I have no idea about Atziri mate, sorry.

Added new Glacial Cascade build.

Pardon my ignorance here but isn't your life a tad low? I also have an fper as well and even with the safety in freezing, having anything less than what I have now doesn't seem like a very good prospect.

EDIT: I see that you responded to someone else's criticism of low life by stating you're playing on STD. Even then, it seems kind of low. What is your current max hp if you don't mind me asking?

Am I cannot log-in right now to tell you the exact numbers but I do not remember to have any problems dealing with end game with this build. Lets note that the build was created 2 leagues ago, passive tree of shadow received massive changes and overall game changes including Heralds.

But in the end even if it's low what is the point of not going on crazy damage when you are playing Softcore. If you like plenty of HP and less DPS you can always go to Hardcore.

I'm curious as to why you didn't take Infused - the +1 power charge for shadow - however used a "highway" int node to get Overcharge - power charge on the templar side. You can either save a point and still get +6 pc's or lose 1 point somewhere else for a 7th.

How would you augment your passive tree if you would only use 1 dagger/wand and a spirit shield? Gonna try this build out as I'm just coming back to POE after a few months away, thanks for your time and nicely put together explanation of things in this build as well, good job man :-)

It's possible that there was been a mistake when placing the builder in there. Of course that I also took the Shadow power charge nearby. Once the new tree is up I'll update all the information once again.

Thank you for noticing.

Hey,
I think there shouldn't be much of a difference with or without spirit shield in offhand you just choose between having more Mana regeneration and resist's or having more damage.

Thank you for choosing this build guide and for your kind words.
