[2.6] TankyTwirl - PhysSpell CoC Cyclone

No Problem i don´t mind answering Questions :)

But no.. you can´t use Cybil's Paw.. you need a Vagan Dagger or at least a Dagger with good Crit Chance... Cybil's is a Caster Weapon, this build is cast on crit, we use attacks to cast spells so we need a weapon with high local crit stats.

Hm, I was thinking of using a dagger with high crit and Cybil's paw. Does this not work? Or is the shield too important?

Also, with your gear, what is the crit chance on cyclone? :)

I guess my question is whether or not its worth it to run double daggers?

This is a Hybrid or Low Life build. The shield is VERY important, we get lots of ES from the shield.


Also Cyclone alternates Weapons when you dualwield, using a cybils would basicly cut your crit chance in half because every second hit would be with Cybils.

Using a second dagger does not provide much benefit at all, we would get little attack speed but as we are cyclone we can jsut substitute attack speed by movement speed by using a quicksilver flask.

Would be not worth it at all to lose so much ES and block chance for some attackspeed.

Got it :) Went and bought a shield instead. I don't have that much currency as a new player, but I was given "Mark of the Doubting Knight Platinum Kris". Would I be able to use this as the main dagger? (I know it doesn't have the Vagan effect, but poor...)

From what I understand what you said, attack speed doesn't affect Cyclone too much? So the detrimental -10% attack speed shouldn't be too much of a problem, right?

The local Crit is important. Attack speed isn´t THAT important but still good.

Every Cheap dagger with just 9% Crit and 1.5-1.7 Attacks per second will perform much much better than a Mark of the doubting knight.


To start of i would just buy a bricked Vagan Dagger and craft Crit chance on it, that is all you need.

I am using such a Dagger in most of the Videos, i upgraded to a multi mod dagger only when i was like lvl 90.

Thank you very much :) How are the boss fights? I'm still currently doing merciless, but I find that at ~50% critchance, I still don't get bladefall consistently against bosses and take a long time to beat them.

50% with Charges or without Charges?
Using a Vagan Dagger or a normal Dagger?

50% without charges and Vagan dagger should be fine... with charges and Vagan dagger it should be okish and if its with charges and no vagan dagger... its much to low.

For bosses its also good to use a Diamond Flask and its important to Cyclone very short, holding the curser just a little bit infront of your feet. Also use flicker during the fight to refresh your Fortify.

Check your Spells to see if they are on the right level, in merciless you level faster then your spells: you could use a lvl 19 Bladefall but your Spell is only around lvl 17. If thats the case try to buy a higher level one. This league lvl 19 and 20 Spells are pretty cheap.

I'm running a similar build to yours, except i'm a witch base with mings heart and and a couple of different nodes.

My current stats are:

89% cyclone crit + vagan dagger
46% crit with bladefall 56% with ek
4,6k average on ek and 5,6k on bladefall
2k life
max res and max chaos res
6k es

never done aziri before(on hc) do you think my character is ready dps-wise as well as tanky enough for a safe margin? or should i level up my gems more? (lvl 19 gems) also missing a couple of damage nodes.

50% without charges and Vagan dagger should be fine... with charges and Vagan dagger it should be okish and if its with charges and no vagan dagger... its much to low.

Thanks! Problem is it just costs so much :(

Will I be able to progress through merciless at all without a Vagan dagger? Chilling in Act 3 right now.

EDIT -

Just picked up a Vagan dagger, and you're right - it's working a lot better now! Without charges but with Ice Golem, I get ~64% crit chance on cyclone :) (Got it with the right colours, so I got the CwDT working, too). Can you explain how Immortal Call works? Seems like it always lasts around ~1s even though I have a couple of endurance charges when it pops.

Thanks once again!

@Ready_Player_1
64% without charges seems like really good... guess you bougth a Kris base?
IC is allways very short, its mostly there to protect you from high bursts and reflect damage.

@polo2005

statwise it should be no problem, just learn alot about the figth. Watch my video with budget gear atziri i talk a lot about stuff that is important to know, what flasks to use.

best thing is to watch this and some others and if you feel like you have questions about a specific part of the figth after that feel free to ask again.
