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

Hi Lifting (and all the other pros out there):

I'm a relatively new player, got to lvl 70 and maps for the first time in 2.3 Ascendancy with an Earthquake build (also using one of your guides). Will this build work in the new Essence League 2.4 ? Any plans to update it, Lifting ?

Looking into trying a new play style with the new league. Any suggestions, hints, tips welcome.

ty in advance.

Excellent guides, btw. - esp for complete novices who are baffled by tips such as "and fill the rest of the passive tree out by what you need ... "

PS. Also posted in your Dual Totem Chieftain post - as considering that as well.

It has been updated for 2.4. Nothing has really changed tbh. It is still good! :)

Thanks for the kind words!

Just wanted to say that i am having so much fun with this build so far, got myself a good 5 link axe for 16 alts, i know i cant believe it either!!!.
Loving the way cyclone feels,I usually play spell caster builds so this was a very nice change of pace.
Much appreciated LNB.
Thanks from a new player for this build.

The only part I have problems understanding is:


Aura & Golem

- Hatred, Rallying Cry, CWDT (lvl 1) & Flame Golem (lvl 2)

The video mentions this as a 4-Link. So that means all spells are supposed to be triggered by CWDT?

Or are Hatred and Rallying Cry supposed to be used manually? Is it even possible to use them in a 4-linked setting then?

Cheers!

that might have been a typo since Rallying Cry cannot be triggered by CWDT, however im not sure about hatred but it would be best not to link it with CWDT as it will inconvenience you having to reset every time you take damage. Therefore in the 4 socket setup you mentioned only CWDT and flame golem are linked, with Hatred and Rallying Cry being on their own (triggered manually), You can link Hatred and Rallying Cry together but make sure CWDT is not.

Hey, nice build! I'm having fun playing it
What flasks do you recommend?
Thanks for the build. Have you though about incorporating Ancestral Warchief/Protector? I'm using it right now, and seems like it helps a lot with boss fights.
How do you actually see the ascendancy skill tree in the builder you linked?
