[2.0.4]DonaldF's Cheap OP Freezing Pulse Totem 200k+ DPS/ All map viable + perma freeze boss

Fun build, but but how do you handle phys damage? Feels very glass cannon to me.



Sitting at 24k dps.

Tabula feels very very squishy. One fast moving phys mob = stun, the second...

Perhaps needs a party/better gears?

Hey there, I'm very interested in the build! I was wondering if you went for the +60 mana from Alira or the +40 life from Oak? I assume you took Oak.

But in the build says Freezing pulse damage :|

Look at the thread title, the picture and the leveling guide. It's a totem build. You're going to spec into Ancestral bond this early because you should be leveling with Flame Totem. It's cheaper and faster when it comes down to leveling.

But you have a few choices from here. You can still spec into Ancestral Bond and get a Flame Totem from the vendor in A1 or get a Spell Totem and link it with your Freezing Pulse.

Ok I have only been playing a couple weeks for forgive my possibly dumb questions but.

Its being nerfed_ Is that a joke? fact, or speculation?

If it does get nerfed what happens, the game refunds all your spec points or you are just left with a crap character?

Overall how expensive is this build? Can you get pretty high dmg fairly cheaply?

Thanks for the build! Im using dual flame totem right now and pretty much love it but my damage is nowhere near this.

Thank you very much for all your feedback.

As ogrec said. Gem level is really important for spell caster.
Also high spell damage + crit + life shield will boost your dps a lot.
This kind of shield isnt so expensive.

This is my first shield that i bought for only 2chaos.


>>HRDL
Hm... good physical melee shadow.
Crit Reave or Crit Cyclone ? Probably.
However i guess its very expensive :p


>>ParkerGG2
Its totem build. Flame Totem is really really strong skill in 2.0.0
So we take Ancestral bond in early level and use Flame Totem for leveling.
For me, I can level 80+ less than 20hours with dual Flame Totem. Its really fast I think.
And then we switch to Freezing Pulse totem for more DPS and survivability.


>>Dakilula
Cast when Damage Taken + Immortal Call + Increased Duration help a lot for physical damage.
This build isnt so tanky. In me case, i have 5.2k life , 800ES and almost no Armor and EV.
However, we can have very good DPS, perma freeze and Minions. DPS makes us safe.
So, 0.7 sec physical damage immune is enough long time for us imo.


>>Corvault
I helped Oak in normal. Life always help us a lot :D


>>gtrans
Thank you very much for your idea.
Spell Damage will not effect for added flat cold damage?
I've not calculated yet. But probably spell damage effect for added flat damage when using spell.
Your version will have more DPS but also have mana issue probably.
Casting spell and taking damage will disturb ES recharge.
I think that version need shavronne's ring for mana.
That ring is really expensive and lose 30% crit, 50 life and 70% resist from decent diamond ring.
Well, I've not tested your version. Its my guess.


>>Xexist
Will be nerf is kinda joke.
Well... All build that I made was nerfed :p
However I'm feeling OP for this build.
I dont know how GGG will balance skills in the future.
Buff weak skills? Or nerf OP skills?
This build is very cheap compared with other build.
We dont need any unique items. But Facebreaker boost our DPS a lot. well... 3c isnt expensive :D
All we need is "Searching skill" for find cheap good gears on poe.trade :p

Thanks for the reply!

So its a no-endurance charge IC. Never thought about that.

I've enjoyed the build but I cannot see how to solo higher level maps (77+). Hope you can post some videos.

Hey,

I see you use Raise Specter, Which specter do you use?
Thank you in advance
