Cebrux's Spin 2 Win Guide for Beginners (Resolute Technique Cyclone)

Thanks! I will actually post a Marauder Spin 2 Win build in the near future for you. Stay tuned :D

Your final 120 point build (I highly suggest you post an 80-100 point one instead) has a broken link.

As far as endgame cyclone goes, I would highly recommend respeccing out of Blood Magic, using a Blood Magic gem, and running 3-4 auras off your mana.

Thanks Acrosis, I'll go fix the link right now.

As to speccing out of Blood Magic, is it simply for the Auras? Seems like a good idea if so.

Also, what level would you suggest doing so? Thanks!

Yes, speccing out of Blood Magic will let you run the defensive and offensive auras off your mana. You can then transition into a 7 aura build if you put 2 points in mana reservation nodes (there are 2 right near duelist start). So you can run Wrath, Grace and Anger off HP and Purity, Determination, Hatred and Haste/Vitality off mana.

You can do this the moment you get Blood Magic gems, or after you get a 4/5L, preferably a 5L.

Thanks for the input Acrosis, I will be testing this out tonight, and update the guide tomorrow with the results. Your advice is going to help me get this build into end game properly.

I was wondering if I should drop Blood Magic eventually, and now I know. Thanks again, I will update with the results so others can benefit!

EDIT: Would you still run the Arcane Efficiency node with the 2 smaller Reduced Mana Cost nodes? Also what Flasks would you run? Thanks.

I don't take that node because it is not worth the point investment. Instead, you could get quality on Concentrated Effect.

Would like to have a Sapping of Staunching and a Bubbling of Warding instead, but I can't roll a Sapping of Staunching. xD
I also do not use Vaal Pact, so you would probably run with 2 Quicksilvers and 3 Granites or vice versa.

Just looking through your passives, I would instead recommend something more like this. I used 100 points but Inner Force shouldn't really be taken until later levels (70+).

From this base, you can spec into specific two-handed nodes (since weapon choice can be limited) and finish off the life nodes, get that 1% leech node, get Executioner, or the 6% attack speed at the start of the Duelist area.
Lots of options for the last few points.
If you prefer Vaal Pact, you can also pick that up easily.

You are a beast Acrosis, I will further update this guide to reflect the great late game build advice, something I lacked because I'm not past level 70 yet.

EDIT: I'm curious to know what support gems you are running for Cyclone exactly. Also I assume that since you don't take the Unwavering Stance Keystone, you don't even bother with Double Strike, simply Cycloning at all times? NEVER STOP SPINNING. I can respect that.

No problem really, I've been looking into maybe experimenting with 2h cyclone as well (I am currently playing unarmed cyclone) so I already had the 'default' passive options.
My 6L is currently Cyclone + Blood Magic + Faster Attacks + Melee Physical Damage + Concentrated Effect + Added Fire Damage/Life Leech.
I was using Infernal Blow, but my Cyclone has enough leech to sustain itself even against one target so I dropped it in favour of using a curse.

Nice, I was also wondering your feelings on Culling Strike supporting cyclone.

Not a fan of Culling Strike because another hit from Cyclone would finish off any mobs under 10% hp anyways, except for bosses, but even then it saves maybe only 2 seconds, whereas it is a pretty big DPS loss.
