LEVELING

 Tips for Easy Level (beginner possible)

- From Ivl 1 to 12 use Ground Slam

- Then Sunder until lvl 28

- Now we can use Cyclone as main skill.

 

 Leveling Setup of Links

- From lvl 1 to 12 use Ground Slam supported by Ruthless, Maim and Added Fire Damage - Added Fire Damage and Maim once you reach lvl 8

- Once you reach lvl 12, change Ground Slam for Sunder

- Reaching lvl 18 change Added Fire Damage for Melee Physical Damage

- Reaching lvl 28 change Sunder for Cyclone

- Also change Ruthless for Infused Channeling

- It's also a good time to equip your Edge of Madness

- Reaching lvl 38 change Maim for Increased Area of Effect

- Change it for Concentrated Effect when facing bosses.

- Reaching Ivl 44 you can equip the Unique Sword Rigwald's Charge, and start using the main Cyclone Setup.

- Cyclone – Brutality – Infused Channeling – Impale – Fortify – Increased Area of Effect.

- It's ok if you don't have 6 linked sockets, It's luxury. You will be fine with 4 or 5 while saving PoE Currency to link the last slots.

- Starting on level 4 you can already use Ancestral Protector as Auxiliary Damage for Bosses.

- Support it with Melee Physical Damage – Ruthless – Maim.

- Ruthless when level 8, Melee Physical Damage when level 18.

 

 Auras

- Reaching level 20 activate Summon Skittertbots, Herald of Purity and Blood and Sand.

- By this time you already reached the Mana Leech node on your Passive Tree. But if you are not comfortable with your Mana remove Skitterbots.

- As soon as you get your lvl 3 Enlighten, remove Skitterbots and activate Pride and Dread Banner.
