This is a crit based 3-in-1 build using Cyclone + Frost Blades + Blade Flurry. I have always wanted to play a crit based Cyclone build and with the re-introduced version of the Goddess Sword - Oni Goroshi in patch 3.1, I decided to create one with the sword as the center piece. 3 main skills are used in the build, namely: Cyclone + Frost Blades for mapping and Blade Flurry for single target.

Flasks Setup
Recommended " Budget " Note: Oni Goroshi is a degen sword so you will want an anti-poison flask to handle poison mobs. Otherwise, don't run maps that roll mobs can poison on hit. They are spooky.

=D |

How much viable end game this build is? It seems fun to do :O

Hey there, I was originally looking at Jugg or Pathfinder for building around.
Was discussing with Viperesque who thinks Slayer is best. Did you get deep into the theorycrafting portion of the build? Scion might be interesting too. livejamie

really noob question but i just dont get it...
why no golem? |
|
I think Carcass is in weak state now, AOE was nerfed, not worth it anymore

" I don't see any issues doing end game content once you have all the gears and character level in place. Do check out the recommended gears section as I am still in the process of updating it. :) _____________________________________________________________________________ " Slayer is definitely good ascendancy for the sword. However, since the sword is crit based, I feel Scion class will be a great fit for it too. You get best of both worlds: Overleech from Slayer, and more crit from Assassin. Besides that, because Scion is right at the center of the wheel, you can easily access to crit nodes in the skill tree. _____________________________________________________________________________ " You can use Ice or Flame (or even Stone for more life regen) golem with the build. Ice golem is preferred though for the crit chance and accuracy it provides. _____________________________________________________________________________ " It isn't that bad even with AOE nerfed. However, the best damage combo for the build will be Abyssus + Lightning Coil setup. _____________________________________________________________________________ On another note, I have updated Recommended Gears and Flask section of the guide. | |
Edit: This post should have gone into another thread. Sorry.
