[3.9] Bashtart's Block, Crit, Impale Cyclone Gladiator [fast dual-wielding, high dps]

I did take Shaper down on my third try. I guess I just had to get those muscle memories working as it relates to dodging his attacks. Working on uber elder next. Love the build! Having a blast delving too

You can get the chance to impale on hit from weapons, skill tree, Dread Banner, Impale Support, watcher‘s for pride aura. I hope I have not forgotten anything.

Hey Bashtart, I've been looking for a build a bit like this for a while now and I'm very interested in doing it! However there's a problem that I'm not going to be able to overcome unless I get pretty lucky (Which I really doubt I will anytime soon)

I see your 6L armor and all the gems in it, however the best I've got are a few 5L's.

Budgetwise, which gem would you suggest I leave out for a 5L? I have a Tabula Rasa, but I've a few decent 5L armor chest pieces, such as Kintsugi, Daresso's Defiance and Belly of the Beast.

Thank you for your time!

I played up to T12 with Tabula Rasa. The body amour I use just did cost 20c by the way... also 5 links should work.

Huh, noted. Good thing I have a Tabula then haha. Thank you for your input. If I decide to go with the 5L route, what gem setup should I look for? (Which gem should I drop, they're all boosting Cyclone really well, and I'm not sure which one would hurt damage the least)

Maybe Pulverise

Hi !

I want to express my gratitude for this build, it's been a blast starting the league with it, and the only thing stopping from kicking the shaper's behind is the lack of map drops ^^

If you have time, I would love to have your input on my items/tree choices.

Right now my priority is finding a decent 6L, bron's lite is certainly interesting. I'm also liking BotB, so why not as a 6L as well.

I might try the Craiceann's if I get the money, plus the gloves, (dropping herald for aspect). A bit less damage, a lot more resilience. Have you considered it ?

After that, getting my rares up to better standards and better weapons, but that's gonna wait for me to be a lot richer.

THanks again,
Cheers ;)

Craicesnn‘s is definitely a good body armour... I looked more into those which give good dps tbh like Bronn‘s.

A question: I'm playing this build and am 86 atm. I'm running into a problem, and that problem is reflected damage. Now I have learned to straight up re-roll maps that directly say damage reflection but at times I am running into it when I don't know it is coming. Lucky for me I also have a witch in the league that is level 83. How are you all dealing with this? It seems to be the one Achilles heel to this build.
