[2.6] Brainchief Cyclophant - 3x Totem+Cyclone build



Brain Rattler 3x Ancestral Totem + Cyclone build

Hello, i would like to present my build i played for Legacy league. The ide was to utylize Hierophant helm ascendancy as well as Brain Rattler light pen.



The build is based on Acestral Warchief and Cyclone as a main source of damage, Hirophant can set up to 3 totems at once while still beeing able to attack with main skill.

Lets get started:

BiS items:
Spoiler

There is no another helmet then Legacy BoR, its a must have. Hiero ascendancy gives 20% ele pen with skills in your helmet, while non-leg Bor was nerfed to the ground and its not viable, the legacy one is affordable (4-5ex) and very powerful

And finally Tree:


Ascendancy Order:
1. Pursuit Of Faith
2. Ritual of Awakening
3. Iluminated Devotion
4. after Uber lab its up to you if you chose two small mana regen nodes or Power/Endurance one. I don't reccomend using the MoM one (Divine Guidance) - I died a lot becouse of being unable to perform an attack

Pros Cons
Pros:
+ High Damage and easy clear most of maps
+ You can play it in two playstyles
+ Most of content is easy as hell
+ rather cheap
+ 93% Aoe for Cyclone
Cons:
+ Glass cannon
+ Low HP is pain you have to avoid harder content (Core Map/Guardians)
+ Ele reflect maps as well as No Regen is a no-go
+ Life build

Videos:

Coming soon


Leveling:
1. you can level up using Flameblast totem and selfcast but as soon as you get cruel Ascendancy + 2 totems use cyclone and 2h axe + ancestral
2. While lvling, first go for AoE templar nodes, then scion life + Resolute Technique.
3. Then go for duelist life and twohanded dmg nodes and leech
4. Go for Marauder life + mace nodes
5. Buy Briger of Rain first you can use a 4link Ancestral Warchief with Brain Rattler as well, its a powerfull weapon

Alternative:
Spoiler
This combination is nice but it does not fit the idea, the Raider is much better fo Ngamahu then templar

Leveling:

I do not understand "use cyclone and 2h axe"...." I'm not supposed to use Brain rattler? why 2h axe and not the 2h mace. Ty. Great guide :D
