[3.17] The Frozen Garden - Elementalist Permafreeze Arc Mines (3.17 partial, recommend self cast)

They also aren't YOU. So while some spell support gems will affect them if they are themselves casters, things like cast speed on your tree and gear won't. Auras affect them while in range, Heralds and buffs on you don't, etc.

Think of them as party members you create with a spell.

Im probably too bad at the Game, but im reaching lvl 80, 3 labs done, decent Gear i'd say, clusters are almost ready aswell and I just get randomly oneshot and the freezing for me doesnt happen frequently enough... Ultimatums are an experience I dont want to have on yellow maps atm.

I just looked at your character, and it looks fine to me *shrug*.

I'd look into Glorious Vanity and the chest unveil for es. Hybrid is a massive boost to survival here. Another thing is the 6L, to Freeze better and kill faster.

Uber Lab too, big defense power.

Other than that, probably your playstyle is too aggressive, move more. Dead is 0 dps.

Uber Lab is what I will prolly do today, so yea thats a defensive layer for sure. 6 Link is a bit off still, since yea.. its 5+ex or so atm and I have 2 saved up. Glorious Vanity and Unveil for the Chest is mainly defensive aswell right? I feel like once I enter red maps I will have a bossing Issue if I dont perma freeze them.

When I started red maps, I was using 5L tremor, no glorious vanity, worse gear or similar to the gear you are using and I was doing just fine. Do you pre-stack on bosses?

This was my gear on lvl 80: https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds/char/CrazylikE/CrazylikeTheGambler?i=11&search=class%3DElementalist&time-machine=day-1

lvl 87: https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds/char/CrazylikE/CrazylikeTheGambler?i=11&search=class%3DElementalist&time-machine=day-2

I assume you are talking about map bosses. You should be able to permafreeze them with enough crit, but you shouldn't have to. If you pre-stack, they should be dead before they can do anything. If you are talking about higher tier of bosses like conquerors etc, you can't freeze them, only chill.

Is Expedition's End worth a price? Its actually at 1,5 ex. I will swap helmet for one with resist and hp. Or just looking for Glorious Vanity?

I dont have problems with T16 already and i like the perma freeze thing (love it). But stil i have more mines that i want (i mean the detonation is slow af).

Can someone show me the way? :)

Expedition's End is bad imo. You can get a lot more out of a chest than a helmet in terms of survivability and you already freeze everything that can be frozen afaik.

Just look at this for example:

It's less dps/defense by using it, even less life. Basically it's a shortcut to permafreeze for top end bosses. Might be worth it, but if you Freeze anyway, it's plain worse.

Wheneever I pre-stack on bosses, the sequence doesnt really go off. So I end up playing bosses like regular mapping mobs and just spam mines onto it. Tremor rod really feels clunky for stacks. :/ But i'll just need to get better atm.
