Hey what i should change in my eq to raise my dps cyclone

could get wepon ele and att speed on your rings, weapon ele and added physical on your amulet

Where you go down from the marauder start you take you take a cluster of two handed damage nodes while you're dual wielding.
Instead you can go down through one handed damage/attack speed nodes, why in earth would you go your way??

My take on the Blender:

1. Grab new juicy life nodes and Diamond Skin in Marauder Area. Then head across to RT picking up the endurance charge and life leech along the way. You can also get Strongarm and Born to Fight for 5 points of investment (+70% damage!)

2. The nerf on scion wheel was significant. Avoid the trap of feeling like you meed to go through the Scion Life Wheel; You might as well go for the 'Life and Armour' nodes in the Marauder tree which provide extra armour. You will get HP from Marauder and Ranger areas already, and damage from DW nodes.

3. By the Blade node (and wheel) is OP. Get it.

4. Obtain the three 24% dual wielding nodes now closely located south of Duelist start for awesome damage boost.

5. When entering the Ranger Area, I chose to spend 4 extra points, but grab 28% extra life and go for the more efficient 2x4%IAS nodes (instead of the 3x3%IAS ones).

6. The rest is similar to original build.

I traded out berserking and the 15% dmg node for by the blade approaching from warrior's blood. Gained life and lost very little damage and dropped some attack speed. I think it's an improvement.

updated 108 point tree here:



A non weapon specific tree would swap out by the blade for the aforementioned nodes.

I have only 4l items. I run actually double aura and cyclone with blood magic and life gain on hit. Can you suggest me most proper gem for 4th socket?

hey guys I made some mods to the skill tree, added the 18% atk speed back.

just in raw numbers calculations wise it gives the most HP (+300 HP @ char lvl 90) and Armour (+80 Armour @ char lvl 90)

In my opinion it's better to grab the other life mini wheel over sentinel/berserking if you're going to take by the blade. That said, I've tanked palace dominus' touch of god with far less life than I'm going to end up with on my tree and I might very well be overdoing it on life. Nice tree.

That said, I don't think that sentinel is needed at all. I think that grabbing the two armor keystones is plenty, especially given that there's a 16% armor node on the way to one of them. From that point, the choice is grabbing the life mini wheel or taking 5 points worth of other stuff. I take the life. I definitely think that by the blade is better than any other 4 point investment that could be made.
