Yes it is. 100%. I just, unfortunately, won't be maintaining the guide beyond 3.9. But if I was updating it for 3.10, I wouldn't change a thing. Obviously feel free to customize it anyway you like.

I know that this guide won't be updated anymore, but maybe someone has an idea how the ranger could deal with that, after the patch to come, she will no longer be immune to being stunned while using cyclone?

We have removed the stun immunity from Cyclone, but made no other changes to it.

(source)

I had a look at different ways to obtain stun immunity, but, alas, the poor ranger has absolutely nothing in her Ascendancies...

Unwavering Stance doesn't seem to be an option for an evasion-based character...

Hey Caligula_Exile!

We already PM'd but I figured I'd post here in case others are interested.

Caligula_Exile, you are more than welcome to take this guide and make it your own. "quote" it, copy it, update it, repost it. It's yours. I wish I had the time to keep it up. I know you like it.

In terms of this guide working for 3.11...the new Cyclone change (being able to be stunned) kinda works in this build's favour. Well, not favour, but this build will work better than most with Cyclone. Lots of people will be going with big heavy melee. Lots of Armour, CwDT, damage mitigation...but this build focuses on Dodge and Evasion. Dodging or Evading Hits completely bypasses any stun chance so this build has a better likelihood of sustaining Cyclone for longer.

The key, if you're going to keep the guide or build going is finding a way to keep channelling Cyclone at all times, not just while leeching. That'll be a big help in evading stun.

You rock Caligula_Exile!

Any advice on how to scale damage? it's pretty wierd on bosses xD.
whats the possibility of droping some dmg nodes or some stuff and going poison with this since the fast atk speed? i wanted to play raider so bad in SSF and this build took my atention, but im kinda lost now, currently on tier 8-10 maps

Hey G0RRASH! I almost didn't see this post from this thread! I'm glad I saw it.

I checked out your PoB and it looks really good! You have awesome defence in dodge and 170% life (which is a lot of the east side of the tree). I'd leave the tree alone for now and just try some gear upgrades. IF you can make the colours work, Spiked Gloves would help. Two Steel rings would too. Same with attempting a 6 link...somehow. Also, fully ascending would be a huge help. Avatar of the Slaughter is huge! I really like the tree and your gear. But I think if you slowly do the above, the easiest first...depending on what you have kicking around, I think you've really got a solid build. The guide itself wasn't the hardest hitting in 3.9. So your changes are great improvements! Good job!

I know this guide won't be updated anymore but maybe someone can answer my question.

Do Kintsugi's and Wind Dancer's defense bonuses add up?

Kintsugi:

"

(...)
20% less Damage taken if you have not been Hit Recently
50% increased Evasion Rating if you have been Hit Recently

Wind Dancer:

"

20% less Damage taken if you haven't been Hit Recently
40% less Evasion Rating if you haven't been Hit Recently
20% more Evasion Rating if you've been Hit Recently

40 % less damage taken sounds huge... and I might feel like giving this build a try in Harvest.

What about fortify?

"

20% less damage taken

Would it add up as well?

Edit 7/15/20: Just in case someone reads here and is interested in the topic: The question has been answered in another thread.

Hey Caligula_Exile! Ya! They stack. They have their own math as the link you linked says, so it's not technically "additive" but yes, they do work together. That's a sweet unique and keystone go combine. Nice find! And to answer your question in that thread, I'm pretty sure that Damage Taken refers to all damage (including DOTs). Fortify will only mitigate Hits but that's in the gem description.

That's a lot of mitigation! Nice find!

Hey there! I absolutely love your bone zombie build and would like to try a melee build of some kind. Is this build up-to-date for 3.12?

Hey Zuuule!

This build is not up to date. The tree has changed a lot since then. If you're interested in a Max Block (without Glancing Blows) and Bladestorm as the main skill, this build should still be valid with the current setup/tree. It's one of my favourites for sure. The only reason I stopped using it as a guide was cause you ended up needing a 6-link and to quickly clear triple-digit T16's...I like my guide not to NEED a 6-link to do content. Anyway, the link is below if you're interested.
