[2.1] Dbum's Blade Vortex SuperTank [Block, MoM, EB, GR, Cybil's] HC Viable **Video Added**

@Alex, From what I've seen, each blade hits twice per second (source: https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/3wia7k/day_1_blade_vortex_action_let_it_rip/)

The biggest problem with this build is thorns, which holds it back from uber viability, since at 50 blades you're thorns-ing yourself 100 times per second.

Thanks for info. That explains a lot xD

About the Atziri, aren't thorns only a problem if you attack dual striker when he is on fire ? Shouldn't you be able to attack inbetween these stages? It seem more like it is a problem to whirl out at good time and then whirl in again. Something like purity aura and ruby flask should also help, since it is fire based damage, right ?

Yup. Just makes it more of a pain than a lot of other builds. And I haven't done the fight uber yet with this build, so I can't really speak for that. I just know it's quite a bit more difficult.
Nice build mate, I will definitely try this build.

Can you add a video? Because I have never used "Mind over Matter" nor "Eldritch battery" so I just wanna see how this works.

By the way my Enlighten is lvl 2, will it work? or should I have to sacrifice Herald of ice?

Peace out
how is the leech with blade vortex?

Well, if we assume we want to at least get to the 20% leeching cap I think we are here. Just to quote some:

155 dex for Level 20 Vortex is a pain. Also I finally bothered to calculate my DPS. I'm sitting at 500-ish per blade with Tempest Shield and 3 Frenzies up, coming out to ~50k DPS, and .14 cast time (7 seconds to max blades). This is with 18/0 CD and 18/0 BV, so I'm actually expecting to get decently close to my peak incinerate DPS with a similar level of gems, plus better flask scaling.

@dbum I'd suggest throwing in a Vaal Haste somewhere, it's super good in this build, and the duration nodes are super nice for it.

Leveling BVs is a pain, but I hope to have a level 20 one to test with soon, and hoping to get some with 20% quality ASAP. Controlled Destruction is a huge overperformer as well, and I'd love to get it to 20/20 at least. I think that at a similar level of optimization


With better gems and gear people get to ~90K supposedly. But being above 50k is something have for 100%. Since people are starting to complain about dex I think my tree might be a bit more optimized but it also lacks life and STR more so I am not fully sure:

I think this tree might be better, but I'm not sure. It also puts us right in line to pick up another Frenzy Charge, as well as being right by Druidic Rite, which I think is worth it (Taste of Hate+Atziri's Promise up nearly double this build's DPS). For dex, I've gotten by with a few Dex jewels, but it also shouldn't be hard to grab a piece of gear with a lot of Dex on it, either.

To be honest I was not considering Druidic Rite while designing this tree version but it might not be a bad idea if you have more than one of these flasks.

I was just thinking about getting more Endurance and Frenzy charges, some dex, and coupling it with this gloves:
http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Surgebinders
If you get one endurance from the bandits, one from belt and one from the tree, and then get frenzies from the tree we have 6 frenzy charge and 6 endurance giving us nice mitigation, cast speed and dmg boost from charges and gloves.

I will reroll at some point because I really enjoy Talisman league, but I will test some things on Standard for a few days before going back since I have the gear that I would want for this build.
