[3.17] For Slayer / Champion - Ngamahu Cyclone / Consecrated Path / Tectonic Slam

Thanks so much for this build/guide. My first Toon in Abyss was solid but just couldn't get past mid tier maps. I was able to get to mapping with this build at low 60s and so far in low 70s have been able to do tier 8 maps easily. Thanks so much for resurrecting the fun in Abyss for me!

In terms of helm enchant, Cyclone attack speed does slightly more damage than Cyclone damage. However, I recommend picking up Cyclone damage as helm enchant because you can get attack speed from jewels and other gear slots.

I think you didnt read my question properly.. i was asking about using "150% Buff granted by Flame golems" enchant instead of "40% Cyclone damage" enchant..

not attack speed enchant.. the flame golems also give increase attack..

LOL @ people who level Sunder with 2h Weapons in 2k17.

I'll save anyone debating trying this build out some time: Either level using Sunder with Dual Weild, or use EQ with 2H weapons. Sunder with 2H weapons is one of the most clunky & unpleasant experiences out there. Sure, it's doable, but once you hit level ~50 or so and you find yourself constantly dying as a result of being locked in place by a relatively slow multistrike, you'll be hating yourself for not taking the advice given in my comment.

First of all i would like say thank you for this very detailed guide, it really helped a lot.
This is my gear after the first ten days, in which i mainly did uber-lab farming. I would like to take on the endgame bosses next, but im not sure if 5,7k hp (2,7k armour, 5,2k evasion) are enough for sth like shaper. I never did the fight without VP yet.
Anything i should still invest before ? Still need a better boot enchant, as i just bought new ones and my gems are not maxed out yet.

Spoiler

btw. my first self-six-linked chest ever <3

Congrats on your 6L! On your stats, it is possible to beat Shaper with that. There are players who beat Shaper with 5.3K life but they are very skillful players and they are very familiar with Shaper mechanics.

The key difference between Vaal Pact builds and non Vaal Pact builds is that former requires you to tank a little more in order to survive, while the latter requires you to evade to stay alive.

And if you can afford, Watcher's Eye (extra damage as fire from Anger) with Xoph's Blood will give you huge damage buff.

I could easily afford a Watchers's Eye. How would the optimal curse / aura setup look like if i put in anger ? Drop flammability ? Would mean i would also need a new helm enchant.
Still got about 13ex to spend, so shouldnt be a problem if it gains me even more damage

Glad you are enjoying the build. Remember to check out the FAQ section. :)

I probably wasn't clear. Cyclone enchant on helm is better than fire/lightning golem enchant as you don't have to recast the golem to get the benefit.

Therefore, for helm enchant, go for cyclone attack speed/damage instead of golem.

However, if you do get golem enchant on your helm, you can certainly use it till you find an upgrade.

The best rolled Watcher's Eye is this.

And yes, you will drop Flammability and pick Anger.

The best helm enchant is Cyclone attack speed/damage. Cyclone attack speed does slightly higher Shaper damage but I recommend going for Cyclone damage as helm enchant. The reason is because you can obtain attack speed from jewels and other gear slots.

Ehh I found around level 50 was when 2H sunder got super good. Just gotta keep your weapon up to date and you basically one shot everything. I wouldn't recommend it for hardcore, because as you say multistrike locking is definitely a thing, but I felt real good as 2H sunder and enjoyed it immensely.

Hi i really like the build and i was wondering if it's a good idea to get the axe dmg notes/slaughter?

This was my experience as well. Cruised into level 55 without breaking a sweat.

Hey,

Given we compensate the 50 dex loss with another piece, wouldnt Lightpoacher would be great damage buff for the build ?

We maybe lose Dex/Chaos Res / 10% Ms, but we gain 20% Spirit Burst trigger chance, 1 Abyss sock, and some all resist.

It seems pretty brokken to me.

Any thoughts ?





PS : If it has been answered before, then my bad. I didnt find anything through research fonction in this thread

I feel like it is getting harder and harder for me to get a Xoph's Amulet with the increase in prices of exalts ><
