|3.8][Budget] BeyBlade Tank - 1 million + Facebreaker Cyclone DPS



====================================
Currently playing a Hollow Palm build, I have something like 4-5 million DPS, check my character if you're interested !
====================================



This build allows you to clear all the content with a very cheap stuff.

Cyclone has been nerfed with 3.8, so I now use impale to get about the same dps as the 3.7 version without loosing too much tankyness.

I have currently around 1.2 million DPS on Shaper with my stuff (without counting counter-attacks DPS).

Gear :



3.8 gear changes :

- The -15 mana cost on the chest is MANDATORY, otherwise you will struggle with mana
- I now use The Surrender bescause of the Reckoning gem nerf. With a level 30 one, the nerf is not so bad, you still one-shot white packs when you block.
- You can try to get a Helmet with the mod Nearby enemies take 9% increased physical damage, I don't have one because I'm too lazy to replace my blood rage enchant or to buy fossils ^^
- The 7% additional chances to block will get you to 72% chances to block in hideout, it's not mandatory but it will get you to 79% block anytime you get damaged thanks to the ascendancy. You will still be able to get to 79% chances to block on packs since you gain 1% chances to block for each hit blocked in the past 10 seconds
- Then life on hit on amulet and the -15 mana cost on the chest will allow you to No leech maps
- You can replace the belt with a good rare belt (a stygian with a good jewel or an elder rustic sash belt with a lot of life) if you have a problem getting your elemental resistances

Pros :
- Good clearspeed
- Tanky
- Delve-friendly (see video)
- Can do all content
- Easy gearing choice since there is a lot of resist in the tree
- Up to 79% Attack & Spell block
- Max Resistances : 77/76/76
- Can do any map except physical reflect

Cons :
- Can't do Physical reflect maps

Stats :
- DPS on shaper : 1 million +
- Life : 5500 +
- Block : 70% +
- Movement speed : up to 70%

Leveling :

From level 1 to 15 :

From level 16 to 27 :
Spoiler
Get Facebreaker gloves and use the Infernal blow skill. Also get the counter-attacks skills Riposte and Reckoning. Remember to use a shield and no weapon when you equip Facebreaker (deactivate Auto-equip option or else you won't be able to keep the weapon slot empty)

From level 28 to 68 :



Gear stat priority :
- Rings : flat physical damage > life > resists > -X mana cost to skill
- Amulet : flat physical damage > life > resists > melee range (craft)
- Boots : Movement speed > life > resists
- Shield : Gain charges on block > Recover X% life on block > % chances to block > life > resists
- Belt (if no Meginord) : life > resists
- Helmet (if no abyssus) : life > resists > melee range (craft)
- Body armour (if no Bronn's Lithe) : life > resists > physical damage reduction

Bandits : Kill all

Pantheon : Soul of Lunaris & Soul of Gruthkul

Ascendancy :

- 2 points : Arena Challenger (good for fast leveling)
- 4 points : Painforged
- 6 points : Versatile Combatant
- 8 points : if Abyssus version go for Outmatch and Outlast, else go for Violent Retaliation

PATH OF BUILDING DOESN'T COUNT IMPALE DPS !
Your real DPS with this build when you count impale is a little bit more than 2 times the DPS shown in POB, so just DOUBLE THE DPS SHOWN IN POB TO KNOW YOUR REAL DPS :)

Here are the impale stats if you want to do the maths yourself :
- Chances to impale : 100% (40% from support gem + 20% from dread banner + 40% from tree)
- Chances to hit : 100% (Resolute technique)
- Impale effect : +110% (59% from support gem + around 21% from dread banner + 30% from tree)
- Impale max stacks : 5 (Base amount, no change)

Great guide, i was expecting something like this that uses both block skills to deal damage. Good job.

Also wouldn't using war banner would be good since it makes enemies take more physical damage even though we dont need accuracy? We can put herald of purity, pride, blood and sand into one gear with enlighten, we can put both riposte and reckoning into one gear with melee physical and brutality(we can use silver flask for onslaught).

This way we can use war banner and will obtain another socket space.

Also can you send your current pob so we can check stuff? Damage seems very low on the one you sent.

You can check my progress by importing my character if you want, it will be always up to date this way :)

Account name : mayo
Character name : MayoBeyblade
Here is my current POB : https://pastebin.com/iTfWjbUK

Be sure to check Frenzy, Endurance & Challenger charges and Fortify, I am actually around 600k+ DPS

You might have look the cyclones that are leveling in my off hands, you have to check the real Cyclone setup by selecting Vaal Cyclone and then Cyclone on the left

About the gems, yeah there are several setups possible. I chose this one beacause I wanted to max out the counter attacks DPS and still get onslaught proc, but you can adapt it :)
You could add something like steelskin + tempest shield on a Cast when damage taken setup for example to get more defence, or like you said use and enlighten and add war banner.

I'm really interested in how people will adapt this to their gameplay :)

What would you consider (Besides rares) to be all the BiS item's for this build? I am looking for this exact build but not in league. I have some 999% FB's in standard I want to take advantage of and this is exactly what I was looking for. Also, why not Champion ascendency for Impale? The flat damage on that seems pretty OG for FB's.

Yep champion is the best DPS output for cyclone facebreaker, but I like the spellblock too much :p

The bis items are :

- Bronn's Lithe : https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Bronn%27s_Lithe
- Abyssus : https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Abyssus
- Great Old One's Ward : https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Great_Old_One%27s_Ward

If you use those 3 items you can reach 1 million DPS, and if you go CHampion with impale you could reach some crazy amounts :p But I prefer to have a tanky build with high attack & spell block.

I'm currently trying to get a bronn's lithe to replace Abyssus, it's nearly the same DPS output and you get rid of the 40% increased damage of the abyssus. But it's a full Evasion armor, so you need some money to get 5 off colors :p
