[2.5 Video Guide] Beginners "End-Game-Viable" Tanky Cyclone Build

Great guide but I just can't use Static Strike for lvling, it just feels so bad to use. Sweep+Molten Strike feels way better.

lvl 70 for now in ST leag, testing that build, its really cool. i did a few adjustments, i've taken rampart node, swap determ to HoA+AA, put in EC(manual cast EC is faster than jumping around, imo). it may be worth it to swap FA to blood rage, lvl up CWDT a bit, put molten shell instead of bloodrage -> will have to manual cast blood rage but i really want to have at least 4L free for vaal cyclone. Its REALLY FUN, even more at beyond map, haha, pull 50 mobs to box, open box, pop button and witness beyond boss :D
my items are crap for standard, but got like 20k dps cyclone full-buff

Giving this a go and it's so much fun. here is a short video

so far it's going good :)

Edit - forgot to mention still low lvl, haven't got all the required gear and gems yet so hoping it goes well and i dont die lol

so i'm at act 3 cruel without dying and this is my current gear doing just over 3.5k of dmg without frenzy charges and got 2.9k of hp, if anyone can let me know if i'm doing ok that'll be great



Thanks in advance and a big thanks to LiftingNerdBro for the great guide.

Edit - also can someone explain how everything that cant be casted directly actually get cast as they require mana yet we have reserved all out mana on the 2 aura's. thanks

I hope this guide will be updated for Talisman League and also for Ascendancy with the new specializations... pleeeaaaaase? :)

Solid guide. Takes a lot of hard work to make a guide like this.

I have done many dual wield cyclone builds, my preference. Thinking of doing a two hander.

nice build but just 1 question
i know the 3% is nice but how do you expect the chaos golem will survive only it less of the 1/3 (2500) of is life ??? in my set up no choice to remove this because the golem take 2 hit and is dead :) no choice to get the Astramentis , ok thank peace :)

well this has been alot of fun got to lvl 73 went after Malachai (Merciless) and low and behold like always i died 5 times in total, with all 5 frenzy and Atziri' promise up i can get close to 23k dmg, only got 3.7k hp, here is the gear, not sure if im gonna keep this char as compared to my incinerater witch who is lvl 86 she does close to 49k dps.

Updated for 2.1

No real changes to the build besides Cyclone getting a slight damage nerf (10%). Cyclone still deals a ton of damage and is by far one of the best melee skills available at the moment.

The video linked to the main post is the old 2.0 video, the reason for this is that the build setup (gems, skill-gems etc) haven't changed. Make sure to check out the video if you haven't already.

Best of luck bros! :)

Very cool, any chance you might also publish a guide for a CoC Cyclone with Blade Vortex...?
