Hello there

Before anything I want to thank you for this guide, when I started to play the game all I wanted was to play a gladiator equipped with a shield + sword, it was something taken from me long time ago in wow (gladiator stance) and missed it dearly for years.

I started to follow your build, assigned most of the passive points as your said but at some point I just wanted to be "original" and decided to go with cyclone and a build that, to be honest, I doesn't feel very good. It is extremely tanky but leaving cyclone running for ages against unique and rares is kind of boring.

I want to use bladestorm again, but before following that path I have a question, what are the limits of this build?

It is not like I want to kill sharper or sirius in a flash, or go down to level 500 in the mines, I just want to know when I still start to struggle (if I ever will).

I got my answer after watching some of your youtube videos, I am definitely going back to this build.

Hey angelmanuel27!

I really appreciate the post. I miss the cyclone days with this build. But I really like the switch I made to Bladestorm I made a league or two ago.

I saw you already got the answer that you wanted, and I'm happy to have helped. A couple of tips then...with the new endgame, Attack builds are more dependant on their weapons now. So a good weapon will take you where you need to go and will be the basis of you progress. Also, this build does stand still a bit while "casting" storms. So make sure your Chaos resists are up. This build surprises me more than my others with Chaos damage because of the amount of time I'm in one spot.

Thanks for your encouraging post. Let me know what you think and how things go.

Thanks Royella!

I know you were responding to someone else, but I just wanted to thank you for your kind post. A lot detail and experience went into your post and I really appreciate you taking the time to post it. Thank you.

Also, that's an awesome setup! I really like what you've done. Amazing for SSF! So you're finding Imaple working as you hoped?[/span]

Thanks Wrecker, this is a great build and very fun to play...A little secret? My six year old can play this build with no problems :) Literally the only POE build I can say that about! Yes, I find the lacerate/impale combo works very well. I liked bladestorm but just couldn't say no to that 40% enchant when it hit. I have been focusing on farming watchstones with my totem build and am sitting at 31/32 so I will get back on this build very soon and am looking forward to it. Thanks for the compliments on my gear, every piece was hard earned!

You know sometimes even one button builds are too much effort

Heh hope you don't mind me posting this.

I know I am still levelling and I don't imagine I will be doing this in maps but it still made me laugh when I did this.

Thanks for a great build and I am excited to see how far I can take it.

What is the best sword to use with this build?

Ha ha! I let my kids play my builds too Royella! Fun times. They love picking up garbage though ;). Thanks for the compliment :). I'm glad you (and your family) are enjoying the build.

That's awesome. Thanks for the video! I freaking love the trigger skills. Good job! Post as many videos as you like :).

Thanks for the thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying it so much.

Hey Eazy E 4590!

If you're talking sword, and not axe, you'd be looking at a nicely rolled rare.

- Increased physical damage %
- Increased flat physical damage
- Attack speed

Check out this site (http://poedb.tw/us/mod.php?cn=One%20Hand%20Sword) to see the value of all the tiers that can be rolled.

My build is pretty much similar but instead un boosting hp in the tree I went for 1hand physical damage path I already had 6.2k hp so I felt like it was useless and that 90% physical was more interesting
I havent tried to do the ubers yet but I dont feel like they are gonna be a problem. The build cost me around 90 ex

Hey Jayzus187!

Good job! I hope your build is doing well for you. Which Ubers are you referring to? What did you spend 90Ex on that's a lot of cash! Good for you Money Bags!

I'm still cruising along, just hit level 86 last night. I'm into yellow maps but still doing the lower level ones to find the first watchstones (still need the yellow one, can't buy a map in that corner).

I have 3 of the 6 final labs so still looking to get my final ascension points. I've been mining and even though I'm playing SSF, I've been focusing a lot on the 2 chaos unID'd recipe to build a base of currency for experimenting in standard after the league. I'm around 115 Chaos so far, no Exalted yet, but I'm just getting to true end game.

I had no problem with the Blue conqueror, she went down fast. I'm still looking for gear upgrades and feel like my life is so low, back below 5k after adjusting passives to get Resolute Technique. That said, I don't die much since I've maxed my resists and have Chaos up about 20%.

Still hoping for a big weapon, I'm considering switching back to my other sword as it was much faster attack speed, which I think helped bump the dps despite slightly lower base physical damage.

I think the main difference in my build is I've kept Vaal Double Strike 4-linked as my boss-killer/helper. I can bring up the clones and they chop down the metamorphs while I leap-slam around to leech off the boss packs and then come back to finish them. It's been very smooth so far. Looking forward to getting past the T10 maps and seeing if I can find some better gear with better mods while maintaining my resists.
