[2.1] "Cyclonus" Crit Bino Cyclone by fiqst

In that case a Doryani's catalyst is perfect with its decent physical and ele damage. Otherwise, any good pdps 1h is good.

What about the bandits?

Sorry, forgot to include bandits in the guide. Fixed now.

Hi, i am leveling with this build now. What level do you suggest to use cyclone. I am lvl 28 and it seems cyclone is just slow at killing things . Can you suggest an alternative leveling method till i can use cyclone as my primary skill?
Also cyclone drains my mana very fast. How do you handle this mana situation?
I am a new player and dont have any currency to afford your end game items. Can i play this build effectively with only rares

you can try levelling with a dual rare claws for the leech/life gain on hit bonuses.

as for the secund question.. i realy dont think you can sustain the mana cost of cyclone with tho rare weapons.....

i played a looong time a CI cyclone build and i can tell you that a 6 link cyclone costs a lot of mana (even with over 1k mana and a a lot of mana regen/mana leech)

i finaly managed to get my cyclonus reave duelist at level 85 and it seems so good running whirling blades with coc+immortal call..

i mean it realy feels like you are immune to physical 99 percent of the time :D

Can you solo uber atziri with this new patch?

Cyclone works perfectly fine with rare weapons, just put in a blood magic gem.

I've been noticing a lot that HoA+burning damage with Bino's dot feels like overkill, and that I feel like I could use some more hp in higher level maps. I'm gonna test how the aoe feels fine without burn damage, if its still good I'll replace it with reduced mana and try one or both of the below trees.




Or just grab more out of the scion life wheel.

Cyclone is very mana intensive, its best to use a blood magic gem if you're using rare weapons and Maligaro's.

But you shouldn't restrict yourself with cyclone, the tree is flexible enough that you can basically choose any skill and any 1h weapons. I find Static Strike is great for leveling up.

I have never tried Uber. I don't feel the need to use my currency on the one map.
After seeing uber runs from ZMA and litesabr, I can guess that the build can overcome Uber if i employ the usual tactics that they employ.

Cyclone has AoE so HoA can be dropped and the mana reservation nodes can be refunded. But in my opinion, the HoA burn covers a wide area and i find i don't need to backtrack to kill a single stray mob as often as without HoA.

If the new setup works for you please post your results and i'll add your build to the community builds.
