[3.21] Reverse Knockback Cyclone Build | Slayer | Crucible | Path of Exile 3.21

Hey guys, shockwave cyclone slayer build is here. Trying the new weapon passive "Knockback direction is reversed with Cyclone" and honestly it's not something you build around it. I keep that mod because i want to showcase otherwise I wouldn't bother to get that.


Build Cost
- Medium Budget: 20-50 div


Shockwave: Shockwave Support is a support gem that causes the supported attack skill to release a Shockwave on hit, dealing attack damage to enemies around the enemy. It causes the supported skill to be restricted to staves and maces.

Mana: "Socketed Attacks have # to Total Mana Cost" mod on body armour solves the mana problem.

Fortify: Overlord (Cluster notable)

Impale Chance:
- Dread Banner (+26%)
- Cane of Kulemak (+38%)
- Skill tree (+30%)
- Gloves (+10%)

Forbidden Flame/Flesh: "Master of Metal" from Champion.

Lethal Pride: Using it for extra damage mods. Look for these mods:
- 5% chance to deal Double Damage
- 20% increased Melee Damage
- +15% to Melee Critical Strike Multiplier
- 30% increased Melee Critical Strike Chance

Leveling: Start with ground slam and keep playing until level 68 then switch to cyclone - shockwave setup. Leveling gems and trees are in the video. (Use a two-handed axe while leveling because staff nodes are way up there and all crit related.)

Leveling Uniques:
- Limbsplit (Lvl 13-33) - Reaper's Pursuit (Lvl 33-68)
- Tabula Rasa
- Karui Ward, Daresso's Salute
- Praxis
- Blackheart x2 (Lvl 1-24) - Le Heup of All
- Seven-League Step
- Goldrim
- Lochtonial Caress
- Belt of the Deceiver
