Firstly, cheers Lifting for a very nice build guide as always (first one of your I've tried, and so far so good :D ).

Once closer to mid 80s lvls (lvl 89 atm), with some more gear investment, you'll see a huge bump in deeps BGSilentKiller. I have to admit, I got very lucky early on in the league and dropped 2 taste of hates. With this setup I'm hitting 70k cyclone and 120k Heavy strike once buffed (with charges and onslaught) and 80k on cyclone and 140k on Heavy Strike with Atziri's Promise in tow:



EDIT:... lol, just dropped a
while doing a poo low lvl blue map to check deeps numbers. So, like I say, gear was luck, but ye, the Disfavor make a big difference.

EDIT2: ... oh ye, re Atziri, did a run last night, died twice (my own fault for going balls deep on the trio, and once to flameblast... what a nub XD).


How are you keeping hated, warlords mark and hearld of ash active at the same time?
Honestly guys, how he generate endu charges ?

He dont have, vengeance with endurance charges on stun, or leap slam with endu charges or something like that !
Might have been asked before but I'm to lazy to look through all the pages, but how the hell do you keep mana up? Do you use a flask or what?
Guyz, warlord's mark with blashphemy keeps mana and endurances charges up! Bonus endurance charge regen with juggernault

I don't. Was using HOA before switching to BM on cyclone + Hatred. Not optimal, so a bit of tweaking is definitely still required. Fact of the matter is, Hatred makes 1k diff on cyclone and +/-9k on Heavy strike, so it might be worth playing around with that and adding some thing else into the 6l cyclone setup (not sure what at this time however).
I will write something here when I can think of something clever and amusing.

Very nice man, congrats on the sick RNG :)

Thanks for the feedback =)

I assume you swap to Atziri's for single target dps on bosses and for everything else you Cyclone?

I did some re-arrangements on my skill tree and added 4th jewel that boosed my dps to 27k unbuffed and over 50k buffed, making it easy to kill/sustain in t8-10 maps, but bosses alone on Cyclone are hard and slow to kill.

I guess I'd have to pickup another Kaom's 5L axe and just swap to Heavy Strike to take them down.

Any tips/advice on Atziri, how did you kill her? I'm slowly getting levels and now at 80, things are looking good, but I see how I can use 5 more levels to add Splitting Strikes passive chain from the tree for some more sustain/dps.

Since I wrote the post, things are smoother, but Atziri, Izaru are still no go zone for me and those are the ones I want to take down once and for all to feel fully satisfied :)

What are your issues when facing Atziri? For me the hardest part is killing the adds fast enough before they heal her, but with high enough dps it is manageable.

For starters, I don't have the flasks people suggest for fighting her, as they are way too expensive at this point to buy, so I'm using Atziri's, Life flask + Bleeding removal, Granite with Bleeding removal, 40% damage increase with Life leech, and 40% movement speed with increased effect and faster charge.

Do you use single target DPS gem for her or still Cyclone through out all phases and getting to her?
I'm trying to snatch a good 6 link chest or Kaom's Primacy, but that's going to take a while I think.

How do i use Hatred with this? Warlord's mark reserv 49% and then Hatred 50%,
that leaves me with 6 mana??
