning thorns to effect all damage types and not just physical, now lightning thorns is triggered off all damage types including elemental, spell, and physical.
I don't think there is one real counter to lightning thorns as it is a tough mechanic to deal with no matter which class you are. You are correct in saying hitting more often owuld in fact trigger the effect so yes in a way it is a tough mechanic for this class but that is an impact statement....all classes have a varying degree of difficulty with lightning thorns now. Some classes and builds will have an easier time with this (for example marauder has the reduced crit damage and maximum to all resists which would help with this, coupled with purity lightning thorns can be very manageable) this is the best case scenario and most effective way in the game to deal with it, with that being said mauarders still die to the dreaded thorns. The best thing any class no matter the skill nodes, skill types, life pools, and other factors is to just be aware of lightning thorns and deal with it slowly, no class will GG lightning thorns and complete be able to ignore it unless there a totem build. To answer your question yes I have tested it vs lightning thorns, my answer is to just be aware of it and don't go nuts vs it, the build has about 10 open spots for skill gems, you can equip a single target skill of any type to deal with this one situation and even use purity to edge off the damage a little more as there is more then enough mana to on this build to run (1, 40% aura) as well as the auras I have listed, I can confirm this as I do it while still maintaining unlimited mana cast.

Firstly, my character is HenryHill. In your video you opened a webpage, i don't think that is me.
I think I have the right to defend myself against what you said as a lot of what you said was completely lies and made up to make me look worse. To be fair, i was being closed minded while talking to you, not because i was jealous of your build, but because I just don't think its as strong as what you make it out to be. Ill share the main points that annoyed me when i was talking to you -I never said Dota 2 sucks, I was just saying i think LoL is more balanced. -I never once brought up SC2 as I've never played it. -Your disrespect to other players 2013/05/11 05:45:56 57470440 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] %ElmoLiftsBro: im sure u can respect that, I am here to make top tier builds. I have no desire to make make meh builds, for shitty players, who can't find the means to get decent gear. I also have 0 respect for dumb players who can't get rich in a video game. Btw that is not all you said, you said a lot more about your 'so called fans that you gladly help' -You being way too conceited, note i didn't ask about any of this, he just decided to tell me because he thinks this will make his build better 2013/05/03 02:07:51 40150086 1b0 [INFO Client 5920] @ElmosMyBFF: but i'm a tier 1 player form other platforms 2013/05/03 02:07:57 40155749 1b0 [INFO Client 5920] @ElmosMyBFF: was a comp HoN and dota 2 player 2013/05/03 02:08:00 40158292 1b0 [INFO Client 5920] @ElmosMyBFF: sc2 masters 2013/05/11 05:17:26 55760544 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] %ElmoLiftsBro: i was a pro sc2 hon and dota 2 player hehe 2013/05/11 05:50:15 57729792 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] %ElmoLiftsBro: i have a house 2013/05/11 05:50:19 57733193 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] %ElmoLiftsBro: an ivy league education 2013/05/11 05:48:54 57648656 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] %ElmoLiftsBro: i have 0 intent to become "famous" in poe 2013/05/11 05:48:57 57651807 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] %ElmoLiftsBro: it happened 2013/05/11 05:49:03 57657095 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] %ElmoLiftsBro: i am famous now in poe 2013/05/11 05:49:06 57660761 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] %ElmoLiftsBro: i could care less -Academy of Arts University is not in the Ivy League -You said you were being polite? I did not once say anything bad about your build nor did i say anything about your life. I just said its not the Ivy League. 2013/05/11 06:15:32 59246075 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] @ElmoLiftsBro: dude u go to austrailian school 2013/05/11 06:15:34 59247869 1b1 [INFO Client 5680] @ElmoLiftsBro: thats sad Basically to anyone that wants to try this build, it won't work unless you have like 80-100 exalts to spend. And what you see in the video is as good as it gets. And I'm sure many people can back me up with the fact that Mr Elmo here is a very egotistical man. - Edited due to it being slightly off topic. - Mike Ign: Kiaraa, Kionn , Nalaa Kiaraa Cyclone (2.0): https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1330927 Kionn Wander (1.2): http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1037723 (OUTDATED) Shop: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1315055 Last edited by Support#0000 on May 11, 2013, 4:18:02 AM
