Wanna bet ice crash has a higher effective single target damage multiplier than glacial hammer, exactly like static strike has over infernal blow, glacial hammer and lightning strike?

Too bad it doesn't work with claws. I wanted to do a Claw Reave Build with this as my Alternate skill.

Looks pretty good though.

I wish I can keep my Southbound pair for a bit of testing with this skill.

It's essentially Static Strike, ice version. The sound effects sounds too mechanical to me.

Can't be used with Daggers?

What the fuck?

Cold based melee attack, Cold melee meta in PoE is Dex based. Why is this a STR based gem?

I'm assuming this is not the skill Rory mentioned on Ziggys stream last week? Rory said specifically, a dex based melee cold gem would be added very soon.

IMO this skill just wouldn't even make sense with a dagger. Glacial Hammer is also a cold based melee attack and that's a strength gem. Why does it have follow some sort of guideline that you have given it to be dex based? I, personally, think the skill looks great!

Ice crash + Empire's Grasp + Increased AOE on a Carcass Jack I feel is going to be amazing.

It will be awesome with Facebreakers :D
I can't wait :D

unarmed love hype!

Ok, amazing. But we can see that even in the computer recorded, the casting is problematic. This is a serious problem about the game, you need to do some graphic optmization. My PC isn't good, but it should run this game. It does, until I get to some fights, like Dominus, or the fire boss from act 4. The rain itself, in the dominus fight, is a pain to my fps.
Would be nice if we had some changes in the way the game is loading some of it's graphics.

Hey,nice to see new skills being added.
I have a question to GGG though I don't think it will be answered.

Will the game content after 2.0 release be balanced with the fact that desync is gone?
I mean people with under 100 ms latency will be fine.

What about the rest of us using the old synch method?
Will the future of poe be a screen full of skill effects because desync is now "fixed"?
Thanks
