That's the plan-ish. Sh!t usually dies in one hit like you say and the problem I've had is those tanky mob(s) or boss encounters where I was getting killed pre-hypothermia. Switching to your single target set up isn't all that quick and wanted another option. I like the idea of Chill and Freeze potential on those tankier targets.


New set of gloves

I will lock Suffix and Scour but need to build up currency again. Wondering what your thoughts are on these now.

Set-up - Shield Charge - Faster Attacks - Additional Accuracy - Fortify

Now I can add another two supports and I can't figure out how I want to go about this.

I like the idea of Blind to help with bosses, but no idea how that really works.

Thought about Curse on Hit and add Assasins Mark back in (removed from Ring, but the Ring I got is Godlike).

Curse on Hit & Poacher's Mark although instead of that, perhaps Melee Splash & Life Gain on Hit is better?!?

Considered Culling Strike & Onslaught for Attack Speed but seems a waste.

Or just go simple with Melee Physical Damage Support & Melee Splash Support.

Honestly, really not sure what way to go!"£$%

Yeah, I looked at Discharge with CwC. However, I wasn't sure if that would interfere with the base mechanics of the build and the synergy between both Heralds. And I don't know if it's correct to have a spell that's removing our charges, more importantly, Power Charges.

I'll keep theorycrafting and likely ask you more questions.

I liked the idea of the build but found I could maximise a bit more by going CI and switching it up a little, did some test runs (at char level 75 without uber lab)

Some of the gears involved, haven't gotten an assassins mark ring yet or maxed all my gems (and definitely needs about 10 more levels to feel comfy)

Hello, I applaud your efforts as you've definitely set up a working proof of concept over there, and at the same time I would have a very hard time listing the benefits of it.

It seems you didn't fancy the idea of a life-based character due to the 229 energy shield from The Coming Calamity, and then chose to forgo 1238 life from base stats, 100 from Headhunter, 70 from Aul's Uprising, and at least 79 from Strength needed for our gems, for a grand total of at least 1487 base life, of which you have 1. And that's fine, taking thematic decisions can spice up some characters, but I can't find a way to justify the tradeoffs.

Eventually after taking more ES nodes it'll easily sit around 6-7K ES, has chaos immunity, I don't have to path as far away to life nodes and such so can take more generic damage nodes and I get the advantage of spell leech, Energy Shield leech on both heralds (as they give a 40% more multiplier whilst leeching or 25% more at full ES)

The Discipline Aul's also has 50% increased critical strike chance to nearby enemies making me hit 80-90% crit chance (will be 100% with an Assassins Mark ring, which I've yet to get)

Tested it out on T16 Beachhead and cleared all the content without issue too.

Edit: Damagewise I think it's gonna be a little under yours due to not having the Socketed Gems deal 30% more elemental damage or level 20 innervate etc you have (which is awesome btw)

Hey Buddy, could give me some pointers ? I know the character level isnt that high and so im lacking much there. Also since i balanced wise oak at allready max res,( that was intendet since my playstyle doesnt always allow me to have enough flask stacks,) im lacking 1 jewel slot. Should i get rid of some other points to fit it in, or just invest the points in other good stats.
