Enhance gives 40% aoe radius in the axe, it's quite a bit, but yes, faster attacks is just as good.

This build is all about optimizing cyclone aoe, that's why i use every advantage this axe has in that regard, i see it as the pure way to use the axe, plus if you wanted max tooltip you would be going for a crit weapon and a completely different route.

When i originally made it, i just created a lolbuild and threw all aoe increases and expected no good result, yet it turned out it raped things without issues, gigantic areas at once. I fell in love. That's why i will not sacrifice any big range increases.

I farm with only 1 damage support in mf gear and im farming all maps, most of the time 75+ maps like that, and it's not feeling the slow in doing so either. The true value of increased aoe with cyclone is hard to quantify, but it's generally grossly underestimated, plus i know no other skills that benefit nearly as much as cyclone does.

It can reach an area that's.. well just off the top of my mind it was an area 24 or 28 times larger than the base area of a 2h axe cyclone... this build it really feeds of stacking aoe increases.

But yea, you can do faster attacks its roughly equal, it's too hard to me to quantify to know the perfect answer, for me it feels far better playing with larger aoe.
