🧪 EXPERIMENTAL Cyclone + Discharge Setup | Early Showcase

Hey everyone! In this video, I’m showcasing the current state of a new experimental build I’ve been working on — a Cyclone + Cast on Crit setup triggering Discharge.

The idea is to keep it functional without going crazy on the budget. I’m trying to stay under 200 divines, and right now the build is sitting around 150. It’s still very much a work in progress, but I wanted to share what’s working, what needs fixing, and hopefully get some feedback from you guys!

This is not a guide — it’s more of a tech test and concept showcase.

🔧 What we cover in the video:

Core mechanic: Cyclone → CoC → Discharge

Power Charge sustain with Precursor’s Emblem rings

Gem setup, aura layering, and gear choices

Elementalist ascendancy and tree overview

Mercenary aura combo: Wrath + Zealotry

Defensive strength vs. current offensive weaknesses

Where improvements are needed (crit chance, charge consistency)
