ICE WITCH GUIDE (CI + FREEZING PULSE with LIFE LEECH 0.25 Cast Spd Per Pulse.)
" Aah I was looking at the tooltip and didn't see the increase but now I see it works on the char. :) |

I didn't look through the all the pages, but in the "cold-pen" support rune section, you said it's useless if you already drop enemy resis to 0%.
I thought that you could get mobs to drop BELOW 0%, as your character can as well. Or am I just saying some random crap here? IGN-Shibloble Got some spare time?

" it means that if u can drop a mob down to 0% cold resist with just a curse then it will be better to use added lightning dmg or chaos dmg or increased crit. mob can go negative % resistance also. My IGN : Xmu / TeeBones
BEST CI CHEST FOR MIRROR 1K ES + TRI RESIST http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/306743 My Ice Witch 0.25Sec Freezing pulse guide ~ http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/214705 | |
" Why? This statement is so false on so many levels: A level 15 cold penetration gives you a 30% damage increase NO MATTER what cold resistance the mobs have. Added lightning or added chaos will NEVER be better on 0% resist mobs. Actually it's the other way round: the higher the resist, the better ALD and ACD become. With max cold resist, your cold damage will shrink to 25% of its usual amount, whereas the absolute damage amount of ALD/ACD will stay the same. That means the % damage increase with ALD/ACD will be much higher vs high cold resist crowds than against 0 resist mobs. It might very well give you more than the 30% increase of cold penetration, but NOT against low resist mobs. |

is it a must to have only level 10 for clarity?
Leave me a PM :)

" yep above is a pretty good explanation " Its not a must but higher lvl means higher mana reserved and you need a good amount to keep spamming freezing pulse My IGN : Xmu / TeeBones

Is that 2500 ES suggestion before or after discipline is factored in?

" if ur referring to when to take CI then its 'after' but more ES is always better. My IGN : Xmu / TeeBones

Why did you skip over the Throatseeker circle of passive nodes (northwest of the Nimbleness nodes)? From what I calculated, each % of crit damage multiplier gave me around 7.5 extra dps, so 70%+ should be over 500 extra dps from that wouldn't it?
Also if you're going for Elemental Adaptation isn't it better to just connect to the Inner Force nodes from the top path which is 4 int nodes instead of the bottom 2 int 2 str nodes? |

" Crit multiplier shows the highest dps tooltip in the game but its only useful if u crit. If u wanna take these nodes then u need high crit chance for it to be useful since it cost like 5 points. If u take the top route , u will end up using more passive nodes to get to the templar tree but in return u get extra dps. But when you reach lvl 75+ , it becomes hard to lvl and every points after is very important. Your looking at too much offensive, a dead man does no damage. My IGN : Xmu / TeeBones
