[3.11] Aquarism's Ice Shot [All Content]

Hey mate, I tried to copy this as best as I could with the currency I have in blight.
Currently missing a Hatred watcher's eye, Enlighten LVL4, and the shaped quiver. Using a voidfletcher and icebite instead of hypothermia to generate frenzy charges.
I'm racking up about quarter the DPS you have


Could you give me some tips on what to change in my gear? I feel like the ring and amulet could be better but I don't have the currency to find and multimod better ones.

what do you think about taking endless mutation instead of fast and deadly for one extra projectile


Even when using death opus (+2), shaped quiver (+1) and dying sun (+2) no helm enchant, we are firing 10 projectiles. the +1 from ascendency gives way less damage than fast and deadly.


dunno about that. Accuracy capping isn't a issue so the MORE accuracy is moot. So we're talking about some piddly increased damage and attack speed vs +1 projectile.

You're just kind of....wrong.


So here is what these two ascendency passive gives;

Fast and Deadly: 15% increased attack speed, 40% increased projectile damage, 50% more global accuracy rating, 100% increased blink and mirror arrow cooldown recovery speed.

Endless Munitions: 10% increased projectile damage, 10% increased global accuracy rating, +200 to accuracy rating, 50% increased area of effect, additional arrow.

We have 114% inc attack speed from the tree, including frenzy and onslaught, no gear, fast and deadly gives us 15% more. We fire 10 barrage projectiles with minimal investment, endless munitions give us 1 more.

Assuming accuracy is capped before taking either, then Endless Munition gives about .3% more DPS. However with uncapped accuracy, at 94%, fast and deadly gives 4.1% more DPS. this gap widens when you can have more arrows.

This is for Barrage only, for Ice Shot who does not benefit significantly from additional arrows, fast and deadly is superior. An argument can be made for Voidfletcher but it is not a core part of my build.

What I said in your quote was not my opinion but POB stats, I am happy to be proven wrong

you are over capped on resists, you can swap amulet for pandemonium. You also have not ticked your pob correctly. Cheaper upgrades should be abyss jewels, you want 4 affixes, put in a placeholder jewel while you wait for watchers eye.

With your current setup and everything ticked, adding void shot totals to about 8.7m DPS

Do you think this build would at ALL be possible as CI ?

Perhaps something like this, all gear should be evasion/es or pure es based. you should hit about 1.5k es from all your gear, about 5k es.

Drastic change to the tree, this is pure theory craft.

Great build, looks very fun!!

I tried to copy it, quite limited with currency atm, but I think I am only reaching half your dps, can you please have a look?

Hey i like your idea with Farrul's Fur.
I swaped some gems for barrage (you don't really need inc crit), rearanged your tree a bit, added Heart of Ice annoit on amulet and basically doubled your dps while keeping all of your items intact including Farrul's Fur.

Take a look:

Hey man, thanks for trying to fix the build, I actually played around with the items even a bit more. Using Farrul's bite as well, allows me to use my assassin marks ring

check it out :P

so far, I managed to delve close to 500 , starting to feel ice shot a bit lacking
Build is OP for sure, a bit of a glass cannon but then most stuff dies before it gets close. Managed to scrape in 5k life, it was tough getting that much!

does anyone know how I could scale my damage a little more?

while mapping I am at ~ 450k damage with Ice Shot and ~100k with Barrage...
I guess I don't have enough flat cold damage, right?

Any further suggestions to be better? I don't know my current DPS since I'm not that much acquainted with POB.



This is my current POB: https://pastebin.com/9yxf9uvC

Thanks in advance! Cheers!

You definitely need more items with increased critical strike chance!
Your Bow Gems:
I've never used Elemental Focus (instead I use Damage on Full Life Support) because it prevents Elemental Ailments... I'm not a pro but I guess a little chill/freeze/shock is always better than nothing.
Your Armour Gems:
I assume you use Ice Shot just for mapping. If you change Mirage Archer with Chain Support you'll kill everything in sight and even far out of your screen range. In my opinion Mirage Archer is too slow for this build.
I hope this helps a bit.
