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

Just dropped a decent ~500 dps kitavas feast and was wondering if that's a decent weapon before a better rare/atziri's

- What is bugged about Infused Channeling:

The tooltip does not show the 10% buff from Infusion working for Cyclone. It is currently not known whether this is just a tooltip bug, or Infusion is not applying to Cyclone. It works for other skills.

INFUSED CHANNELING STILL CONTRIBUTES MASSIVE DAMAGE SUPPORT AND THE REDUCED DAMAGE TAKEN MODIFIER.

Ergo: don't replace it now, there's no reason to. Even if Infusion isn't giving us the 10%, it's still a great support.

- What Stance are we in?

BLOOD. We link Flesh & Stone to a Maim Support and have that active, which gives us a free, massively improved Maim effect just by being in Blood stance. This frees up a gem slot in our 6l, which is optimally taken by Impale Support.

- What Banner?

DO NOT USE DREAD BANNER.
This was a mistake in the build originally, we use WAR BANNER (for the %inc phys taken and Adrenaline buff on planting).

Plant it on bosses *WHILE CYCLONING*, and reactivate it a second or two later (buff only lasts for a sec).

- "I can't afford to run Pride/Blood&Sand/Flesh&Stone /w Maim/War Banner!! HELP!"
Solutions:
+Drop Pride, run Herald of Purity.
+Get a ring with -x mana crafted to make Cyclone free (this might get patched at some point tbh, not sure that's intended)
+Save up for or start leveling an Enlighten 3/4

Thanks for the guide! Been playing for a few leagues, but this was the first time I've been able to kill uber elder. And in the first week too! Pretty insane build, and super fun

Is there a reason we don't use this weapon until Atziri's Disfavour? ~500 DPS and it makes it so we don't need the rings with - mana cost yet.

There is no set order of weapons to use.
Apply your own preferences and common sense to your gear choices =)

Bear in mind though that the "allies" effect doesn't apply to yourself afaik, and that it's a crit-based weapon - we do not crit.

Is Maim Support necessary if you're using flesh and stone? Swap it for melee phys or something?

Also have they fixed Infused Channeling yet?

Read literally 3 or 4 posts before yours =)

Killed Uelder just now, super smooth with cyclone

here my items (yes some are pretty shit :D)



Thanks for the guide, this league update was needed for cyclone to be enjoyable again ;)

i have looked into poe.ninja for builds that are cyclone slayers and like 80% or 70% of players from level 90 to 100 are using dread banner, how can you be so sure that war banner is better?

Hey mate loving the build so far but as you update the guide i'm a little confused with gem links.
You mention both banners but we can only use 1, which are we taking?

Thanks in advance :)

I changed a few things today and will hopefully have time to do more on the thread tomorrow

Here are all my current links for mapping:

For single target/bossing swap Pulverize with Impale and swap dread banner to war banner

If you don't have a fortify axe then swap dmg on full life with fortify

Hello sensei, can we get vulrenability curse on glove?
