Update - Just did 2x Atziri run with no deaths in under 7 minutes. Build is best I've played so far (for Atziri...and my budget). Don't know how well I'd fare in Uber though, the ad phase would probably wind me up lol.

im glad you enjoy it!

for uber i suggest you try my second variant, the one which gets a lot of aura of effect nodes and flask nodes, that build will allow you to get to around 97% light/fire rez on flask, this means you can just facetank atziri without acuity or vaal pact since her damage will be lower massively

Guys any idea what skill would be best to use with this setup if I don't really like cyclone?
Ground slam, static strike or something else?

Hey, sorry for the late reply

Any skill works really, you dont have to change anything in the build, just gem links of course depending on the skill you want to use

groundslam and sweep are really good in my opinion for staves, i personaly prefer going with physical skills rather than conversion ones like molten strike, static strike etc because reflect is a lot easier to deal with and the leech is much better with non conversion skills.

As for links on these skills, i recomend GS/Sweep-BM-MPD-FA-Multistrike-Critdmg(swap to conc effect for bosses)

So, I have been playing with staff, crits and cyclone now and I have one question.

How you like the "new" cyclone where you cant namelock enemies anymore(targets on ground)? Sometimes its almost impossible to hit bosses when they get knockbacked and /oos is on cooldown :(

You just have to get used to it basically, try to cyclone directly on the bosses and not in long cyclones, that usually works for me and i dont have any bad desync problems when doing that

hello, i have once question for the second tree. Is it really need the circle of Influence node (20%) instead of the Champion of the Cause (12%)?

Oh sorry i didnt remember to update that, you should take the cahmpion of the cause yes, it bring you to the necesarry 60% buff aura to get to high rez and its less points, I originally went for influence because of the crit multi on the way but that has been nerfed so its better to just take the champion node now.

I updated it with the normal tree, thanks for noticing!

Is a double legacy BOTR viable with this build?
