BIIIIIG info right here dude, any chance you can give mechanical tips? Going for it in SSFHC so any tips would be great :D

in hardcore you dont have the luxus. you have to balance between "be near enough to lure him out" and "far enough away, so that your minions dont run blindly into the whirlwinds". they wont die instantly, far away from it, but they will die sooner or later if u dont move them out.

Therefor it might be necessary in hardcore to have spare mana and be able to resummon the zombies again (when the boss is out of the storm). Another option might be playing without "Feeding Frenzy" and observe befor the fight in a map or so how they react to bosses and if u move away from them. if they are easier to navigate/handle without feeding frenzy, it is maybe an option to play without. this might be an option for all who want to do the boss in hardcore.

How does one get fortify on a bow?

You don't. I was talking about two different things.

Unless you are going for broke for the Faceted Fossil bow, I'm thinking endgame weapon will be one of the two below.

(Fossil crafted Serrated/bow)
Prefix +1 gems
Prefix +20% more attack damage (serrated fossil mod)
Prefix +2 to support gems (crafted)
Suffix Multimod (crafted)
Suffix Minion Attack speed (Crafted)
Suffix (Exalted slam.. best choice IMO is slam with a Redemer ex for movement speed)

You could also sub in bound fossils instead of Serrated to get up to 130% minion damage. Not sure if that will be better or worse than 20% more.

Using the bow allow the use of a nice quiver.
Life
resistances
Up to 30% minion speed (bound fossil)
Crafted +30 str
Etc... lots of choices here
-----

As for the two-handed melee weapon.... It would look close to the same
Prefix - +1 gems
Prefix - Supported by lvl 1 fortify
Prefix - +2 to support gems (crafted)
Suffix - Multimod (crafted)
Suffix - Minion attack speed.

Supported by lvl 1 fortify is only available on elder melee weapons as a prefix. Crafting one of those would look VERY similar to the bow above, just without the fossil crafting. You would gain the ability to use leap slam, but lose out on the quiver bonuses.
The Two-hander option works out to be about as good (dps wise) as the bow, so I'm thinking the bow is your best option.

Need to figure out if ~110% minion damage is better or worse than 20% more.


----------------------
TLDR
Looks like best weapon option for most people is a fossil crafted +1 gems multimod bow with either minion damage (bound fossil) or 20% more attack damage (serrated fossil)

Best option for the truly rich will be faceted fossil crafted +1 gems/+1 str/int gem multimod bow.

For people who just don't like bows. You can do a two-handed MELEE weapon (swords/axes/mace) with +1 gem and supported by lvl 1 fortify prefixes
-------
Edit: I just ran some numbers through POB, 20% more vs 110-130 minion damage and they are always within 2-5% of each other, with the edge in my config going to increased minion damage mod. The expensive Facet fossil bow adds another 10% more damage on top of the other options. Funny enough that bow gets within 2% or 3% of the previous leagues Maim mace.

***IMPORTANT*** Edit 2: It was just pointed out to me that you can't Cyclone with a bow (totally spaced that) SO if you want to do the Cyclone build, you'll want to try to get a two-handed melee option. Note that nothing else really changes here. The bow crafting can be done on a melee weapon. You'll just obviously not be able to use a quiver.
