Hey, thanks for the build, first time I actually stick to one untill cruel and almost merciless, kinda a newbie so apologies if I'll ask something silly.

I was wondering: I am leveling with a rigwald's charge, nothing great, and I'm around lvl 56 in talisman SC, what would be the easiest to gear version? Mace, sword or axe?

I ask because I never traded in poe seriously and I never have gone past 10-15c if even that much, so I'm not sure I can afford to make a passive tree and buy an expensive weapon only to find that maybe antoher choice was cheaper...

Hopefully isn't too much of a noob question, I kinda still haven't learned how to get rich in the game so I'm worried I'll choose axe and then find a gg mace for cheap and can't switch easily. I know that regrets aren't that expensive but still, wanted to make the build to farm currency not to drain it =P

Thanks anyway, I'll keep putting points in the basic outline right now but any help deciding which fork of the build to use would be awesome :)

I suggest purchasing a Kaom's Primacy. They are relatively cheap, can be used at lv58 and can last you comfortably into the 80's. The cost in regrets to switch between the different passive tree variations (encase you found a better weapon) is 15 passive points maximum; easy to afford not counting the already 20+ refunds you get from leveling to merciless.

Thanks, just bought one and it is awesome indeed :) one last thing I was wondering: for SC you suggest mana or bloodmagic keystone for cyclone? Kinda wasn't sure reading the guide, I am running with bloodmagic gem right now.

So I have been playing around with Vaal Lightning Strike as people are saying good things about it.

Right now I have it linked to multi-strike, melee physical, and WED. I cannot figure out if it is even doing anything.

When I use it, I see a few strikes of lightning come down all in one place, and that's it. The gem description talks about a duration, but I can see no buff icon. Is it buffing my dps? Other than some one shot damage to the target I dont see anything else happening.

So mostly its just a single target dps boost since axe/swords cant run vaal ground slam, it places an electric charge on the enemy which has a duration and arcs out of him; that's the aoe duration aspect of it.

Your weapon is 500pdps which is fine but upgrading it will offer the biggest boost to your performance, If you can afford it or patiently save for a disfavour do it. Aside from that grabbing a Rumi's and taste is great but are more a luxury than necessity. Most the rest of your gear looks solid, 6l the coil eventually and work on gem qualities and jewels.
