Hello Everyone, I'd like to share my first build ever.
Ofcourse it had to be the Glacial Cascade since there aren't many guides out there.



It's a simple build, but very effiecient when it comes to maps, i have done Atziri but be aware of reflect, other than that it was piece of cake.


Ascendancy: Deadly Infusion, Assassinate

Bandits
Normal: Oak +40HP
Cruel: Alira +5% Cast Speed
Merciless: Alira +1 to Maximum Power Charges

The key of the build: Critical Strike Chance, Critical Strike Multiplier and Cast Speed.


I'm running Dual wand, because of the easy Cast speed with it, the tree uses way to many skill points to get the Cast speed when you can take life nodes instead.

Equipment

Level 1 to 30 Tree

Keep in mind that i'm a relatively new player to PoE the build could probably be much better,
I will continue updating the guide as i progress myself, my goal is to refine the build some more.

I hope you like the build and if you need any help or have any questions feel free to ask me!

If there is anything that may improve the build, please share it in the posts, i want all the Feedback
and criticism i can get!
