[2.4] How to smash Heads. Extremely detailed guide about the Facebreaker gloves and builds!

No i don't use conc effect and i STRONGLY suggest that you don't use it too. At least now i know why you feel that cyclone has a terrible AoE radius ... sadly conc. effect does that to your cyclone

As a 4L i'd suggest

Cyclone + Faster Attacks + Blood Magic + Fortify ( or Melee Physical Damage instead of Fortify if you feel that you need more damage instead of more survivability at this point )

Well when you get the needed AoE radius stuff if you still feel like the cyclone radius is too little .. then i guess cyclone is just not for you, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Well there is already an entire section explaining that in the guide ^^
But yeah ... frenzy charge is a better option than a skill point, even extra endurance charge is better than a skill point.

Well you could do that too though in that case i'd suggest taking Iron Reflexes.
Also don't plan for a 123/123 passive skill tree .. even at level 100 you don't have 123 passive skill points unless you've killed all bandits in all difficulties (which you really shouldn't do). The revenge of the hunted circle is way too far away and thus it is extremely ineffective ... loose it.

@AiDesu
I completely understand what you are saying but what you are asking from me ( and this guide ) is a bit too much and i just can't manage to do that.
You see a good newbie guide transcends any given build and requires tons of work and tons of info. I've tried to make a newbie guide in the past with mild success but what i've found that from that experience is that it is indeed way to hard to do that and even harder to maintain given the constant changes in PoE. On top of that without any arrogance at all i must say that even if i was a PoE newbie a couple of years ago i wasn't a newbie to the genre. I was playing hack'n'slash aRPGs for well over 15 years doing pretty much all games of the genre in existence. I'm saying all that because it s actually very difficult for me to know what a newbie knows and what a newbie needs explained making me rather ineffective for creating such a guide. I do try to give some general advice in the Tips and Tricks section but that's all i'm willing to do really.

As for this guide - well in my opinion it is as newbie friendly as newbie friendly guides go. Yes, you need to have some basic knowledge about the game and the genre but giving such knowledge isn't the job of build guides in my opinion. Even more if a player lacks basic knowledge i've always advised such players NOT to follow any guide but to try the game on their own and to actually learn the basics before even thinking about following a guide.

As for cruel bandits .. well .. like i've explained both options are good, you need to understand that tooltip DPS is NOT everything in poe. For example attack speed affects your dps but it doesn't affect thinks like enemy armour mitigation, counterattacks etc. Don't feel bad for picking up Oak ;)

As for Masters. Well ... honestly when the masters where introduced i just leveled up all of them that was pretty much all i've done! Hell i've made a big thread with info about farming different zones for masters (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1046339/page/1). But i guess you are asking which masters you want to have in your hideout, i'd say Zana, Elreon, Haku and Vorici ( with the elreon hideout ). You need Zana for the daily free map and good missions ( i.e. find the unique item ) , you need Elreon because you need to be able to craft your rings/amulet and because at level 6 you can buy a cheap stack of jewelers from him, you need vorici because of the cheap stack of fusings you can buy from him when he hits level 6 also changing colors and getting 4L easily is quite nice, you need Haku because crafting your chest/shield/boots/gloves/helmet is always nice :)

So yeah .. in the end i must say that even if the guide is quite huge i still constantly try to improve. it but there will always be something left out i guess ... but the good thing is that i'm aways here to help ^^
