Hey, dude! Nice build, thx! I try to do this.
But pls tell me for why do u use skyforth?
While Cycloning, the player is immune to stun and knockback.


you don't need skyforth at all for this build

power charge generation helps with keeping ele overload up but getting the crit boot enchant on a rare is just as good imo

Wanna roll that build, you guys thinks that it is possible do that with like 8-10ex budget?

Possible yes, optimal not really.

To go in depth, judging from last league a good 700+ ES chest would roughly 8 to 9 exalts; or would take approximately 60-70% of your budget. Then you have the rings, good boots, helm (with enchant) etc. and the costs of each individual item would add up over time.

Then factor in the flasks that you might want Vinktar's, Dying Sun, etc. Not necessary by any means by makes the build feel better.

Unless you can kinda no-life and stalk poe.trade with alerts you can pick up some deals.

My advice is, start with a life-based Raider and once you have decent amount of currency (roughly, 30 exalts) re-spec into Pathfinder and CI. This is what I did in Breach.

you can have starter gear. 6s axe, 650+ nonlink chest, shaper gloves where you put cyclone in for easy color, rare es boots, the amu, vinktas and the rest pretty standard/cheap stuff. no dying sun. With this you can already farm strands. Dont get elemental overload but the new ele nodes in the bottom right. Its not worth without skyforth and I also think skyforths + eo would be an downgrade.

you can get like 5L 700es chest for like 50C easy. Is 6L that important? Most of dmg comes from cyclone itself or from meatballz?
This is my passive tree, i think it's superior to TS tree due to the new elemental nodes. Almost lvl 96 now, the next 2 passives will go into +30 strenght nodes due to the gloves gives 6% more es / 30 strenght, i also get more dps since strenght increases phys damage.

This is my gear:



I still have alot of ugrading to do, have been focusing on 6-linking the chest, got it yesterday after spending alot of fuses during the week. The build works just fine without the neck, Xoph's Blood Amber Amulet. However i would like to try it in the future, right now my es is abit to low though to feel comfortable switching out the neck, sitting at slighty over 10k atm.

My plan is to corrupt elemental weakness on hit on the gloves in the future, think that enchant would be dank for this build.

My h/o dps without flasks is around 10k for molten burst and 25k for cyclone, with this i have no problem clearing T15 maps (havent tried T16). However bosses with dual tanky mods can be abit rough, dps goes down alot when out of flasks.

its a great build, still there isnt much interest here, dunno why

btw Grocery u was lucky with drops? I see u are 94 and already have Headhunter and Skyforths :D



would u recommend playing with Kiara instead of 1 flask (what drop then?) or going for Valyrium

The AOE nerf hurts this build as it hurt all melee builds. I think there are better builds but maybe people got tired of it?

I spend a lot of time flipping but I was a bit lucky as well. Also, lab is super profitable.

Respecced to this build after playing EA earlier in league. Tried many different paths in the tree and ended up with this:

https://www.pathofexile.com/fullscreen-passive-skill-tree/AAAABAIDAQFvBAcNfA5cEVAUdRUgFdcXlhjbGYoZtBqPGyUc3B8CIvQj0ySdKjgsvyzpLYM1uTbFN0w9X0QNRX5GcUlRSbFLrkyzTipSKVJTVeBWSFZjWFpbr1xrX2pfsGBDYlpl8Gr6bAttGW49bmlvJ2-edU59dX-Af8aDCYRIhMWE2YauhrOHaot6jxqPYI_6kyeXBpeVl_Saapu1nMSet6EvpMKmjacIpyuplK_rtAy3Ir6Avoq-p8HFwzrDbcSixLjHncjwykrK09Af0NDTftX418_YJNlb3Q3fmOL35ebn6ukC6Zjquuvu7Bjveu-I7-vw1fFt9qP22vkz-Tf7Cf66_xA=

Looking at what others have posted I didn't expect to end up with anywhere near this kind of dps. My dps tripled from 30k to 90k in a few days. A friend of mine was able to achieve similar as well.

Current stats @ lvl 97: 10.3k ES, 91.8k cyclone in hideout w/herald of ash.

The big key here is that jewel sockets are king with this build. Nothing beats them. Not forces of nature, not primeval forces, NOTHING. Once you get your defenses right, prioritize jewel sockets over everything. I have 7 in this tree, each jewel granting 6-7k dps.

Also, it seems after the AOE nerf the inc AOE gem in the cyclone 6L isnt very beneficial. I took it out and hardly noticed a difference in AOE. Dying sun should be all you need. A 4R1G1B regalia with added fire/fire pen should be far superior at this time. And like others noted; you dont need skyforth, but I dont recommend valyrium either as you'll be losing out on a lot of damage from a well-rolled opal ring. Heart of oak (2 points) + 80% stun avoidance enchant on boots is all you need.

Current gear:

Hey guys,

Have a question.
"
Cyclone spins at the player's attack speed and deals area of effect damage twice per spin. When dual wielding, each weapon hits once per spin.
according to http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Cyclone . I am wondering proc rate of molten burst is aps(per spin) or twice aps(per damage deal).

Cyclone tooltip already counted twice per spin as dps so I guess twice per spin. So I test with my friend. Cyclone aps around 4.7 seems like proc molten burst more than 5.59 other skill + multistrike, which means proc rate based on twice of cyclone aps. However, really hard to manually count molten burst on eye :( Any test result or confirmation?

Thanks in advance!
