[On Hold] Glacial Cascade Totems [ALL Content in the Game]
Hi!
Thanks for the guide, i am trying to follow it in the new league, but i think some of the parts are quite confusing since it seems like the guide is wrote to inquisitor, but i found the guide under hierophant. I am hierophant and now level 67, i still can't decide what 6 links to put in my tabula, i think the "added fire damage" was meant for the inquisitor version no? It would be so nice if you would write up the best gem links for the hierophant for all slots. Edit, another one i really need to get clarification on is frost bomb? i have both frost bomb and elemental weaknes for manual cast, do i need both of those?

NOTE: Hierophants should strive to make Glacial Cascade a full cold spell. This means moving away from Physical to Lightning Support and Added Fire. This opens the path for Cold Penetration Support which will be a huge boon to your damage. Similarly finding Shaper mods that give "Gain % Physical as Extra Cold Damage" are prioritized over the other elements. | |
" Thanks a lot for clarifying this for me! | |
What's full 6L with soul mantle for hierophants?
thoughts? glacial cascade increase crit strikes cold pen faster casting controlled destruction( anything better? ) increase area of effect/ conc effect |
|
" I am interested to know this too. | |
Just remember that like added fire there is added cold, so you might wanna play with that a bit and see how it performs
|
|
" Added Fire adds dmg based on how much phys damage the baseline brings. Added cold doesnt. | |
" Im new to this build, just recently returned to PoE. Isnt controlled destruction a problem with the fact that we use crit? In any case, id love to know the correct 6link for Hiero's too. And does the orb of storms setup even make sense with Hiero's getting charges from placing totems? If not, what else to use? | |
" I am using :- Glacial Cascade Inc Crit Strikes Cold Pen Elemental Focus Conc Effect/Inc Area of Effect Spell Totem | |
" Best thing to do is to sim it in PoB with your gear. But here's a general priority- High gear (threshold jewels, some shaper mods, good crit): conc / inc ele focus / hypothermia cold pen controlled destruction inc crit / faster casting (damage slightly better with crit, mapping slightly smoother with fc) Low gear (no threshold, no shaper, meh crit): conc / inc added fire ele focus / hypothermia controlled destruction phys to light / inc crit (only use phys to light and ele focus together) I personally prefer the hypothermia route, for the added safety it gives while mapping. |
