[3.11] Aquarism's Ice Shot [All Content]

Now a topic from my own.

Does anyone played a bit with this voices cluster? I mean the jackpot one... yea this 300ex one.. with 1 note...sounds amazing.. 3 jewel slots for more clusters .. or abyss.. or both.. omg ^^

I need to buy one.. my poor currency :)

Hey , I posted my gear few posts ago and received some advice from you Mekrat about quiver about frenzy charges ( dont know why i thought more arrows withour frenzy would be better ) , upgraded it to better one for 9 ex .

And now my build looks like this


Was also checking your gear Mekrat should i follow and buy what you have ?
Any advice to my gear ?
I have alocated Graceful Assault on my amulet however i bought jewel that has chance to generate onslaught. What would be the best choice/choices to change this ?
Thinking about changing my ring to have one with aspect of the spider , just to not make any mistakes this aspect of the spider reserves mana so i need to have enlighten lvl 3 with my hatred and herald ?
and to get assasins mark on ring also .
This is of what im thinking to upgrade right now , and to follow your build .
But if you have any advice please share

Hello,
I would like to thank you for the great work with this build, with the post in the forum very detailed, it helped me a lot to understand some mechanics of the game, thank you very much.

When you can, look at my gear and tell me how I can improve, if I'm on the right track or where I'm going wrong, I would like to kill Sirus with it.


My Gear


Quick question: Which BOW is better among these options I have?

NOTE: Sorry, english is not my native language.
Thanks.

To make this clear. Its not my build and I play a different version of an ice shot build. I just use this thread to talk and discuss the ice shot build mechanic.

For your gear atm I would suggest to change your evasion flask to a Diamond flask (crit chance is lucky)

The next not to expsenive change could be new gloves with the incursion mod more dmg against chilled enemies.. (more dps than the gripped gloves in pob)

My onslogutht sources are the cinderswallow flask and an abyss jewel (jewel only grants on kill)

A big dmg boost is comeing from assa mark on hit and the aspect mod.

To make that clear here again. If you want to cast herald of ice, apsect of the spider, hatred and precision lvl1 with enlighten lvl 3 you will not have enough mana for 2 shots. For some guys its ok to deal with it. For me its not really smooth and I use a reduced mana mod for hatred on my amulett.

Keep that in mind.

Was considering making an upgrade to something in my gear but I don't know what should be the priority. Currently I deal just over 3 mil dps (barrage) in POB which is good enough to melt t16 bosses(for me at least) Here is my gear:

Thats my gear for now,killing boss really fast but requires high budget.Amulet can be upgraded into better rare version i guess.

I've been leveling up a character with this build, I'm just starting Act 6 and got couple of questions. I've been using Roth's Reach (Barrage) and Tabula Rasa (Ice Shot), but I kind of feel that my damage is a bit low with Ice Shot. Should I replace Roth's Reach with something else as I've been using it for a while now and not really using Barrage that much anyway?

Roth's Reach +1 Chain bonus applies only to socketed skill, which is Barrage in my case, instead of being a global modifier and applying to Ice Shot too which is in Tabula Rasa?

Ice Shot is socketed with the "Clear" setup in PoB.

Just buy a Death's Opus, you can already use it - there really is no reason not to since you are above level 44 already. Note that it is very cheap to buy Opus 6-linked, so I suggest doing that. It will multiply your damage by... a lot.
And yes, the chain on Roth's Reach affects all your skills, no matter where they are socketed or gained from.

Edit: To make that clear, buy a Death's Harp with 6 linked sockets and The Bowstring's Music and complete the prophecy to get a 6-linked Death's Opus for below 40c.

Thanks for replying. I'll consider buying Death's Harp with the Prophecy or Death's Opus. It's just that I didn't manage to gather too much of currency on the previous character in this league. But Death's Opus should be useful weapon deep into the end game and Maps though?

I did also try switching Chain and Barrage Support gems for Icy Shot and it turns out that the difference in Single Target is pretty huge, even though it didn't seem like that by just comparing the Skill Gems to each other.

so i used some lady drunken luck. got these.

Time to do some more corona-craft
