Cyclone with the Hypothermia + Herald of Ice w/ Carcass Jack and Dual Axe Legacy Soul taker/Abyssus

Yes I like the changes you made a lot. Only one more thing you could do in my opinion is grab the endurance charge node by Devotion in templar area. You could respec out of two life/evasion nodes at duelist start, and/or the attack speed + accuracy node since you don't need accuracy with Resolute Technique anyways to get it. Or you could just level up two more times, your choice =]

For your question about changing Carcass Jack colors I would say no, and here is why.

Concentrated effect is giving you 58% more damage (multiplicative). At level 20 it will give you 59%, and if you get it to 20% quality and level 20 it will give you 69% more.

Hypothermia would have 100% uptime but at level 20 it only gives 39% more damage and the quality increases chill duration which your axe just does anyways.

The downside of concentrated effect is you lose AOE, but with AOE node in templar section and carcass jack I think you are probably okay?

About hypothermia vs conc effect... i was expecting i will freeze everything around with my hypothermia gem... so its better for crit u saying? chilling doesnt mean i will always crit?


And the abyssus...? It was good idea to taking it out? 40% dmg taken seems op and i dont have this chest which transfer phys dmg to light... and i dont wanna die in high maps...


The main idea is to do every map solo no worry about anything, except maybe Blood magic haha :)

Endurance charge phys reduction is additive without diminishing returns. It is one of the best ways to push yourself into the unkillable zone. Combine it with the fortify buff and 6k+ life and you will be extremely tanky. That's generally how melees survive the highest maps. 6 is a high number of endurance charges but since you can get them I would recommend it.

You have resolute technique so you literally can not crit. Hypothermia will add 10% chance but freezing things will not increase your damage really. Freeze is nice for defense reasons but your build won't be able to do it enough without crit chance for it to be meaningful. Something you can consider since you have herald of ice is to link the Ice Bite support gem with it, you may get frenzy charges for free sometimes but it increases reservation cost to 30% mana.

Other stuff you said:

Yes, Abyssus is bad for your build. Good to remove. Accuracy Attack speed node for duelist is right next to your start spot, it's the first one. High maps you will have trouble with physical reflect and no regen, blood magic you should be okay if you just take off your auras and accept the damage loss. No regen you can run if you drop an aura and run a mana flask probably.
