Why you don't use curse - Frostbite? Enemies have less cold resistance and you have more chance to freeze them. I think is very useful curse in this build.

Frostbite is a choice sure. But I prefer to use Assassin's Mark

Which bandits should i help?

Normal: Help Oak - Since it's a HP build
Cruel: Kill all for skill point
Merciless: Help Alira for the 7th Power Charge

so you wont even run stuff like herald of ice etc? like literally only clarity? whats the weapon choice that we should look for ? any notable uniques except cloak of defiance?

Herald of Ice is new to me, don't know it. only just seen a little on YouTube. It might be a good addition to the setup. Will have to try. But primarily since Cloak of Defiance gives you MoM I like to reserve my mana for that purpose.

Weapon choice.. nothing specific. you can use maces or wands it doesn't matter.
You should focus on getting Projectile Speed, Spell Power and Spell Crit on your weapon. If you can find a good buy with Cast Speed aswell then go for it.

The Prophecy Wand would be really nice for end-game. But since I am no where near end-game yet I'll let that stick to a feint dream.

You guys should try spell echo in the build its insane or is there a reason why we shouldn't run it.

I'm running a very similar build, so I can point a few errors in yours.

1. Your tree is planned for 120 points (the "Updated Tree 25/08" is 121!). Since you help bandits twice, you can only spend 118 points.

2. There's some bad pathing in your tree.







3. If you start as Witch, you can get 40% mana regen in 1 point instead of 20% mana regen & 10% mana for 2 points:



4. You're making a BIG mistake skipping Herald Of Ice. Try it, you'll be amazed.

5. Taking Scion Life Wheel instead of Templar Life nodes looks better (didn't counted it, though).

It's been asked prior to your post.
I haven't tried Spell Echo. But when I get my hands on it I will surely give it a try.
I'll update the Gem Setup with Spell Echo included.

Thnx for the advice :)

This is incredible stuff :)
I love your input and I've updated this threads build.
1: Don't know why the 25/08 build had 121 points, mistake from my side somewhere. the new build is 118 points.

2: I love it !

3: Great point, my next char for FP will be a Witch instead.

4: Haven't found Herald of Ice yet. When I do I will surely give it a try.

5: Have to be seen at some point.

Thnx a lot for your valuable info.. I've updated the talent tree's, the progression, the gem setup. It's really great with all these inputs.

nice thanks for info, so whats your gear/gems that you run? also what single target spell are we supposed to run to kill map bosses ? is freeze pulse alone enough ? ice spear mb?

i am also working on this build idea.. im currently lvl 43 in cruel on my first rampage hero..
i ended up buying a cheap leveling wand to help out a bit..

http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Driftwood_Wand

still haven't come across a herald of ice.. or an echo gem yet.. once i have those, i think the damage will skyrocket even more.. with just fp/pcoc/lmp im doing just fine..

(edit)reflect packs currently wreck me... looks like im going to need to try the fire trap/freeze mine setup to counter this..

currently chill, frozen, and stun effects hit rather hard.. but potions will do to dispel these things..

so far lots of fun and haven't yet found myself stuck or under powered.. leveling along smoothly...

Try using a lvl 1 FP gem instead of the lvl'ed one.
It should work ok
