The Exiled Monk (an ancient guide) - cyclone insane AoE/damage

in 2.0, we lose inner force buff, but we can easily make up for it with some jewels. I havnt really looked at the open beta other than the skill tree, but I have heard about some powerful jewels. Cant wait!


Edit- by losing inner force, we get up to 6 talent points to use. I see 3 easy jewel spots!

Truth, not to mention there seems to be even more Increased Area available on jewels. Hyyyype!

PS: I've done some testing with this , even tho its gives more deeps and 15% sweet sweet movement speed I lose 5% area, also only viable in maps till 75 since it reflects shocks back to you (18s+). Funny the way it runs with Restraint + Adrenaline Quicksilver + Vaal Haste, nobody can keep up :P

I actually tried that belt, and its pretty awesome, however as you already mentioned, the mobs begin to hit much much harder in higher maps, making it a potential 1 shot. I do really like the movement speed though!

I can vouch for that, just got my first death with the belt on a 77. Defenitely not recomended for high level maps :P

Welcome to the build, you beautifull quest reward jewel. :)

Can someone post their 2.0 build? Can't remember what it looked like pre 2.0 and I'm trying to start one in the new league. Thanks!

Many people have asked me if this build is still viable in 2.0.
Yes it is still viable, but it has had its damage reduced substantially from the cyclone nerf several months ago.

I have updated the skill tree for 2.0

Prismatic Cyclone


Please note, I do not play this build anymore, I have used the character for another fun build. But dont worry, I think I will most likely play this build again down the road.

If you are using this build in 2.0, feel free to send an update here =D

if I may suggests my tree instead?!:
