[3.7] Ahfack's Crimson Cyclone | Shaper FULL Life Kill Vid | 100% Pure Phys | All Content | PoBs

I'm having a little trouble with this build. My damage seems low and I can't figure out why.

I switched to cyclone from Frost Blades Slayer at about level 70. I'm fairly sure I missed something changing over that I probably wouldn't have if I had followed the build from the start.

I know I probably need to re-craft my axe. I bought it as it is because it was pretty cheap and cheaper than the same axe without multi. I also need to add war chief totem at some point. I'll also be adding lion's roar. I'm not sure if those things alone are my problem or if there's something bigger I'm missing.

Do my weapon gems and tree look okay so far?

Hey guys,

This is only really my second league playing PoE but after farming some currency on my starter, I followed the non-crit Fortify vaal axe version of this build and had a lot of fun/success thanks to this guide so cheers Ahfack!

I recently got lucky with a Watcher's Eye which got me enough currency to try out a Headhunter, adding to the Inspired Learning jewel I managed to get earlier in the league.

I assume pure-phys and no crit is probably sub-optimal if you have HH so I've been looking at [3.7] INSPIRED HEADHUNTER CYCLONE - ULTIMATE 5 Way Emblem Legion Carry And Map Clear by whissp however I was wondering if there are any recommended changes I should make on Ahfack's* build (non-crit axe version) in the meantime?

Maybe by adding crit/ele dmg to the mix. I tested without Resolute Technique on the first day without changing anything else but it didn't really seem worth it. I assume my crit multi and/or accuracy is too low.

I did my best to find an answer to this question in this thread and elsewhere before posting, I swear!

I had a quick look and your axe only grants lvl 16 Fort (guide recommends lvl 18 or 20). I think your main problem though is that you are trying to go the crit version without having the gear for it.

I'm not even sure what the difference is. I picked vaal axe because the guide said sword was for crit and was more expensive. I pretty much followed the axe tree/ascendancy and picked items from the suggested types. The tree was leading me to resolute technique.

What do I need to do differently to fix my damage without going crit and how much more expensive is the crit version to gear?

FieryCabbage, check out the "Crafting your own weapon vs. Disfavour/Starforge - VERY DETAILED" section in the OP for your weapon.

I'm new and it all made sense to me. I started with a 6link Disfavour then crafted my Fort Axe. Ahfack explains exactly how to craft it. In hindsight, I probably should have skipped the Disfavour but it still worked great.

Get resolute technique and a new axe. Your axe was probably cheap because it's terrible unfortunately.

Just wanted to drop a quick thx for the guide, although I made a diviation from the original build, it was still a great help.

It's the first league ever where I reached lv95 and managed to kill uber elder deathless.

Heii love the build. My most played build in all the time i have played.love the feeling of cyclone.
I am having truble figuring out what to upgrade or go from here, would really like some feedback.
my profile is TobyCyclone. and it is set to public.
Thansk for the build and have a great day xD

I would drop damage on full life for impale. With 100% chance to impale you're getting a bit over 100% more damage after the 5th hit.

Thanks for the advice. Just hit 94. I've swapped in an Impale, was lucky with corrupting, as got 23% quality. The hideout DPS has gone down, but not worried by that. The next question is about the Impale clusters. I see you drop Executioner to get one of the clusters. Is this the right way to go and which impale cluster should I take first?

Thanks for helping.

Am I the only one who fail to see how +1% max resist ( Kaom's ) can be better than 6% more Hp ? Have you considered that option and if so why do you think it's not as good ?

Thanks, 200 hours of summer well invested :D
