Do you think its worth dropping Lightpoacher if we don't run any of the supporting gems for it? Was thinkin about grabbing CWDT + IC.



Lightpoacher is gonna be strong either way, but you have more reason to drop it if you drop all supports for it. It's sort of like wasted potential? So at that point I'd personally drop it, but if you feel like it's doing a good job despite not being supported keep that going.
Makes sense. For now, pretty happy with it and Volley + GMP, and running Ancestral Protector in the 3rd socket. Thanks!
Why Haemophilia for cyclone?
I think I've got my tree sorted out. If I just pick up the rest of the life nodes by Juggernaut and by Thick Skin, that's additional 12% health with no pathing. I had an extra Dex node by Panther selected I didn't need as well.

This is what I am shooting for at 90:

Will have me at about 4.5k health with no gear adjustments, which can be better obviously. Also gives me 2 additional slots for two more abyssal jewels.

Any critique is welcome. Thank you so much for helping me out! I am really enjoying this build. Right now I am mowing down T6-T8 pretty easily.

What do you think is a better enchantment, +Reave dmg or +Reave radius?

Sorry, a lot busier than expected lately.

Radius imo.

No Prob! Happy new year!

Making great progress on this character. Burning t10/t11 pretty easily, haven't tried higher yet (thanks drops!). Found this offhand:



Not the best, but also not the worst. A decent upgrade over Death's Hand according to PoB.

Thought about recording a video of a t12 clear or something, since you have a lot of Cyclone videos and thought an example of the duel-wield reave would be nice.

Really enjoying it. The new gore herald effect is super satisfying with this build and clearing is pretty fast.

Super glad it's working out well for you, I'd include a video of that and credit you if you do record!
Hey, thanks for the guide, you make me want to replay PoE :)

I'm currently lvl 60, I hesitate between Gladiator Raeve or Slayer Cyclone, there is a huge difference between these two in term of dps. Gladiator Raeve seems to be less powerful than the cyclone, can I trust your dps tooltips ? It's just a difference of gameplay or there is really a difference in DPS ??

Thanks buddy :)

It's a difference in gameplay mostly. Clear-speed isn't much different, Reave is probably safer of the two skills because the knockback becomes very strong with it and if you're at 8 stacks you can kill bosses from a mile away. Reave is very nice and comfortable, but Cyclone is naturally an extremely consistent build. It has no real wind-up but for Reave you need to charge up your stacks.

Slayer Reave is also an option! The tooltips are indeed different, but when it comes to clearing maps it's not a huge deal.
