[1.3] LVL84 FoxTactic's Arctic Fire Nova "Torment L 20000dps"



yes lvling with ice nova aint the best thing, Ice nova is better late game. So for lvling i'd prob use what i find, I used Lightning tendrils, and lmp freeze pulse. Pretty much what i found. But ill write lvling down later when i write the build, ill think of something nice.

Going to change a few things in the passive tree aswell which synergies with early lvling aswell and better for lategame.[/quote]


Can i ask why not? Ive read alot of people are using Ice Nova/Fire Trap in races, how is leveling from start different? (You dont need to explain that is just a thought process).

Thanks for the quick reply though and keep up the good job, your builds are always fresh i would say im trying to watch your stream every chance i get :)

Nice to see you back in action, looking forward to see what's to come in 1.3
The build is looking pretty good with Flame surge in Rime Gaze.

I am actually playing a crit pledge of hands ice nova build (inspired by your crit arc build). It lacks a single target dps skill :(. I might try using pyre after seeing your build and make some changes to it.

Passive Tree

Big change to skilltree route over access to templar.
Was nice watching this build come together on his stream, so many deaths doe kappa :P

But really, nice build! Can verify it's going to be a mapwrecker :)

I have lvl 90 Nova Templar been trying to be a reincarnation 1.09 Nova sorcs form d2.
He has been RF nova, Taryn crit nova, fire nova. But untill recently it was just pretty bad and some flat out didnt work.
Been tinkering with Ice Nova since the end of dominion leauge and it was harsh times....

Since then a ton of small buffs has come over time like Cold to fire pyre ring (Fire easiest element to deal with reflect), Ice nova base dmg uppgrade, HERALDS lol Now my long time project is very similar to Foxtactics build.
Ice nova is not the kid that cannot run gem anymore!

And the best ways is there is tons of ways to do it too, whatever suits the player. Crit, Non crit fire or Rigtheous fire!

Going to be interesting to see the 1.3.0 make this even stronger (It sure wont be weaker)

Also, 10 times more fun to play this than arc :)

updated the thread with 1.3 skilltree, just copy paste the url and take a look at my build for the new content patch.

And YES, its stronger... less points needed, More fire penetration, more damage, more castspeed.

Hey Fox,

In regards to the new tree, you've got to take the Elementalist node in the Templar area and then remove the unnecessary 10% int node. Elementalist should also synergize well with the insane Celestial Punishment node.


Also, Storm Weaver looks pretty strong. 43% increased cold damge + 25% mana regen for 4 points. You think it's worth it?


And for the bandits, would it be:

Normal - Oak
Cruel - Alira
Merciless - point


Cheers!
