[3.6] The Blizz Sorc - Icestorm/Winter Orb CI Occultist - Viable For Everything
"uh, so in case of this particular item, what would proc 1st, BR or golem? | |
" In the white/yellow maps EL isn't really necessary, as long as you complete Uber Lab. I was killing everything including bosses with 1 staff without any gem swaps until I got the 2nd staff. And by the time you get into red maps you really should have 2 staves and the Uber Lab done. I went and added another optional swap for 1 staff setup: CD <-> EL. During leveling you definitely should swap LL for EL when you switch to CI. At that point you don't have Uber Lab (or maybe even Merc Lab) done, and you would be a lot safer with EL. | |
" BR. Doesn't really matter though. But from what I've read, it checks that socket first. | |
" Enchant your boots. Or don't link WO to more than 1-2 supports. Last edited by Kelvynn on Mar 18, 2019, 11:28:13 PM

This ammy will give me a lil over 10% more damage to winter orb and a lil bit of es/es leech. I would just need to use a ring with high dex and get a 30 str node/str ring. Will also lose some levels on cold pen/GMP/immortal call. Seems worth it over astramentis?
+30 to Intelligence -------- +8 to Intelligence Adds 8 to 15 Physical Damage to Attacks 10% increased Attributes 1% increased Damage per 15 Intelligence +8 to all Attributes (crafted) |

" Will try that.. thanks |

I have not played this game in a while (4-5 years), i started in the new league and got some help from a friend. But i am sucking very hard with this build. I was doing way better with pulse than winter orb.
No clue what i am doing wrong, but by the time i get WO running i eat a ton of damage and my mobility is terrible. I'm also running into a lot of mana issues sustaining 3 auras and i get killed by bosses constantly since i can't move around while trying to channel. I'm lvl 49 on act 5. This game is insanely complex if you did not play it since the start, i'm debating just going back to the pulse spell since switching to WO has made leveling very hard. I'm aware i'm terrible and it's my fault, but i dont know how to fix it. If anyone cares to lend me a hand, i would really appreciate it! Last edited by Noctrin on Mar 19, 2019, 2:05:12 AM

" You can also add the "-x to total mana cost of skills" mod to your rings. It's a syndicate mod (Elreon) so if you don't have it try to find a friend who does (I don't, someone from my guild added them to my rings) | |
" Open up your character page for us to look at under the privacy settings of your PoE Account. That way we can see your skilltree and gear. In general though, Act 5 is where the game starts to get rough. Try to have all your resistances capped to 75% and have life on all your gear pieces (I hope you did not spec into Chaos Innoculation yet). If you dont, dont forget that you can craft at the crafting station in your hideout. Use a 6 or 5 socket Whispering Ice. Only link WO to CwC, to reduce mana cost. If you need to, turn off one aura and use a mana flask. Dont know which auras you run, but try out what works. That being said, theres nothing from stopping you using Freezing Pulse further, if its more fun. You can switch to WI/WO later if you feel like it. Last edited by Maaster on Mar 19, 2019, 6:07:33 AM

Anyone got low ES gear to give away that they changed recently ? I'm having trouble since I made the switch.
I'm lvl 71 with only 2k ES. Getting oneshotted in rare T1... Or just tell me what's the best to upgrade right now :
