[3.11] Cyclone Slayer (RETIRED)

Despite what people in-game said you're right, pulverise support certainly was a DPS loss compared to Damage on Full Life.

I do like moving foritfy over from leap slam to cyclone.

Currently 6L Cyclone setup is:

Melee Physical Support
Infused Channeling
Brutality Support
Damage on Full Life support
Fortify support

I see you said to use Pride, B&S, F&S as auras but that was so much mana reserved I went back to Purity in place of pride.

I moved my maim from Cyclone to F&S (read that the stronger effect will override the weaker but when I did it the maim effects combined) and that increases the mana reserved. Since Pride's effect is like Maim maybe I'll ditch it to keep more Mana. I had to un-4L several of my pieces of equipment to keep stuff off.

Hi I recently respecd into this build, I'm confused about using blood rage and molten shell. Do I just spam them while killing mobs or only using it for bosses or what?

Have you considered Impale instead of infused channeling? with a small investment in the impale node just south of duelist, and dread banner, you get a huge dps increase, especially for single target

How do you use Retch with Brutality?

Blood rage you cast if you don't have it up. Molten shell if you feel like you need it soon.

Not according to my math. Current pob dps is 1.59 mil, with the changes you mentioned, it's 1.78 mil. I dropped sand and blood for dread banner and the fotify nodes + a few life nodes for the impale cluster.

That's not huge dps increase. Plus you lose a bit of life and defensive benefits of infusion.

Retch is reflect chaos damage is reflected damage and is not affected by damage modifiers

Have you tested Impact vs Bane of Legends and is so what did you think?

Okay so Impact has:

Potentially 15% more damage - This is only useful against uniques and rares. Mega cull boils down to more dps than 15%, not even considering that the 15% is conditional.

and Area - The area is a bit bigger but I like, you lose the movement speed and attack speed which I like way more. The area isn't that much better imo.

I think impact might be a better fit for crit builds.

Update your skill tree its 3.6

Yeah I hadn't read about that, was busy playing league. Updated it now. The mana feels a bit uncomfy so I'm not 100% sure but I'm keeping those links for now. (Maim + Flesh and stone)

maybe a stupid question but why do you not use the close combat support gem?
