Doeboy™ 👊 #1 Cast On Cyclone Discharge HP/Dodge or CI

:^)

Thanks for this tool. That dam calc says I only do like 63K DPS - How does waynetrain claim 4 million DPS? Similar build should not be so different. Maybe I'm not using it correctly.

Hey! Love the build. and your guide is one of the most detailed guide I have seen yet so thanks for that.

But I have 1 question..



Recently purchased this dagger, Im sumwhat new to this game and I got this for 2ex because the guy I was buying it said that was a really good deal.. but im newb so I kinda had to trust him! lol

Anyway is this a dagger that I want for the build? was it worth the currency?

You know, build true power comes from cyclone hiting multiple targets at the same time. It's possible to go over 1 mil dps if u hit enough targets in one cyclone roll within single "attacks per second" period of time. There's a line in calculator with number of targets, its set default to 2. Increase that and see how it skyrockets your dps. More targets, more hits, more procs, more charges, mores casts, more DPS. Remember also that this tool counts everyting as average. It wont show you max possible DMG with all charges up, with crit damage kicking in etc. It shows average over time DPS not peak DPS. Its not a tool that shows you how much DMG you CAN do it rather shows you what DMG on average you can count on. And having that in mind, you can adjust your gear and passives.

I've also updated both dropbox and googledocs files because I didn't include cyclone base mechanics in the previous calc version, wiki says:

"

Cyclone spins at your attack speed and deals area of effect damage twice per spin.

So base number of hits is double the aps. Now its included in calculator. I've also added maximum allowed number of charges, so currently power charges are capped at 6 and endu charges are capped at 3 in calculator. You can modify that in IF statement.

Well... 2ex is maybe a bit to much for it. Base attacks per second is preatty low. You can increase that by spending 1 scouring to remove mastercraft and than another 2ex to add multiple crafts and go for crit chance and attack speed. But imo its not worth it. Play with it as is, save money for better one or do dailys for Vagan and hunt down a dagger with better attack per second base (1.4+ will be good enough).

Guys, I got an idea maybe it's bad but : If you replace voll's protector for a carcass would it be better ? you would gain life,res and evasion and 50% more mana. The only thing is that u change Inc Area of Effect for Pcoc. Would it be still viable ? I know that u cant put conc effect instead of pcoc tho on the carcass

That wont be good. Power charge on crit support gem mechanics are different than Voll's Protector. PCoC gem grants power charge on crit only once per skill hit/cast. Cyclone hits 2 times within "attacks per second" period of time. If your "attacks per second" is 1.5 cyclone will hit 3 times / s. With PCoC gem you will be granted max 1 power charge no matter how many targets you passed trough within that one cyclone roll. With Voll's Protector all targets counts as seperate source of power charge generation, meaning in the example above you will be granted with 3 charges PER MONSTER being in the range of your cyclone roll.

So Voll's Protector is mandatory item and BIS for this build.

Thank you for the advice !!!

btw is it possible to add a pcoc gem into the calc?
(for single target dmg with 70%chance of a 2nd charge on crit)
iam also not sure about the aps per sec, seems like u can make a single cyclone attack last 1 sec but also a lot less than that, depending hwo far the coursor is away from the character.

Its possible. Result should be the same as if u cap your charges to just 1. Because statisticly you will fire cast on crit more often than you will have chance to gain another power charge in that time (see number of cast/s).

You know, every calculator or mathematical model of smtg is allways a some kind of simulation that is based on some kind of assumptions. Nothing is perfect but at least gives you some idea. I may be wrong here and there in my assumptions so if u find something that is not what it should be - let me know.
