PoE 3.3 Freezing Cyclone Slayer Build

3.3 Changes
Nothing core continues to be altered but there are several changes to some couple of existing support gems we use which are nice. Also, newer and more effective ones that may get this to builds damage even greater.

The Story

I'd the concept with this build after playing some of the popular cyclone builds in 3.0 Harbinger(mainly Ngamahu's flame/Ahfack's Crimson Cyclone) to see things i loved and disliked about the subject. The Ngamahu's flame builds, while very good, did not sense just like a 'cyclone' build but much more of a magma ball build. Ahfack's Crimson Cyclone build was my personal favorite before one and that I really don't have any dislikes. After playing an actual build for such a long time I needed to possess a similarly hard-hitting build but getting as near to 100% elemental damage when I could manage.

After searching at the different choices and passives easily become on routes I needed to consider, I chose cold damage. The thought of Cycloning via a pack and watching them shatter to dust when I passed sounded pretty fun and so I began building upon that concept.

I will eventually do Hall of Grandmasters and Uber Elder but they are not high on my list of things to do



Pro's & Con's

+ Fast clear speed.
+ Easy League start and scales well as you gain currency.
+ Cyclone kills as you move, no stopping.
+ Frozen things can't hit you.
+ Melee build, see their frozen faces before they shatter.
+ Immune to Stun and Bleed.
+ 3c budget gets you farming maps.
+ No mirror tier or Headhunter required.
+ No corpses left behind to be raised/detonated.
+ Insane leech with VP and Slayer Ascendancy.

- Melee build, gotta get up close and personal
- Min/max End game items will be expensive but not unobtainable.
- Requires one specific unique which makes SSF hard to go full cold.
- Not a face tank build, requires dodging mechanics(a pro me personally)

Playstyle

Zone into the map, hit a quicksilver flask then spin to win when a pack is near. Elemental reflect is not a factor we need to bother about so causes it to be even simpler.

With bosses, drop totem and employ flasks Vaal haste when you are able. As always with Cyclone make certain not to lock yourself into the animation whenever a boss does something particularly nasty. Once they make a move nasty, LEAP you fool! Then leap to get Fortify. If you're a work hard you are able to leap to maintain Fortify.

Enchants/Corruptions

Helm: Cyclone attack speed - Cyclone Damage - Ancestral Protector added attack speed or Ancestral Warchief added damage - Frostbite increased the effect

I favor a Cyclone specific one since it does not require me to decrease a totem constantly. Totem/Frostbite have to do with equality. Frostbite most likely best throughout for leveling with Cyclone Attack Speed - Damage the finish goal.

If you use a watcher's eye to achieve 100% cold conversion, Frostbite enchants will beat out a cyclone enchant.

Weapon: +2 Range corruption

Gloves: +1 socketed gems corruption for aura setup or Commandment of Force.

Boots: Attack speed if killed recently is the best Lab enchant for 99% of things. Any boss that doesn't pop adds out enough you can use a Writhing Jar.



+1 Max frenzy corruption best overall but requires keeping up frenzy charges.

Amulet: Additional Curse corruption. Used with either enfeeble for damage reduction or Ele weakness/Punishment for more damage.

Levelilng up ~ Ascendancy ~ Bandits

All tree's are 3.3 updated. I will be rerunning 1-85 when I do the budget run to make sure the trees are appropriate for a league start.

(Ready to do Cruel Lab)

(Ready to do Merc Lab)
When reaching the node before tireless cluster we can regret out of essence sap to pick up all of the wireless nodes. At this point, our leech+tireless reduction will be enough to sustain our mana even while single targeting.

123 points: http://www.poeurl.com/bQiV

If all you're doing is plowing t10-t14 maps and don't care about end bosses, this tree is for you!
Speed demon!

Reduced life but max craze charges and attack speed for fastest leap slams we are able to get with Hrimburns. I have been building towards this in Pokemon league and it is been a great time.

Ascendancy
Head towards Brutal Fervour first and then Headsman.

Bandits
Kill them all

Tips for Leveling

Use anything you want until cyclone is available. I use cleave personally but anything works.

Getting Spirit void can make Cyclone feel much smoother but cyclone will still Eat your mana in early stages. If you do not seem like chugging mana flasks using Mana Leech Support will solve it. If you're getting mana difficulties with Hate/Frostbite using Herald of Ice/Frostbite will give you lots of mana not to go out during single target cycling. Lower damage although not that big an offer overall.

Later on, you will not need Spirit void to sustain mana during single target cyclone. It is just useful for leveling.

Using Brute Pressure Solution jewel will require proper care of any Int problems you've while leveling. Placing it within the socket right alongside Golem's Bloodstream can give 50 int whatever is around the jewel.

At lvl 51 I recommend obtaining Terminus Est. The movement speed alone can make everything just feel good... also it features a lot of raw physical damage.

At lvl 64 you'll be able to make use of Kondo's Pride or Hezmana's Bloodlust. Either of these is okay but Kondo's is much better damage wise. Using Hezmana's helps you save getting to regret points afterward.

When you purchase Hezmana's after that you can regret the Spirit void if you wish to release points.

The very first unique I order while mapping is really a Bronn's Lithe but Carcass Jack is a perfect choice if you want to become more defensive. Both of them are fantastic chests and provides us with a pleasant throughout damage boost. These allow me to concentrate on the more defensive passives each level while still doing great damage.

Following Bronns I am inclined to obtain a Carnage Heart for resists/all stats along with Devotos. Next, it is really saved for Disfavour!

Mapping

Cannot Leech Maps are a no-no

Elemental Reflect Maps

Because the build is really a 90% cold conversion construct it means running elemental reflect maps technically is not doable. However, the only real factor causing us to be elemental is a set of mitts and a pair of points. If you're cheap like I'm after I roll an elemental reflect map I simply throw it right into a tab with every other elemental reflect maps.

When it gets full I.

Regret 2 points
Swap Rings and gloves
Replace Hypothermia with faster attacks/culling/onslaught
Replace EWD with Maim/Ruthless(whichever you aren't using)
Replace Hatred with Haste
Replace Frostbite with Vuln

Profit.

How to Open Your Poe Mystery Boxes?

How to Open Your Mystery Boxes After purchasing some Stormcaller Mystery Boxes, you can find them in your microtransaction stash in-game waiting to be unwrapped. Note that these Mystery Boxes have random outcomes. Some items are rarer than others. You are guaranteed to get an item that is worth at least what you paid for it (30 points) and it's statistically more likely that you'll receive something of higher value.

Check out this video compilation of all the microtransactions contained in the Stormcaller Mystery Box! Existing Microtransactions in the Box:

Path of Exile: Improve Exalted Orbs Drop Rate

One of the important reasons why ARPG like PoE attract players is that a lot of experience and rewards are enough to drive players to explore in the game. Many players are very interested in how to increase the drop rate of currency and equipment. Some people may be annoyed that PoE Exalted Orbs is not enough. After reading this article, think about it again. Exalted Orbs can drop randomly from mobs, chests, etc. from practically any zone; I don't believe they are limited to maps or other higher-tier zones. The simplest way of increasing your chances to see an Exalted Orb drop is to kill more mobs, open more chests, and turn over more rocks. You can also get Exalted orbs from certain Divination Cards, including Abandoned Wealth which drops in Arsenal and Vault maps, and The Hoarder which can drop in The Belly of the Beast level 1 and 2, The Harvest, and the Vault map. Farming those locations may ostensibly increase your chances. I suppose it's also possible to get

You can also open the items wiki page via ctrl+w or open the item search on poe.trade instead via ctrl+q.
