POE Betrayal Raider Cyclone Starter Build - Pure Physical, Cheap, Friendly

POE 3.5 Betrayal Ranger

Cyclone is the core skill in this build. Cyclone is an skill that initiates a spinning series of attacks as the player travels to a target location.

This build is a perfect league starter. You can do it with only about 30 chaos. Kondo's pride is a great interim until you can afford a starforge. This build also has the capability to scale amazingly well. You can dump 100+ exalts and still see substantial results. The only two map mods the build can't do are physical reflect and no leech.

Leveling

While leveling you can use many melee skills such as cleave, frost blades, sunder, wildstrike, and so many more.

One of the main things you should do is not spec into any of the weapon specific nodes until near endgame or when you have a weapon that will last you a long time. Typically you want to remain dynamic weapon choices so you are not locked in.
