[2.0 WIP] [Warbands] Non-Crit Arctic Breath | Good Clear Speed

AoE splash = quite nice for clearing maps. Mobs will be chilled or frozen. Single target DPS is good if you can get the boss to a wall. Fun to play!

Pros:
Lots of gem and armour choices.
High clear speed.
Has great single target DPS in some situations.
Projectiles travel fast and far so you can off screen some bosses.
Excellent for farming aqueducts and Voll.
Thornflesh isn't too bad with life leech.
Fun to play. Nice to look at.
Can do most map mods. Fracturing maps are fun.

Cons:
High Mana Cost, may have to use a mana potion.
Single target can be not so great at times especially against mobs like Rakango. Map Daresso may be troublesome.
Can be expensive since LC is more difficult to come by.
No life leech = thornflesh may kill you.
Ground Projectile, can't hit SRS from Kaom and the fire beyond boss.

AB - Spell Echo - GMP - Cold Penetration - choose 1 or 2: Life Leech/ Fork/Hypothermia/Slower Projectiles/Knock Back/Iron Will

Life Leech: I would probably use this in most builds. Too important.

Fork: The best support to boost clear speed in most maps. I was surprised on how well it worked with AB. Faster clear speed than Hypothermia in some situations.

Hypothermia: Great choice, more freeze chance. Best used in maps with >40% monster life mods. Useful against fat cold resistant mobs or other high HP mobs.

Slower Projectiles: Not a fan, but useable. Slower projectiles = projectiles don't travel as far = easier to die.

Knock Back: Extremely useful. AB against a wall = good dps, keeps monsters at a distance. The explosions from AB each have a chance to knock back.

Iron Will: Only use this if you use knock back as your 6th link. Switch IW in for clear in easy maps. Knock back in hard maps + map bosses/beyond bosses. You will have at least 180 strength.

I use (you don't have to use these):
Herald of Ice - Ice Bite - Curse on Hit - Warlord's Marks, Warlord's Mark helps with restoring life and mana, and endurance charges!

Flame Totem - Blind - Culling Strike - Increased Item Rarity, Blind makes it easier to survive.

Glacial Cascade - Echo - Faster Casting - Knock back, knock back monsters and map bosses to walls. Can be used for single target.

Enduring Cry - Clarity
