Looks nice. No ele overload? You would only need to spend 1 passive, and put an ice spear into the boots instead of ice bite.

Updated Tree - dropped a spell dmg node for ele overload since Ice Spear has the 600%crit second form. Thanks Markusz/Rlowe/Tommie!

Edit: will probably drop the spell damage by witch start for clear mind and another jewel

Ditched the cold cluster and picked up a few jewel slots.

Life went from 9.3k to 9.6k, and DoTps went from 44k to 46.5k yay!

I'm also scaled more for spell/ele damage now instead of just cold so I can use another element as an offhand in case of pathfinders using infinite ToH/aegis/PoI.

Will try to update main page later!

I decided to go for it and achieved 10k life while still maintaining 45.3k DoTps. Thinking about dropping dirty techniques though because I really don't like the duration it adds to lightning warp...



Need to replace last two, but I'm having to make all my own jewels so I'll take what I can get :D








Since I've ditched all Cold nodes on tree, I now am just scaling spell/ele/dot that opens me up to an offhand with another element:

5min in Sarn
"Oops I got more powerful"
Currently 46.5kDoTps
10,032 life

I like both Firebrand spot on comment and your sarcastic answer right after.

I wonder if anyone tried to used the counter dot leo mod.

If I was going give a peer review,

Leeeb.

Thanks for the notes! All are welcome and encouraged!

Hahaha icedeal, fire and I are friends, it's all good. Yeah battle of no t value DoT! At least ppl can use purity of ice/ToH/aegis against me, there's no purity of chaos/ToC/+6%max chaos shield. Also the rDoT mod is nice but I remember it mattering very little against caustic arrow when it was still powerful as poison arrow. The fact that you can only put it on shields and 2h weapons (i think?) is kind of limiting too because the aegis shield would be BiS against me I think and not many would want to devote a rDoT mod in their 2h unless it was to specifically counter this.



Leeeeeb :)

I'm using frost bomb in that vid. Yeah it's gg

Ascendancy choice is completely defensive and I want to do something different and I'm really digging it. Hiero/inq wouldn't help me that much and I wanted this char to be a templar.

Yes I tried pyre for a while, and it just wasn't worth it considering I'm wearing kaoms/scolds I need to remain tanky and devote my rings to res/life. The damage is already great.

I will definitely take the glove/curse/enchant notes into consideration though, but since pathfinders have wardings up 24/7 dual curse isn't a priority atm. But I still need enchants for sure.

Thanks for the rest of the notes I'll try it out!

What's making chaos cloud SRS so strong is not the lack of T value, it's the fact that damages from minions are not subject to the pvp damage reduction. Remember the one shot fire golem ? ^^ (strange that no one show up with a new variation of this build now that you can have 2 of them).

Ah thanks for clarifying :) yes

Speaking of which, anyone talked to stefan lately? That dude was the golem king haha

isn't t value = pvp reduction?
