[2.3] Shakk's Cyclone Build. A story about a man and his fists.

I run out of sockets because in my helm I run Reckoning with LL + MPD + LGOH. Deal alot dmg and heal also alot. And in my shield I use CWDT + Tempest Shield + Temporal Chains. So i cant really use Shield charge atm, was thinking about replacing reckoning but with so high block chance seems not that good idea.

If anything remove melee physical damage from reckoning, I don't run it linked to that since it already does silly high damage.
Hey ShakkaFL, for some reason I can't see the tooltips of your jewels, so could you please paste what jewels are you using atm.

I linked them in the original post, I use Warlords Reach, which is a quest reward from cruel act 2 I believe. Then I use a rare jewel with damage and life leech. For third jewel you want either Martial Artistry (+aoe range) or a resistance/stat jewel if you're missing some.

Depends, I'd say armor 3 aura with rampart if you play on HC, 3 aura no rampart on SC leagues.
Finally got abyssus for my fb cycloner. Feels so good now, boosted my dps by 16k :p

Also started using your shield charge setup with endurance charges on stun. This work really well.
Hi guys,

Thanks Shakka for sharing your build.

Have a few questions if you don't mind.

Currently playing as a Marauder (lvl 89) and would like to give this build a try. I'm assuming from the tree that this build would be possible for this class. Could you please tell me why you've chosen Duelist over Marauder - what are the benefits?

Also, more importantly, how well does this build perform in the Warbands league? I've noticed so many of the items have been nerfed e.g. max 800% on facebreakers, reduced damage on Meginord's Girdle, ele resistance + block chance drastically reduced on Saffell's Frame.

I apologise if some of these points have already been covered in earlier posts. Looked through a few pages and couldn't find much.

Many thanks.

Yes of course, my tree takes the marauder starting nodes (both of them), so it works just as well as Marauder. As for why I chose Duelist? well.. I had a lot of Marauder characters, and no Duelist, and that's pretty much it, no real benefits besides that 1 attack speed node.

As for Warbands, I've been getting a lot of feedback from players that the build is performing quite well, I don't have a new Meginord's to test but with a 774% Facebreaker I managed to break the 100k dps mark.
Saffel Frame nerf should no matter, after all it's just your alternate shield, you'll still wear your main shield (eva or armor) 95% of the time.
