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!

Yeh i saw the 10 int node last night lol. fixed it

Still bit confused of which of the big DPS nodes its worth to take, im still thinking the ICE tree to the north might be better off than taking Celestial Punishment and storm weaver well see.

Storm weaves looks strong, but 43% and 25%.. if i dont need the mana then thats 43% for 4 nodes, barely 10% for each node, really bad value.

updated new rings, just need a new amulet

Big update.

How are you converting to fire? I see in the OP you're using Cold to Fire with two rare rings, is that better than Pyre? And how about Avatar of Fire? Or some combination of the three?

is this hc viable???????? Kappa

Im using Pyre ring, forgot to change it in the thread, changed now.

I swapped from cold to fire + avatar to just pyre because there are other gems that are better than cold to fire, such as cast speed and echo or conc effect.

Do you plan on running this in the new 3 month SC league and now seeing the new passive tree would you say this build reviewed a buff or a nerf? That is if the skill stays with the same stats?
I edited the tree a little for 1.3 let me know.

Yeh im totally running this in the 1.3 content patch, managed to get lvl87 in the 1 week race and was at rank60 or so, which is pretty ok for making a build while playing the race :D.

Did some rough numbers on this build.
In the 1.2 build its like 260% something spelldamage, in the 1.3 tree there is like 350% or so.
And a additional 10% castspeed, dont remember the exact numbers but it was between 70-100% more spelldamage.

And we all know Ice nova.. is not getting nerfed lol, so im in the clear to say 1.3 is a big buff to this build, no review needed. Unless something unforseen happends such as changes to lightning warp and the cursing system etc.

Hey Fox, love the build. I threw together a spreadsheet for the build and included as much information as I felt was necessary. I added a passive tree leveling section and a quest reward section to make it more noob friendly since it's a very cheap, easy to play, fun build. Let me know if you like it, and if there's anything you want to see added or removed. Feel free to use it in your post if you want to. Thanks!
