Followed the guide and having a blast.

Currently done with the "overpowered" and aiming for the "god tier" i'm still unsure about the gem setup. Is the guide still up to date on this matter ?

TY for the hardwork though !

We should have a discussion about diamond flasks, mobility and APS with cyclone.

Cyclone as a clear speed delivery mechanism in this build is arguably relatively slow because of the animation lock, and lack of attack speed syngery with leap slam or shield charge.

There is an argument to actually go for double the respective aps break points and not use a diamond flask, and to keep crit chance in the 70% area.

The argument being that:
- hitting twice as quickly gives us a synthetic diamond flask (your crit is essentially lucky if you get two bites of the cherry)
- movement skills and cyclone in general will feel A LOT faster and smoother
- you drop the diamond flask and can run both, say, wise oak and atziri flask
- if you run unnatural instinct and might of the meek, you get a chunk of ias from the tree (+23%)
- you have to spend more points on attack speed in jewels/tree

Still, worth a discussion. PoB will suggest it doesn't make sense, because PoB doesn't take into account mobility (and hence survivability v uber etc) and now will it inherently see the "crit chance is lucky" impact of running at 2x the aps breakpoints.

I think if this is an idea that appeals, then realistically one should just use blade flurry instead of cyclone though.

So I notice that the PoB and linked skill tree for 98 are quite different on the left side. Which one should I be following?

Overpowered? God tier?? Where is the info about that? What am I missing? Do I need to read this whole thread??

Enfeeble Curse Effect (#1 for 99% of cases and very cheap to get too!

sure about that ? dont know if your guide is responsible for that, but the cheapest starkonjas with enfeeble enchant are at 6ex at the moment.

other than that im curious about testing this build out. got about 20ex to spend, for which version should i go starting from the ground (besides an already leveled 93 assassin) ?
