1. More Damage against Chilled Enemies (Hypothermia Gem)
2. Slower Enemies. Good for Survive (Can Chill even if Unique Mob)

I'm on the edge of converting my juggernaut over to this build. It's just such a creative way to use chilling ground for both offense and defense. The multi from chilled ground combined with vaal lightning trap was just silly! It's also waaaaay cheaper than any of the other high-tier EQ builds out there!

That Village Ruin video did it for me. I currently can't take those bosses, they're just crazy.

Have you thought of putting Arctic Breath in there with the CWDT-Vortex links? Or would the chilled ground effect from it just not last long enough ya think?

edit: Also, I already have a 6-link chest, so I'd be able to use a different mace. The ones that I see I can afford (~1ex) seem to have more DPS but only because of attack speed. Are those still better than Marohi. Because it seems like scaling the DoT from large hits is where the damage is at.

I noticed a good roll rare mace has around the same attacks per second as a Marohi w/ Faster Attacks gem (~1.42aps). Would something like Rapid Decay work well instead of Faster Attacks?
I feel like I'm over thinking this... I re-read your gem links section, yes Rapid Decay is better.

SO I decided to roll a new character and picked Duelist Slayer for this build. And just while running through A2Cruel a random exalt dropped (my second this league :D ) so I'm all set to grab a voidheart when I get to the end build.

Buuut, just thought I'd comment on how crazy powerful the Hypothermia combo is with Facebreaker+Skirmish(quiver) and Ancestral Warchief. It's insane for leveling. I grabbed about 9 totem nodes(Ancestral Bond w/ a few others on the tree) and am absolutely punishing Act bosses which previously would have given me trouble. I can't use my end-build weapon until lvl 69 so I think I'll spend some chaos on an Abyssus to really throw down the deeps.

Really, if anyone hasn't tried Facebreaker Ancestral Warchief, do it.
