Cyclone/Multistrike is amazing ( oh, but the desync)
" Brian, I'd really like to understand how you destroy end game content with those stats as a melee character? I'm not trying to troll here, I'm just wondering what I'm missing. As far as I've experienced, you can easily get one shot with those stats. I guess if you're playing Standard or Anarchy, that's fine... but if you're not into dying, I don't see how melee is viable at end-game. |

Multistrike is amazing indeed, but once you try with movement skills like cyclone, flicker strike and leap slam it turns into MUlTIDESYNC support gem.

I got bored waiting for The Last of Us to download on my ps3, so I decided to try out cyclone on my 1H/shield IB mara running lunaris 2/3/piety.
It actually seemed like I killed faster using cyclone than I do with IB. I was desyncing a lot, but that's been happening today, probably because I'm downloading a 27gb game at the moment. Using cyclone is kind of fun. Gear:

Not sure how it would do in 70+ maps. |

Giving up on the Multistrike/Cyclone combo... Super powerful and so easy to clear maps that it should be a build for beginners, but the desync is just too much. I will come back to it after servers are more reliable. It is stil a viable option for leveling. No real problems until about merc act 2. Just really sad because it was so damn destructive and such a blast.

I have a lvl 62 duelist using multi/cyclone with 2 handed swords. Desyncs like he'll, but is really fun. Multi helps mitigate the blood magic cost by giving you three runs per cast.
I had Vaal Pact for a while, and when desync isn't such a huge factor I will go back to it. For now being able to use a health flask is a life saver. One thing, if you turn on the new life bars over monsters, you can almost instantly tell wen you're out of sync because the bars only appear when a monster takes damage. If you whirl into a group and no life bars show up, you know you've desynced and can /oos before you get past the point of no return. I highly recommend it if you haven't turned them on yet.

" Yeah I noticed that too, but it just drives me crazy. I am into this incredible groove in a mob to mob Multistrike madhouse and then, "hey what happened? Why is everyone standing around and where's the strike sounds and wtf, what's happening to my health globe" but up until that the ride is nice and smooth like a Cadillac.

" I seriously think that the tool tip dps for cyclone is incorrect. Mine says 6.3k, but it feels much much higher. I shred right through packs like butter. IGN: Beardedwizzard

I know same here
desync a lot but without Multistrike is slower and has not enough power in 6 char group but not so much desync same is about the Life on hits. I use resolute technique but looks like i hit 2 or 3 times but mops all around and doesnt take damage i got attackspeed of 7 or 8 hits in a sec. Multistrike out everytime Hit. same in life on hit why its so slow lvl.18 life gain on hit show 42 LpH but with multistrike/cyclone even without multistrike gain 18 or 26 on Hit????? k now i use life leech witout Bloodmagic. But with Dsync not su much like with Multistrike or Mellee splash but i hit plz Fix. The one and only thing is better in D3 Sync/Performence works. Act. Build (5L Chest) Cayclone + Fire Damage + Melle Phsical Damage + Life Leech + Quantity Old. Build (5Lchest) Cayclone + Multistrike + Mellee Phsical Damage + Melee Splash + Life on Hit plz any body show me a Youtube Video without desync and say it never happens try that build in 6char Group Duellist Lvl 79 softcore ps:But hope never die Última edição por EL737 em 20 de jun de 2013 21:54:39
