What’s the usual strat for unlocking legion mobs? Rush to the edges to look for generals right after activation, chests, and anything else along the way?

I usually like starting on the edge or with my back to a wall, mostly just so I only have to move one direction, rather than starting in the middle, running all the way to one side and backtracking. I guess that also means you start where most of the rares/generals are, though I hadn't thought about that.

I'm also playing ED/Contagion though so I'm already cheating lol

Yea I’ve been activating and trying to leap slam my way to the corner but I’ve only recently made it to maps and have enough damage to sufficiently activate even rated consistently let alone generals

im using spectral throw. i typically activate, backtrack a bit, throw out projectiles both directions, then go back forward past the legion thing and start throwing them out everywhere

if it's high density ill just try to hit everything. but i mostly keep a look out for chests

Are there cyclone builds that don't cost an arm and leg this league? The prices of high pdps weapons are pretty insane.

I bet you can get pretty far with an Oro's? But I haven't tried it myself, so maybe there's something that keeps it from being good.

I took the axe nodes though, there's a pretty big difference between disfavor and everything else. Maybe the best thing to do is to use a 6L in chest instead of Kaom's.

I'll probably give a cyclone character a shot soon just to see what the hypes about, and for some one button ezpz. Flicker still sounds busted, crashing and shit, so meme dreams are dead. The demand for all the phys/cyclone shit right now means I need to save up quite a bit more cash still though lol.

I tested the cyclone build on standard with a 6L disfavor, Kaom's, and devoto's. The playstyle is super easy, it cleared shaper/elder very fast without maxed gems. I think for other weapon builds, you can also spec it to get a massive cyclone aoe that goes off the screen, should be fun with the new legion mechanic.

The key is to get -8/9 mana cost of skills on a ring, which makes cyclone free. With insanity essense crafted gloves, you can even bind leap slam on left click for easy mode farming.

Yeah I was thinking Disfavour + Kaom's for super faceroll but I'll need to start saving up quite a bit instead of investing in this current char any more lol. I'm already doing fine in red maps with ED/Contagion so I'd only be rerolling for the fun of it, while it's hot, and it'd be way less work as far as playstyle goes.

It'd probably be smarter just to build a dedicated boss killer now that I can farm/sustain T16s. BF Zerker seems simple, idk. ED Trickster can boss just fine, but it doesn't feel super efficient with my current gear, and dying is still a risk.

Mostly I just enjoy rerolling and mixing it up once in a while every league, but playing ED Trickster with Legion specifically has me insanely spoiled so whatever I do needs to be with a specific purpose or motivation, since a general reroll will just feel worse than what I've already invested in. For Cyclone it would be for the braindead lulz, especially with investment. For anything else it'd need to be for boss killing.

Cyclone is pretty strong right now, don't think it would be too unpleasant to pick up a cheap 2h axe (kaom's primacy, hezmana's bloodlust, sinvicta's mettle, or even just a rare) and farm your way to a disfavor.

Cheap cyclone is facebreakers (also possibly max DPS) but you will be sad about your AOE

Weapon-wise, The way the gem gives flat, you don't need that high pdps to feel good as long as your weapon is very fast. And preferably high Crit. The rage gem also alleviates low-damage weapon concerns very nicely at the cost of forcing your playstyle a bit

I may just kill two birds with one stone and level berserker cyclone to ~90 just to try it out and then switch to BF or something else single target for bossing. Or just keep cyclone if I can juice the dps and enjoy it. I need to try blitz and leap slam and shit too so this covers lots of 3.7 things I want to do.

Dumb question but is there a good reason to go 2H other than a) your 6L for Kaom's chest option, or b) there's a particular 2H like Disfavour or Starforge that you're building around?

If you're not going for Kaom's or any of the big 2H uniques, dual 1H seems way better still.

Taking a break from my masochistic league starter (which is stuck a little in early red maps) and up to A5 with a staff-based Gladiator cycloner - part of it's rolling with twink gear but it's so smooth to play, though there's summoner-levels of button-drought now between banners/stances/Berserk/Blood Rage/normal'n'Vaal Ancestral Warchief/etc.

This is like exactly what I want to avoid by just throwing enough currency at it lmao. I want to spin to win and that's it. If I wanted to work I'd just keep playing Trickster.

So I just did monster level 83 mastermind and unveiled +2 socketed support on one of the rares she dropped. But on my bench I only have "unlocked" socketed support +1 and am about "40% experience" into unlocking +2 down in the grey unlocked area. A multimod bow is the one thing I've been chasing to upgrade this character lol, this was my first mastermind.

So if that isn't a sign to fuck off with ED and reroll something more fun idk what is. Didn't know that's how it worked as far as veiled mod progress..

I've noticed a lot of people putting Immortal Call and/or Molten Shell on CWDT still. I'm sure they're aware of the changes/buffs, but just don't have the room for it lol

I'm trying to get it down to just main skill + warchief + leap slam + blood rage + berserk. Forget vaal skills, put molten shell or immo call on CWDT, banners zzzzz. Especially since stance switching between sand and blood probably still helps for bosses? Way too many actives lmao

Edit: well wait... Does switching to blood ever really matter for cyclone? Or does the dps difference from throwing down a banner probably outweigh it? It's hard for me to tell right now, I've never really used banners before.

I'd really like just Cyclone + Leap Slam + Warchief + Blood Range + Berserk + stance switch. Anything beyond that will be really hard to fit, but if you never need to switch out of sand stance then I can pinch something else in

Going from 5 less to 11 more is a lot of damage, but the aoe is handy in a lot of circumstances anyway. I switch for unlocking legion rares.
Nothing is impossible, only some things for some people.

Isnt that how it works with literally every multi ranked veiled mod? Unveiling a higher rank gives progress for unlocking, but it doesnt automatically unlock the high rank.

I'm wondering what character I want to create as a 2nd char for bossing/running T16 as well, my first one is also ED/contagion trickster. Is Cospri's CoC Ice Nova still playable in 3.7? Or something like CwC Cyclone with BV? :>
Maybe I'll actually do Blade Flurry though. Never played anything like that and afaik it just braindead kills uber elder etc?
